A Decade On: Same-Sex Marriage at 10 Years, Still Under Scrutiny
A Decade On: Same-Sex Marriage at 10 Years, Still Under Scrutiny
Ten years ago yesterday, on June 26th, 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court delivered a landmark ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges, affirming the constitutional right to same-sex marriage across the nation. This pivotal decision, which cemented the legality of same-sex unions that began with early legal challenges in states like Massachusetts, marked a historic turning point for LGBTQ+ rights in America.
While public support for marriage equality has grown significantly over the past decade, the tenth anniversary of this ruling arrives amidst a complex and often challenging landscape for LGBTQ+ protections. Despite the established legal precedent, advocates and rights groups continue to navigate legislative efforts and judicial scrutiny that could impact the future of these hard-won rights, underscoring that the battle for full equality remains an ongoing discourse.
