Arguments Conclude In Utah Case, Tenth Circuit Court Judges Appear Split

Freedom To Marry head Evan Wolfson writes:

“Today marked a new chapter in the campaign to win the freedom to marry. We now begin a wave of federal appellate arguments and rulings that set the stage for national resolution by the Supreme Court. Once again it became clear in the light of a courtroom that there is no good reason for perpetuating the denial of the freedom to marry. We hope the 10th Circuit affirms what so many lower courts and a majority of the American people have concluded: it’s time to live up to the constitutional command of equality and end marriage discrimination in the United States.”
