Resolution on Obergefell
This Montana joint resolution expresses the state legislature's opposition to the U.S. Supreme Court's Obergefell v. Hodges decision, which legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. The bill calls on the Supreme Court to reverse that ruling and restore the traditional definition of marriage as a union between one man and one woman. It does not change any laws or alter legal rights; instead, it serves as a formal statement of legislative sentiment and requests that the Secretary of State send a copy of the resolution to the Supreme Court. The resolution reflects the Montana Legislature's view that marriage regulation should remain a state authority rather than a federal mandate.
