Arkansas

Why isn't Arkansas no longer purple? The ban was struck down by their Supreme Court a couple of years ago, no? Bigdaddybrabantio (talk) 21:50, 25 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Can someone help fix the FL floater? Really not sure how to do that. Bigdaddybrabantio (talk) 01:35, 17 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

After the Obergefell decision

edit

I believe that this map is incorrect. True, same-sex marriage is now legal in every state, but that does not change the situation in some states (possibly Mississippi, Nebraska, Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, and maybe others) that specifically deny joint adoption and/or second-parent adoption for same-sex couples, married or not. Take a look at HRC's maps regarding adoptions, for example. I suggest a partial reversion to the previous map for the states that have laws or court decisions that prohibit same-sex adoptions, regardless of marital status.
