Prof. Heather Elliott says the U.S. Supreme Court’s actions on gay marriage suggest it will rule in favor of marriage equality.
“The United States Supreme Court will decide before Independence Day – July 4th, 2015 – whether same-sex couples have the right to marry throughout America,” Elliott wrote in a blog post for the London School of Economics and Political Science. “The Court’s recent actions suggest that it will rule in favor of marriage equality: the Justices have permitted marriages between same-sex couples to proceed in the more than twenty states in which lower federal courts have struck down laws banning so-called ‘gay marriage,’ rather than holding off those marriages pending the Court’s decision.”
