In June 2015, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled in Obergefell v. Hodges that the Fourteenth Amendment requires all states to license same-sex marriages and recognize same-sex marriages performed in other states. As a result of this decision, all states in the United States, including Oregon, are required to recognize same-sex marriages legally performed in Iowa.
Oregon has had a long history of supporting LGBTQ+ rights. In 2004, Oregon became the first state in the United States to allow same-sex couples to form domestic partnerships. In 2014, Oregon became the 19th state in the United States to legalize same-sex marriage.
Today, Oregon is a welcoming and inclusive state for LGBTQ+ people. There are many LGBTQ+ organizations and resources available in Oregon, and the state has strong laws against discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
