Missouri House Concurrent Resolution 49 formally rejects the U.S. Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges decision, which legalized same-sex marriage nationwide

Calls upon the U.S. Supreme Court to reverse Obergefell and restore the definition of marriage as between one man and one woman

Asserts that marriage regulation is a state matter, citing Missouri's 2004 Amendment 2 which defined marriage as between one man and one woman with approximately 71% voter approval

Argues the Obergefell decision was illegitimate, claiming Justices Ginsburg and Kagan should have recused themselves under 28 U.S.C. Section 455 for previously officiating same-sex weddings

Directs the Chief Clerk of the Missouri House of Representatives to send an inscribed copy of the resolution to the U.S. Supreme Court
