Idaho Republican lawmakers took a strong stand against homosexual “marriage,” voting to reject the Supreme Court’s Obergefell v. Hodges ruling as “an illegitimate overreach” and urge the court to overturn it.
The Idaho House of Representatives passed a resolution on Tuesday condemning the 2015 decision for “arbitrarily and unjustly” subverting the true definition of marriage, which “has been recognized as the union of one man and one woman for more than 2,000 years.”
The resolution – House Joint Memorial 17 – declares that “the Idaho Legislature rejects the Obergefell decision” and “calls upon the Supreme Court of the United States to reverse Obergefell and restore the natural definition of marriage.”
