U.S. Supreme Court Decision Same-Sex Marriage

Obergefell v. Hodges, 14-556
JUSTICE KENNEDY delivered the opinion of the Court filed June 26, 2015. Below are excerpts from the opinion.

The Constitution promises liberty to all within its reach, a liberty that includes certain specific rights that allow persons, within a lawful realm, to define and express their identity. The petitioners in these cases seek to find that liberty by marrying someone of the same sex and having their marriages deemed lawful on the same terms and conditions as marriages between persons of the opposite sex.
