Happy Equality Day - June 26
We celebrate these landmark Supreme Court rulings that were released on this day in the following years...
2003 - Lawrence v. Texas which struck down all anti-so**my laws. Hawai‘i repealed its so**my law in 1972.
2013 - US v. Windsor which struck down section 3 of the so-called "Defense of Marriage Act” (DOMA) and allowed for federal recognition of same-sex couples married under state law. This ruling led to Hawai‘i legalizing Marriage Equality on December 2, 2013.
2015 - Obergefell v. Hodges which brought Marriage Equality to all 50 states and US Territories. The ruling was later codified into law on December 13, 2022 when President Joe Biden signed the bi-partisan bill named the Respect for Marriage Act into law.
