California , Colorado and Hawaii will allow residents to vote on ballot measures that would remove language from their state constitutions prohibiting same-sex marriage.
The landmark 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling makes these state bans unenforceable.
Activists are worried that other high court decisions could be in jeopardy.
The Supreme Court is the most conservative in a century .
The Respect for Marriage Act would leave those in conservative states vulnerable.
It's a personal issue for LGBTQ couples who had to navigate a time when same-sex marriage wasn’t legal or straightforward.
Anna and Fran Simon say the fight for equal rights is long from over.
Recent Gallup polling indicates 69% of Americans believe marriage between same sex couples should be legal.
“It would not be at all surprising that in the next several months , we might see a petition for review.. to the Supreme Court ,” Smith said. “I’m not predicting that the court would be all that excited about taking it right now — they have other things to think about but — but it’s certainly not impossible, and so there’s every reason for states that disagree with these same-sex marriage bans to get them off the books while they can.”.
