Protecting the Freedom to Marry
Summary
The Colorado constitution states that a marriage is valid only if it is between one man and one woman. That provision has been unenforceable since the United States supreme court decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, 576 U.S. 644 (2015). The concurrent resolution repeals the provision.(Note: This summary applies to this concurrent resolution as adopted.)
