The U.S. Supreme Courts highly anticipated decision in Obergefell
v. Hodges recognized federal constitutional protection for same-sex
marriage.1 Although on its face the case addressed only whether
states must issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples and
recognize marriages legally formed in other states, Obergefell has
implicated a number of other legal rights, particularly those
related to religious exercise and civil rights. Some religious
doctrines include objections to same-sex marriage, leading to
questions about the extent to which individuals, businesses, or
religious institutions that share such objections must recognize or
accommodate couples in same-sex marriages. Because federal law
includes both constitutional and statutory protections for
religious beliefs that may involve such conflicts, the manner in
which these protections may intersect with constitutional
protection of same-sex marriage can become complicated. This book
analyzes a range of legal issues for which Obergefell has
implications. Moreover, this book addresses eligibility for Social
Security spousal benefits for individuals in a same-sex marriage;
addresses a number of frequently asked questions regarding the
eligibility of same-sex couples for Social Security benefits and
the interpretation of state marriage laws; provides an overview of
the federal tax treatment of same-sex married couples, with a focus
on the federal income tax; and provides background on, and analysis
of, significant legal issues raised by the Supreme Courts decision
in Obergefell.
