Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) today released the following statement regarding the Supreme Court’s Obergefell v. Hodges ruling:  

"My views are rooted in my faith and are shared by the majority of my constituents and fellow Arkansans.  I am disappointed that the Supreme Court took away our constitutional sovereignty to make decisions about the sanctity of marriage for ourselves, and I continue to believe that marriage is a sacred union between one man and one woman.  Now, more than ever, we must work to ensure the closely held religious beliefs of millions of Americans are protected."

Congressman Steve Womack has represented Arkansas’s Third Congressional District since 2011 and serves on the House Appropriations Defense, Financial Services and General Government, and Labor-Health and Human Services subcommittees and the House Committee on the Budget.
