The Tennessee House of Representatives passed a controversial bill Thursday that would allow private citizens and organizations to refuse to recognize same-sex marriages without facing punishment.
The 14th Amendment says no State can “deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws”. This bill is literally saying it will protect some marriages and not others. DOA.
I mean, that would be nice if it was true, but there are enough fascists in control of enough legislative and judicial bodies that it’s not a guarantee.
