What was the Supreme Court case that legalized same sex relationships?
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

Obergefell v. Hodges, 576 U.S. 644 (2015) (/ˈoʊbərɡəfɛl/ OH-bər-gə-fel), is a landmark civil rights case in which the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the fundamental right to marry is guaranteed to same-sex couples by both the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. The 5–4 ruling requires all fifty states, the District of Columbia, and the Insular Areas to perform and recognize the marriages of same-sex couples on the same terms and conditions as the marriages of opposite-sex couples, with all the accompanying rights and responsibilities.[2][3]

Between January 2012 and February 2014, plaintiffs in Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennessee filed federal district court cases that culminated in Obergefell v. Hodges. After all district courts ruled for the plaintiffs, the rulings were appealed to the Sixth Circuit. In November 2014, following a series of appeals court rulings that year from the Fourth, Seventh, Ninth, and Tenth Circuits that state-level bans on same-sex marriage were unconstitutional, the Sixth Circuit ruled that it was bound by Baker v. Nelson and found such bans to be constitutional.[4] This created a split between circuits and led to a Supreme Court review.

Decided on June 26, 2015, Obergefell overturned Baker and requires all states to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples and to recognize same-sex marriages validly performed in other jurisdictions.[5] This established same-sex marriage throughout the United States and its territories. In a majority opinion authored by Justice Anthony Kennedy, the Court examined the nature of fundamental rights guaranteed to all by the Constitution, the harm done to individuals by delaying the implementation of such rights while the democratic process plays out,[6] and the evolving understanding of discrimination and inequality that has developed greatly since Baker.[7]

Prior to Obergefell, same-sex marriage had already been established by law, court ruling, or voter initiative in thirty-six states, the District of Columbia, and Guam.[3]

The Stamp Act was passed in 1774 as punishment for the Boston Tea Party. The Stamp Act shut down Boston Harbor. True False
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The Boston Tea party was an American protest initiated by the Sons of Liberty in Boston Harbor, 1773.

The Stamp act of 1765 was a taxation law enacted by congress with the intention to profit off of colonial taxation.

The Stamp act of 1765 was not a repercussion of the Boston Tea party but rather a benefactor of the Boston Tea party. The Stamp Act and many other  taxations imposed by the British parliament seemed unfair to the American colonists; they felt they had no voice or opinion due to there being no colonist representatives in parliament. Naturally, they revolted (The Boston tea party) in defiance against taxations. The Boston tea party had an enormous impact spreading feelings of patriotism and independence nationwide, ultimately sparking the American Revolution.

I hope this clears things up.
