Whitewater family joins Bidens at White House as same-sex marriage bill signed into law

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : The family played an earlier role in the decades-long fight for marriage equality: Their daughters were interviewed as part of an amicus brief for the Obergefell case.
47% : WASHINGTON - A Whitewater couple and their two children stood at the front of a crowd of thousands on the White House South Lawn on Tuesday afternoon as President Joe Biden signed into federal law landmark legislation codifying same-sex and interracial marriage protections.
47% : That effort was propelled after the Supreme Court decision in June to overturn the Roe v. Wade decision protecting abortion rights, when Justice Clarence Thomas suggested the court should "reconsider" its previous due process precedents, including the 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges case that found the Constitution guarantees a right to same-sex marriage.
44% : The new law requires states to recognize marriages that are considered valid in the state where they were performed but would not mandate states to allow same-sex couples to marry, should the Obergefell decision be overturned.
