guaranteed even if it was not written in the constitution. joining me is the. in the marriage equality case. i should note that james is now running for a seat in the ohio house. thank you so much for joining us. you say this draft opinion is a clear call to anyone who opposes same sex marriage. explain that. absolutely. thank you for having me on today. this decision and what alito has to say about marriage equality is a clear call to anyone who opposes marriage equality, who opposes lbgtq plus equality, that they have a friend on the court. more than one friend. and that they should be happy or they should be willing to come after marriage equality. let me be clear, this decision is much bigger than marriage equality, much bigger than lbgtq plus equality. this decision is taking away the right to make decisions about their own body, but it s much,
mexico or louisiana, then you re at a disadvantage. this gets very similar to how the marriage equality case was decided, right? in some states you could do it, and some states you couldn t. the supreme court made the that s my point, ana. i understand what you re saying. what s the point if it s illega some places and not legal some places? i think it s got some if we re honest with each other, the great motivator in people s beliefs on abortion and choice and life, a lot of it has to do from the religious foundation, right? and this is a country where there is a separation of church and state. so, look, i believe in marriage equality, but i don t believe i can impose marriage equality on the church and force the church to marry lgbtq people. in the same way, i don t think i
voters electing state governments that reflect their views. i m pretty sure in texas there s broad support for what they ve done. and anna, i have to get to the break here. when you think about what scott said, if you let s say, you know, hypothetical here. you know, texas the legislature says no. louisiana says yes. it s a hypothetical. what prevents someone from going to the texas/louisiana line and getting it. what good does it do? i ll tell you, money. resources. access to medical care. look, if you are a person that doesn t have the money to travel from texas to louisiana or mexico or new mexico, then you re in a disadvantage. but i think it becomes it gets similar to how the marriage equality case was decided. right. you could do it in some states and others you couldn t. the supreme court made the law. that was my point, anna. that was my point. i understand what you re saying. right.
