Original question: As you may know, the 2015 Supreme Court Case Obergefell v. Hodges requires all states to perform and recognize the marriages of same-sex couples. Would you like to see the Supreme Court overturn its Obergefell v. Hodges decision, which would mean states would no longer be required to perform and recognize same-sex marriage?
