MS SC542

Calls upon the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the Obergefell v. Hodges decision and restore state authority to regulate marriage and its dissolution.

Argues that Obergefell misinterprets the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and contradicts the original meaning of liberty as understood by the Framers.

Asserts that marriage regulation is a state matter, citing that Mississippi voters approved a definition of marriage as the union of one man and one woman in 2004 with 86% support.

Claims the Obergefell decision is illegitimate due to Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Elena Kagan having previously officiated same-sex weddings and thus lacking impartiality.

Directs the Secretary of the Senate to send a certified copy of this resolution to the Supreme Court of the United States.
