The Ruth Institute files a Friend of the Court brief

Posted on Thursday, April 09, 2015

The Ruth Institute and I, filed a Friend of the Court brief to the US Supreme Court for the upcoming marriage cases, called Obergefell v Hodges. 

We are not hopeful of a good outcome in this decision. Nonetheless, we filed a brief for these reasons: 

  1. To give the dissenters some ammunition. 
  2. To go on the record, and speak to history. 
  3. We didn't want anyone to say, "We had no idea these things might happen." 
  4. To let children of future generations know that someone was thinking of them. 

Read the whole brief here.
