It's on! The Supreme Court has set the date of April 28 to hear oral arguments in several cases that challenge statewide bans on same-sex marriage.
Here are the two questions attorneys will spend two and a half hours exploring:
• Does the Fourteenth Amendment require a state to license a marriage between two people of the same sex?
• Does the Fourteenth Amendment require a state to recognize a marriage between two people of the same sex when their marriage was lawfully licensed and performed out-of-state?
Same-sex marriage is
currently legal in 37 states. The court is expected to issue a ruling on the cases in June.
