Hillary Clinton Urges LGBTQ Couples to Marry Before Supreme Court Threatens National Rights. Hillary Clinton warns the Supreme Court may overturn Obergefell v. Hodges, the ruling that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. Speaking on the “Raging Moderates” podcast, Clinton urged unmarried same-sex couples to “consider getting married” now. She compared potential action on gay marriage to the court’s reversal of Roe v. Wade, saying it could return marriage decisions to individual states. Clinton highlighted decades of Republican efforts aimed at rolling back LGBTQ rights in the U.S. Kim Davis, the former Kentucky clerk jailed in 2015 for refusing same-sex marriage licenses, has formally asked the Supreme Court to revisit Obergefell. If overturned, same-sex marriage would still be protected by the 2022 Respect for Marriage Act, which requires federal and state recognition of existing marriages. Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito have voiced opposition to Obergefell, signaling potential challenges to national marriage rights. Alito warned that Americans with traditional religious beliefs could be labeled as bigots under current law. Public support for same-sex marriage remains high, though Republican support has dipped to 41–56 percent in recent polls. Clinton stressed that while existing marriages are likely safe, the nationwide legal right to same-sex marriage could be at risk.
