Hodges*, which established the right to same-sex marriage nationwide, or to return full authority over marriage policy to the states. Additionally, it reaffirms existing Oklahoma constitutional and statutory provisions defining marriage. This resolution expresses the Oklahoma Legislature's stance on marriage and its desire for a change in federal judicial precedent.
