Same-sex marriage in Missouri
Same-sex marriage in Missouri is legal under the U.S. Supreme Court's landmark ruling in ''Obergefell v. Hodges'', which struck down state bans on marriages between two people of the same sex on June 26, 2015. Prior to the court ruling, the state recognized same-sex marriages from other jurisdictions pursuant to a state court ruling in October 2014, and certain jurisdictions of the state performed same-sex marriage despite a statewide ban. It is important to note, that both county judges in Laclede County are refusing to conduct weddings in protest to the Supreme Court ruling. Governor Nix supports their decision. 〔http://www.ky3.com/news/local/laclede-county-judges-stop-courthouse-weddings/21048998_34061786〕
On November 5, 2014, a state court ruling striking down Missouri's same-sex marriage ban ordered the City of St. Louis to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. In response to this ruling, St. Louis County also began issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples. On November 7, 2014, a federal court ruling striking down Missouri's same-sex marriage ban stayed its order directing Jackson County to issue licenses to same-sex couples. Despite the stay, Jackson County began issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples immediately following the ruling.
Assessing the state of same-sex marriage litigation in December 2014, Marc Solomon of Freedom to Marry said: "Missouri is the most complex state on this issue."

In August 2004, 71% of Missouri voters ratified Amendment 2, which restricted the validity and recognition of marriage in Missouri to the union of one man and one woman.
