On June 26, 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court announced that same-sex marriage is legal nationwide, affirming the constitutional right of gay people to marry. Originally, two-thirds of U.S. states had already recognized same-sex marriage, and this announcement meant that same-sex couples across the entire country now have the right to marry. The White House was also lit up in rainbow colors at night, symbolizing another step forward for LGBTQ+ equality and human rights in the United States.
