Supreme Court rejects long-shot effort to overturn same-sex marriage ruling

The court turned away an appeal filed by Kim Davis, a former county clerk in Kentucky who was sued after refusing to issue a marriage license to a gay couple.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Monday turned away a long-shot attempt to overturn the landmark 2015 ruling that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide.

Without comment, the justices rejected an appeal brought by Kim Davis, a former county clerk in Kentucky who was sued in 2015 for refusing to issue marriage licenses because of her opposition to same-sex marriage based on her religious beliefs.

Her latest appeal in the case, brought a decade later, had attracted considerable attention amid fears that the court could overturn the 2015 same-sex marriage decision, Obergefell v. Hodges, in the aftermath of the 2022 ruling that overturned the landmark abortion rights decision, Roe v. Wade. (snip-MORE, with video on the page)

    1. Yes, indeed. It is good news today. And for a while, as you say! I guess if this comes back to life, it will show what that conservative ACLJ or whichever firm is concerned about, and how much money they have to throw around like that.

      While people are hungry, and don’t care who they sit next to at food tables or bathrooms.
