Obergefell v. Hodges: Same-Sex Marriage (2015)

#OnThisDay in 2015, the US Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that the right to marry is guaranteed to same-sex couples under the 14th Amendment of the United States Constitution. The product of a three-year court battle challenging state-level bans on same-sex marriage, the landmark decision by the Supreme Court in Obergefell v. Hodges requires all US states to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, while recognising same-sex marriages performed in other jurisdictions, officially making marriage equality the law of the land across the United States and its territories.
