Texas constitution may prevent same-sex marriages in the future despite landmark federal law

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : It's not the only state with a constitutional ban on same-sex marriages, but the Respect for Marriage Act, which gained bipartisan support, means every state will have to treat marriage equally, regardless of what the Supreme Court decides.
45% : "They could not deny benefits to same-sex couples who are married."
43% : "When it appeared to some people that the Supreme Court might consider at some point down the road overruling its decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, it became a major concern that same-sex marriages would suddenly not be legal."
41% : If the U.S. Supreme Court ever overturns the 2015 decision that granted same-sex couples the right to marry, even with the new law, new same-sex couples may have to go out of state to be married in the future, and existing same-sex couples may not be recognized, meaning they could be forced to go out of state and get married again.
37% :Earlier this year, the conservative court overturned 50 years of abortion rights across America, instilling concern in same-sex couples.
