Bill Summary
MARRIAGE -- States findings of the Legislature and calls upon the Supreme Court of the United States to reverse the decision in Obergefell v. Hodges and restore the natural definition of marriage, a union of one man and one woman.
AI Summary
This Joint Memorial expresses the Idaho Legislature's findings that the Supreme Court's decision in *Obergefell v. Hodges* (2015), which legalized same-sex marriage nationwide, is contrary to the U.S. Constitution and foundational principles, arguing it misinterprets "liberty" and the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, and infringes upon states' rights to define marriage. The memorial asserts that marriage has historically been understood as a union between one man and one woman for over two millennia and calls upon the Supreme Court to overturn *Obergefell v. Hodges*, thereby returning the authority to regulate marriage to individual states and their citizens.
