Lawmakers in this US state are trying to repeal equal marriage
Briefly

North Dakota's Republican-led House passed a resolution urging the US Supreme Court to overturn the 2015 Obergefell vs Hodges ruling, which legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. The resolution claims the Supreme Court's decision was an overreach and undermines the traditional definition of marriage as a union between one man and one woman. Proponents, like Republican representative Bill Tveit, argue that marriage has always been defined in this way, while opposition, represented by Democrat Austin Foss, expresses concern over the implications on personal rights and freedoms.
"Rep. Bill Tveit argued that traditional marriage is essential, stating that without the union of a male and female, a country cannot sustain itself through procreation."
"Democrat Austin Foss expressed his disbelief at having to defend his marriage rights, emphasizing that he respects the definitions upheld in others' private lives."
