Supreme Court declines to revisit landmark same-sex marriage ruling
TL;DR Summary
The Supreme Court declined to revisit its 2015 landmark decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, which recognized a constitutional right to same-sex marriage, thereby maintaining the precedent amid concerns from conservatives about potential reversals. The case involved Kim Davis, a Kentucky clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples due to religious objections, but the court's decision to deny her appeal does not set a new legal precedent.
