Description

Today we are talking about 2 cases: Griswold v. Connecticut and Romer v. EvansGriswold established the right to marital privacy that proved foundational to several other cases and Romer ruled that a Colorado constitutional amendment passed by the voters of Colorado (53% to 47%) was unconstiutional because it was based on animus. Both cases laid the groundwork for other cases we have already talked about.

On the 20th, we will be talking about 3 cases related to same-sex marriage: United States v. WindsorHollingsworth v. Perry, and Obergefell v. HodgesHollingsworth was documented in the HBO documentary "The Case Against 8" and I would encourage you to watch it if you have the time.
