The Supreme Court today ruled that the federal government may no longer discriminate against couples who are legally married in their own state. As the tide continues to shift across the country, these decisions not only reflect the changing mood of the country, they also were based on sound legal reasoning. As attorney general for North Dakota, I took discrimination head-on and today’s decision by the Court is a triumph for equality. Discrimination is discrimination and our government has no business treating the relationships of same-sex couples any different than it treats the relationship I have with my husband. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
