Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON DC: Rep. Joe Barton (R-Texas) issued the following statement after Fridays Supreme Court ruling on Obergefell v. Hodges.
Two days in a row the Supreme Court has overstepped its authority. Todays decision on same sex marriage is another consequence of liberal judicial activism. On moral grounds the Supreme Court is wrong. I like many Americans believe in traditional marriage as defined by God. The Court has taken away Americans right to decide for themselves what defines marriage.
I will continue to stand for the traditional Christian beliefs that are the bedrock of this country. The Supreme Courts unacceptable announcement today will not alter our faith or moral compass.
