The resolution commemorates the 10th anniversary of the landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, which granted same-sex couples the right to marry nationwide on June 26, 2015. This ruling marked a significant milestone in the ongoing struggle for LGBTQ rights, concluding over a decade of legal battles and paving the way for marriage equality across all 50 states. The resolution highlights the historical context leading up to the decision, including the gradual legalization of same-sex marriage in various states and the pivotal role of federal lawsuits that challenged existing marriage bans.

In recognition of this important anniversary, the resolution designates June 26, 2025, as Marriage Equality Day in Texas, honoring the efforts of individuals and organizations that fought for equal marriage rights. It serves as a tribute to the progress made in achieving justice and equality under the law for LGBTQ Americans, emphasizing the significance of the Supreme Court's ruling in shaping the landscape of civil rights in the United States.
