Same-sex marriage in Georgia (U.S. state)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Same-sex marriage has been legal in Georgia since the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges on June 26, 2015. Attorney General Sam Olens announced that Georgia would "adhere to the ruling of the Court",[1] and the first couple married just one hour after the ruling was handed down.[2] Previously, Georgia had banned same-sex marriage both by statute and its State Constitution.[3]
