Same-sex immigration policy in the United States : ウィキペディア英語版 | Same-sex immigration policy in the United States Same-sex immigration policy in the United States denied couples in same-sex relationships the same rights and privileges afforded different-sex couples based on several court decisions and the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) until the U.S. Supreme Court ruled Section 3 of DOMA unconstitutional in ''United States v. Windsor'' on June 26, 2013. 〔 'Same-Sex Marriage and Spousal Visas,' http://www.usvisalawyers.co.uk/article23.html, accessed September 27, 2013. 〕 ==Background== In 1982, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled in ''Adams v. Howerton'', 673 F.2d 1036 (9th Cir. 1982), that for the purposes of immigration law the term "spouse" as used in the Immigration and Nationality Act referred to an opposite-sex partner, and that the definition met rational basis review. It was the first U.S. lawsuit to seek recognition of a same-sex marriage by the federal government. The U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal of that decision.〔Adams v. Howerton, 458 U.S. 1111 (1982)〕
