An analysis shows that public opinion in Louisiana should reach the tipping point by 2032, making this one of the last states to legalize same-sex marriage. Action by the US Supreme Court is likely to bring about legalization before then.

∙ 8y agoAlthough the United States Supreme Court ruled on June 26, 2015 that no US state may deny same-sex couples their constitutional right to marry, the state of Louisiana, under Governor Jindal, is currently using legal maneuvering to try and stall the implementation of that decision. In any case, it is clear that same-sex couples will soon be marrying in Louisiana.
