JOHN ROBERTS’S FULL-THROATED GAY MARRIAGE DISSENT: CONSTUTN ‘HAD NOTHG TO DO WH ’
Meanwhile, Kennedy would vote for the urt to hear the appeal of the owner of Masterpiece Cakhop Colorado, who’d been sanctned for refg to bake a weddg ke for two gay men. The acceptance of an appeal om a baker who had refed to create a ke for a gay uple based on relig objectns uld easily have led to a public perceptn of new Supreme Court hostily toward gay rights.
The backstory of two gay rights s handled tanm 2017 has new salience today.
Kennedy had been the voice of the urt’s progrsive gay rights lgs datg to 1996. Colorado Civil Rights Commissn was brought by a baker, Jack Phillips, who had been sanctned unr Colorado law for refg to create a ke for two gay men celebratg their marriage.

JTICE ROBERTS' LBIAN CO TO ATTEND GAY MARRIAGE ARGUMENTS
There are two big gay-rights s headg for the Court. But there is ltle doubt that if the Court l favor of gay rights the cisn will be signifint, perhaps even historic.
Most people assume that the fifth and cidg vote belongs to Jtice Anthony Kennedy, who wrote the Court’s majory opns s two most recent big gay-rights lgs, Romer v. None of the gay-rights-related s that have e before him as a judge give any signifint clu as to how he might le on the weighty nstutnal issu he will face next term. Intertgly, as the Los Angel Tim reported 2005, before he was on the bench he “worked behd the scen for gay rights activists” the Romer se who were reprented at the time by his law firm, Hogan and now, the marquee gay-rights s facg the Court next term—as Amerin public opn, pecially among young people, shifts rapidly towards greater equaly—Roberts may fd the very kd of “legacy” issu around which he has shown a willgns to break wh his more nservativ lleagu.
” Although he go on to discs this ngy a different ntext, he has been hypothizg for some time that the fluenc on Chief Jtice Roberts the health-re se might also lead him to le favor of the rights of gay Amerins to full equaly, cludg marriage. In the ntext of public opn on gay rights and same-sex marriage, twenty years is a very long they ci agast the rights of gay people next term, wh a or so this issue is gog to be right back before the Court and Jtice Roberts will likely still be Chief.
