But did it have to be rushed? Is the Supreme Court actually going to overturn Obergefell? If that happens, it will take at least several years for a case to work it way up the pipeline. It won’t happen quickly or by surprise.

It’s no surprise that legislators passed a law. I mean, when you’re a hammer, everything looks like a nail. But I worry this law does more harm than good, since it signals that Congress intends for same-sex marriage, and probably all LGBTQ equality laws, are second class by nature.
