On Monday, the US Supreme Court, without discussion or separate opinions from the justices, rejected the request of Kim Davis, a former Rowan County clerk in Kentucky who once refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, citing her religious beliefs. Davis sought to use the lawsuit against her as a pretext to overturn the 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges decision, which guaranteed the right to marriage for same-sex couples in all US states.<\/p>\n

Despite the hopes of those advocating for a review, the court showed no interest in opening the case \u2014 even after a change in the composition of the judges, where a conservative majority of 6 to 3 now prevails.<\/p>\n

The only judge who previously called for a review of this precedent remains Clarence Thomas. In 2022, after the overturning of the federal right to abortion, he stated that the court should "reconsider" other decisions, including the legalization of same-sex marriage. At the same time, Justice Samuel Alito then emphasized that "nothing in this opinion casts doubt on other judicial precedents unrelated to abortion."<\/p>\n

Thus, the right to same-sex marriage in the US remains valid and protected despite attempts to challenge it.<\/p>\n
