Florida Sen. Marco Rubio said in an interview with CNN Wednesday that if the Supreme Court eventually rules that same-sex marriage is constitutional, Americans would have to abide by that ruling. He said, "I wouldn't agree with their ruling, but that would be the law of the land that we would have to follow until it's somehow reversed — either by a future Supreme Court, or a U.S. constitutional amendment, which I don't think is realistic or foreseeable." He said he expects the question "is ultimately going to find its way to the U.S. Supreme court," noting that many federal courts have recently issued rulings overturning state bans on gay marriage. Indeed, many court watchers expect the Supreme Court to take up a case on that very issue this month, and potentially deliver a ruling this Spring.
When do you think the Supreme Court will make a decision on gay marriage?
I think that they won't ever make a decision because of they agree with the lower courts they don't really have to make a say on it.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Caitlyn, their referrals to lower court decisions are probably enough of a decision. If they ever do, they will clearly be making the same decision that the district courts did anyways. And I'm glad to see that Rubio is finally accepting defeat.;)
ReplyDeleteA lot of lower district courts are making decisions and rulings and eventually I think will make it to the supreme court and when it does it's going to be huge. Expect it within the next two years maybe.
