Texas Judge Refuses to Marry Same-Sex Couples, Cites Supreme Court Decision
She claims that the decision that allowed a Colorado web designer not to be forced to create a site contrary to her beliefs extends to her view that only heterosexual couples should be married.

Won’t do your job because you are a Christian fascist? That’s a sacking.
It's Texas, so there's unfortunately a decent chance that no one will hold that judge accountable.
No it's all planned. Take it to the supreme court and, well, you know how it'll go from there.
Let's hope so. This is exactly what many feared was coming.
The Colorado decision was explicitly for creative works. Signing off on a certificate wouldn’t count, even under the insane far-right decision of SCOTUS.
I’m afraid because of Dobbs.
Not this shit again... already went through this drama with Kim Davis. She should be removed from the bench and disbarred to boot.
Wasn't she that like, government-employed accountant or something that refused to marry gay couples? These people are so traditional, they have a learning disability.
This judge should be removed/impeached immediately.
This person is a judge, so should be capable of understanding legal rulings. The ruling in question only applied to creative professions. Not judges.
has she been asked to perform lgbtq+ weddings?
