When word of the Supreme Court's decision striking down Roe v. Wade leaked in early May, there were concerns about what it could mean for other rights. Sure enough, in a concurring opinion today, Justice Clarence Thomas urged the court to review other cases protecting contraceptive access, and same-sex marriages.

"More than ever we want to show our thanks and gratitude for those who fight to get us to this point," said Monica Tiojanco, moments after her marriage. "And we know that we have to keep fighting. Especially after this morning."

In the building where the same sex marriage battle was fought, and seemingly won, today was supposed to be a celebration of that legacy. Newlyweds Katelyn & Monica say the news from Washington came as a reminder that their ceremony is not to be taken for granted.
