Thomas calls for High Court to reconsider gay marriage, contraception decisions

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas said, “In future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell.” Details

In a concurring opinion in the court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, Thomas said, “In future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell.”

In 2003, the court ruled in favor of Lawrence, saying states could not outlaw sex acts by consenting adults. Many Democrats fear the decision to overturn Roe is a precursor to overturning other rulings. However, Justice Samuel Alito, who wrote the opinion to overturn Roe, said the decision does not impact other due process rulings.
