Doesn't this go against supreme court rulings? Even if it passes, there is no way that it won't be checked by the judicial branch.

I don’t know if this helps: but I grew up in rural Bible Belt TN and myself as well as nearly everyone else I grew up with do not align with these policies. We vote blue blue blue. I think these are the dying breaths of the Republicans having control there. It’s ugly now but I think change is so close. I hope it is

That’s the thing. They hope this’ll go up to the SCOTUS, and its conservative extremist judges will overturn gay and interracial marriage. Altho… idk how this’ll jive against the recently passed Respect for Marriage Act - which finally secured gay and interracial marriage into law

90% of marriages in Tennessee are gay or interracial? I seriously doubt that, not even in California :rip:

This is what I was thinking. Going for the queer community is low hanging fruit,. But interracial marriage?!

This is deeply disturbing. What the ****!!

The RfMA didnt fully secure it unfortunately, which is why some dems have had issues with it. It requires states to recognize out of state gay and interracial marriages if obergefell or loving fell (meaning a state that has banned gay marriage would still have to fully recognize marriages that have happened in a state that does have it legal). I dont see this bill fully becoming law in the state, the senate and governor are psychos, but this would be really pushing it. If it does pass it wont stick. I dont personally think republicans have enough votes in the SC to overturn obergefell, but I dont want them to be given the chance.
