History

Historical Context

In 2013 the Supreme Court struck down DOMA’s Section 3 in United States v. Windsor, extending federal benefits to married same-sex couples. The following year, Obergefell v. Hodges (June 26 2015) required all states to license and recognize same-sex marriage, securing 1,138 federal rights. On June 21 2026 LGBTQ Nation’s Father’s Day tribute, backed by GWK Academy, highlighted trans and nonbinary fathers as legal gains face renewed legislative attacks.
