I thought same sex and interracial marriage was already legal
What do I know I thought interracial and same sex marriage was already legal.
https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/29/politics ... index.html
"Washington CNN —
The Senate on Tuesday passed legislation to protect same-sex and interracial marriage, called the Respect for Marriage Act, in a landmark bipartisan vote.
The final vote was 61-36. The bill was supported by all members of the Democratic caucus and 12 Republicans, the same dozen GOP members who backed the bill for a procedural vote earlier this month. .....While the bill would not set a national requirement that all states must legalize same-sex marriage, it would require individual states to recognize another state’s legal marriage. "

It was legal based on an interpretation by SCOTUS of the right to privacy. The same way that abortion was legal. We all know what happened there. Passing an actual law is supposed to prevent the same thing from happening again. Also at risk is a right to birth control.

You would think we would be passed this in 2022 but a law is better than some court ruling as HeidiHoe said
Live and learn I have never heard of an interracial couple being denied a marriage license in my life time.
From way i understood it on the news yesterday, its not actually a law legalising same sex marriage across the country but a law stating that each state must legally recognise same sex marriages from other states
That way if the supreme court do decide to kick it back to the state level (like they did with abortions) then those states that decide to ban it will still have to legally recognise marriages from other states
They are basically trying to make it harder for the supreme court to drag America back to the stoneage. Unfortunately, unlike politicians those supreme court justices are there for life so its not like you can vote them out or anything
If you ask me, its crazy that the USA is having to fight civil rights that are granted to pretty much every other democracy in the world.

It is a show over nothing, every body today knows people can marry any other person they want, who needs a law to say interracial couples can get married.
Thinking you know how the president can do Executive Orders[u/] anything he wants?
Then why not pass a EO to make all marriages federally recognized?

EO's can be changed by subsequent POTUS. It's a temporary bandaid. This calls for congressional action to solve.

Traditional marriage rates are on the decline why would gay couples want to get married.
Stop looking for reps if they don't care why waste your time and traffic at their program, fuck that.

Honestly I think marriage is for individuals to decide not the state or anyone else.

Makes you wonder why it has not been legalized years ago world wide.
