Texas will now let judges refuse to marry same-sex couples if it goes against their religion

    Who needs them? Find a Unitarian, United Church of Christ, Presbyterian Church USA, Evangelical Lutheran Church of America or United Methodist Church pastor and they can officiate for you. Get your marriage license and contact a minister from one of these denominations and you can get married without needing a judge.

    That's why Project 2026 explicitly details how to overturn Obergefell v Hodges.

    So we’re just ignoring SCOTUS precedent now.
