Awesome. Soon you’ll be able to take shits into each other’s mouths on live TV.

Force churches to accept same sex marriages or lose your exemption.

Giddy up! (Repeatedly ignored & denied by TD's usual pro-LGQt lobbyists / suspects.)

Let's review the 10th Amendment again:
THE POWERS NOT DELEGATED TO THE UNITED STATES BY THE CONSTITUTION , NOR PROHIBITED BY IT TO THE STATES, ARE RESERVED TO THE STATES RESPECTIVELY, OR TO THE PEOPLE.
A LOT more of these select Feral Overlording edicts must be formally challenged by SCOTUS. Violations of the 10th Amendment are totally out of hand.
Two of three Constitutional checks & balances of the US we are promised ( Legislative & Executive) have completely failed -- thanks to a hijacked by a bogus / rigged "voting" system.
That obviously leaves only the Judicial check of SCOTUS from which to preserve the Republic.

If this act passes it will be huge in respect to rights of those in these partnerships/marriages. It means employers will have to provide spousal benefits if already offered to hetro workers. Maternity and paternity leave for adoptions by gay couples. Insurance premiums will go up for everyone across the board for those working at companies with group policies.
I am someone shocked this is going through with the financial ramifications that will happen.

Hear ya.
That this Bill purposely and disingenuously paired "Interracial Marriage" with Qweer Marriage is the worst kind of Strawman.
Let's ask SCOTUS Justice Thomas how his "Interracial Marriage" was "disrespected" by any State Law.

It has more to do with this regarding the language.
quote:
it would require individual states to recognize another state’s legal marriage.
The federal government is limited in most cases to dictate what a state can and can not do. Where the 10th amendment can be argued but making it an issue involving more than one state allows the federal government to step in. Probably under the guise of something like.

But...What about the 10th Amendment?
In your opinion should it (along with ALL States' Rights) be eliminated?

Why we have SCOTUS to determine who has the power between the states and the federal government.

Which is so broad a technicality and definition loophole that a Mack Truck could drive through it.

Rhetorical Question: Why aren't States' Rights (and of Rights of/for people) considered reverse-"discrimination" by Federal edicts that overturn the 10th Amendment??

Jurisprudentially, however, the legal theories underlying Obergfell are essentially the same as the legal theories underlying Loving. Legally, it makes perfect sense (almost seems mandated) to treat them in much the same way.

To the contrary, it provides that (if Obergefell falls) Alabama could well declined to license SSM. It simply would be prohibited from recognizing the exustence of a SSM which was legally entered in New Hampshire.
That is not a 10th amendment issue, it is an issue under the full faith and credit clause.

Incorrect, and I believe I outlined this earlier in the thread. The backstop for SSM, I get, as over half the states have laws against such that would come back into play should Obergfell get reversed. However, even if Loving were reversed, there'd be no such peril (the last state to have any anti-IR marriage laws was Alabama, and that was struck down over 20 years ago).
Treating IR marriage the same as SSM in this discussion is simply incorrect. Different set of circumstances.

bullshite.
That's the practical effect through FF&C.
States and rules of comity decide FF&C, not federal statute. Once the latter gets involved, it becomes a 10th Amendment issue.

The constitutional theories and analysis underlying each of those two decisions, however, are very similar. The Obergfell court cited Loving a round dozen times in its written opinion.
Factually, the cases are different.
Legally, at least under the reasoning of the two SCOTUS opinions, they are nearly identical.
