Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas wrote a concurring opinion in Friday's ruling overturning Roe v. Wade, arguing the court should"correct the error" of rulings that protect same-sex marriage and contraception access.
Democrats, including President Joe Biden, have warned that Friday's decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization could lead to the high court reversing other precedents established under the Constitution's due process clause. Shortly after the opinion came down, Jim Obergefell, the plaintiff in the 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges case that allowed same-sex couples to become legally married, argued that"families do not need" Thomas"imposing his individual twisted morality upon them."
