Same-sex marriage

Ten years ago today, a Pulaski County Circuit Court Judge struck down Arkansas' constitutional ban on same-sex marriage. Couples rushed to Eureka Springs early the next morning to obtain wedding licenses — the only county courthouse in the state open on a Saturday. Several dozen same-sex couples who made history that day, the first in the Deep South to legally wed, are gathering this weekend in Eureka Springs to celebrate.

The new bipartisan "Respect for Marriage Act," recently passed by Congress, requires federal and state governments to recognize legal marriages regardless of a couple's sex, race, ethnicity, or national origin. University of Arkansas Law Professor Danielle Weatherby, said, however, the new law will provide only limited protection if the current Conservative-majority U.S. Supreme Court decides to reverse Obergefell v. Hodges, the 2015 Supreme Court decision that legalized same-sex marriage in all fifty states.
