This morning, in a historic decision, the Supreme Court ruled 5 - 4 in favor of same-sex marriage in the Obergefell v. Hodges case. This ruling outlines that all states must recognize same-sex marriage, and no state may pass laws discriminating against same-sex marriage.Evaluation and assessment is currently underway to determine how this decision may impact the work of General Convention and pending resolutions.This decision in no way alters our current diocesan policies, which can be found on this page of our diocesan website. However, we will carefully evaluate the implications of this decision and assess how it may or may not alter our diocesan policies in the near future.
