Mat Staver Regarding SCOTUS Sidestepping Kim Davis Case
We are committed to overturning Obergefell
This accommodation came from Democrat Gov. Steven Beshear in September 2015, from Republican Gov. Matt Bevin in December 2015, and from a bill unanimously passed by the state legislature in April 2016. Kim Davis received the simple accommodation she requested, and David Ermold and David Moore received a license. But they wanted Kim’s name on their license. When that did not happen, they continued this case as a vendetta against Kim to punish her for her Christian faith that marriage is between one man and one woman.
“Government officials do not shed their constitutional rights upon election. The majority of Supreme Court Justices know Obergefell is wrong, and this case should have been granted review and reversed that unconstitutional opinion.
“We are committed to overturning Obergefell. Like the abortion issue in Row v. Wade, the Obergefell opinion has no basis in the U.S. Constitution. Marriage should have never been federalized. We have been and will continue working with state legislators and individuals to overturn Obergefell to return the marriage issue back to the states. It is not a matter of IF but WHEN Obergefell will be overturned. Kim Davis’ resolve will raise up many more challenges to this wrongly decided opinion. The day will come. The days of Obergefell are numbered.”
