Biden signs Respect for Marriage Act
Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttieg gets a hug from President Joe Biden after the signing ceremony for the Respect for Marriage Act at the White House. The law legalizes same-sex and interracial marriages. Congress passed the bipartisan bill after Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas commented that the decision permitting same-sex marriage could be next on the chopping block after abortion. In 2020, Buttigieg was the first openly gay candidate to run for president. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto)
