BREAKING NEWS: Supreme Court Rules, Nationwide, Gay Couples Have Right to Marry

In a 28-page report today, June 26, 2015, the Supreme Court ruled that gay couples have the right to marry. According to the 14th Amendment, that guarantees equal protection and due process, justices found states must issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples and recognize same-sex unions that were legally performed in other states. The the majority opinion was delivered by Justice Anthony Kennedy and also joined by Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Elena Kagan, Stephen G. Breyer and Sonia Sotomayor.

“Gay and lesbian couples already could marry in 36 states and the District of Columbia. The court’s 5-4 ruling means the remaining 14 states, in the South and Midwest, will have to stop enforcing their bans on same-sex marriage,” reports AP.

“The Supreme Court on Friday delivered an historic victory for gay rights, ruling 5-4 that the Constitution requires that same-sex couples be allowed to marry no matter where they live and that states may no longer reserve the right only for heterosexual couples,” reports the Washington Post.  “Advocates called it the most pressing civil rights issue of modern times, while critics said the courts had sent the country into uncharted territory by changing the traditional definition of marriage,” they report.

President Barack Obama is the first president to support marriage equality, which he first supported in 2012.  The Democratic party also made this it’s platform in 2012.  The Republican Party continued to oppose gay marriage, and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Wisconsin Gov.
