AI Summary

  • Concurrent resolution urging the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn Obergefell v. Hodges (2015), which established constitutional protections for same-sex marriage nationwide

  • Argues the Obergefell decision violates states' rights to regulate marriage, citing United States v. Windsor (2013) which recognized marriage as "a virtually exclusive province of the states"

  • References Mississippi's 2004 ballot initiative defining marriage as between one man and one woman, which passed with 86% voter support

  • Claims the decision was illegitimate due to alleged judicial bias, asserting Justices Ginsburg and Kagan should have recused themselves under 28 U.S. Code § 455

  • Directs the Secretary of the Senate to forward a certified copy of the resolution to the U.S. Supreme Court
