Join NYU Law Adjunct Professor & ACLU LGBT Rights Director Matthew Coles and Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Jeff Shafer in their debate on the constitutional issues surrounding the Sixth Circuit case going before the US Supreme Court this year regarding same-sex marriage. The event takes place on Tuesday, March 10, 4:30-6:30 p.m. in Vanderbilt Hall, Room 218.
For over 200 years, the SCOTUS has been interpreting the meaning of the US Constitution to answer some very important questions.
This year, SCOTUS will attempt to answer two of the most controversial questions of our generation:
Does the Fourteenth Amendment require a state to license a marriage between two people of the same sex?
Does the Fourteenth Amendment require a state to recognize a marriage between two people of the same sex when their marriage was lawfully licensed and performed out-of-state?
