Which state\u2019s House of Representatives voted to pass a resolution expressing their \u201ccommitment to restoring the definition of marriage as a union between one man and one woman, urging the Supreme Court to reconsider the Obergefell v. Hodges<\/em> decision and return authority over marriage laws to the states and their citizens\u201d?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hint: The resolution continues, \u201cObergefell<\/em> relies on the dangerous fiction of treating the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution as a font of substantive rights, a doctrine that strays from the full meaning of the Constitution and exalts judges at the expense of the people from whom they derive their authority.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
