Members of the LGBTQ community in Missouri fear the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn the right to an abortion could endanger gay marriage, or other rights to bodily autonomy.
Brian Garrison proposed to Kyle Gunning in St. Louis’ Forest Park in April. The park is their favorite spot, and Gunning said it’s the dream location for their upcoming wedding.
When Gunning accepted the proposal, he was already nervous about whether their future marriage would be legal. His fears intensified last week when the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the 1973 ruling that legalized abortion in the United States.
“We want to be able to celebrate our love and our relationship the way that we had always thought we would,” Gunning said.

Oh, so NOW y'all get it. No such thing as "settled law". Abortion was NEVER a Constitutional Right. Neither is marriage or "birth right citizenship". None of that is enumerated anywhere within Constitutional language or Codified Law. It is PURELY a States Rights issue. That 2013 Opinion by SCOTUS was unConstitutional. ONLY a Constitutional Amendment can bring that which is not, under the Federal Purview. That is, unless, you don't subscribe to the Fact that the IX and X Amendments are part of the Constitution.
