THE SUPREME COURT HAS REJECTED A CALL TO OVERTURN ITS LANDMARK DECISION THAT LEGALIZED SAME-SEX MARRIAGE NATIONWIDE.

 

THE JUSTICES ON MONDAY TURNED AWAY AN APPEAL FROM A FORMER KENTUCKY COURT CLERK WHO REFUSED TO ISSUE MARRIAGE LICENSES TO SAME-SEX COUPLES AFTER THE SUPREME COURT’S 2015 RULING.

 

CLERK KIM DAVIS HAD BEEN TRYING TO GET THE JUSTICES TO OVERTURN A LOWER-COURT ORDER THAT SHE PAY $360,000 IN DAMAGES AND ATTORNEY’S FEES.

 

JUSTICE CLARENCE THOMAS HAS URGED HIS COLLEAGUES TO OVERTURN THE SUPREME COURT'S MARRIAGE DECISION, MUCH AS THEY DID IN 2022 WHEN THE HIGH COURT OVERTURNED THE RIGHT TO ABORTION.
