The resolution, introduced by Senators Deevers and Olsen, asserts that marriage should be defined as a union between one man and one woman, urging the Supreme Court of the United States to overturn its 2015 decision in Obergefell v. Hodges. The resolution argues that the Obergefell ruling contradicts the original intent of the U.S. Constitution and the historical understanding of marriage, as affirmed by Oklahoma voters in 2004 through State Question 711. It emphasizes that marriage regulation is a state matter and contends that the Supreme Court's decision undermines the civil liberties of states and their residents.

Furthermore, the resolution critiques the Obergefell decision for allegedly misinterpreting constitutional rights and for its implications on religious liberty and societal norms. It highlights concerns about the impact of the ruling on individuals who adhere to traditional definitions of marriage, citing specific cases of legal challenges faced by those who oppose same-sex marriage on religious grounds. The Oklahoma Legislature calls for a reaffirmation of state authority over marriage policy and requests that copies of the resolution be sent to various federal and state officials, including the Supreme Court.
