Ron DeSantis says status quo would remain for gay marriage under his presidency

During an interview Wednesday on the CBS Evening News, Gov. Ron DeSantis offered assurances that the Supreme Court wouldn’t do what they did to abortion law and scuttle current protections if he were President, based on his expectations of “reliance interest.”

“In terms of the justices I would appoint, you know, they will interpret the text, history and structure of the constitution and they will do that faithfully,” DeSantis told host Norah O’Donnell.

You know, I’ve already said in terms of Obergefell, that what the court pointed out, and the other justices, was reliance interest is important with respect to precedent,” DeSantis added.
