"The federal statute is invalid, for no legitimate purpose overcomes
the purpose and effect to disparage and injure those whom the State, by
its marriage laws, sought to protect in personhood and dignity. By
seeking to displace this protection and treating those persons as living
in marriages less respected than others." — from
the Supreme Court's decision invalidating the Defense of Marriage Act. As per usual this week,
SCOTUS Blog is your best source, and they're live-blogging.
