Since the Supreme Court’s shameful decision overturning Roe v. Wade on June 24, 2023, we heard from many LGBTQ+ people concerned about the security of their marriages and their families.

Together with COLAGE, Family Equality, and the National Center for Lesbian Rights, we put together an FAQ to provide information and answer your most important questions.

The resource, which will be updated as the impact of the Court’s decision develops, answers common questions like:

  • What can I do right now to feel more secure and protect my marriage?
  • How can LGBTQ+ families take steps to protect themselves right now?

Please share it with others in your community who have concerns. While this is an unsettling time, GLAD Law is facing these challenges head-on, and we are here for you.

Cover of the FAQ showing a black and white photo of the Supreme Court with the title, "Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization: What LGBTQ+ Families Need to Know." Below, text says, "Updated: June 2023. When the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, it overturned nearly 50 years of precedent. Since the Court released its decision—which suggested looming threats to our ability to create and protect our families— many are looking for answers about what they can do now. This resource is a work in process that explores some questions we’ve frequently heard and includes tools that you can use moving forward."
