WASHINGTON, DC –(ENEWSPF)—June 26, 2015. House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) released the following statement following the Supreme Court’s ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges:
“All human beings are created equal by God and thus deserve to be treated with love, dignity and respect. I am, however, disappointed that the Supreme Court disregarded the democratically-enacted will of millions of Americans by forcing states to redefine the institution of marriage. My views are based on my upbringing and my faith. I believe that marriage is a sacred vow between one man and one woman, and I believe Americans should be able to live and work according to their beliefs.”
