Overview
- Led by Them Before Us, the Greater Than coalition brings together more than 40 conservative and faith-based groups, including Focus on the Family, Family Research Council, American Family Association and the Colson Center, with supporters such as Al Mohler, Robert P. George and Lila Rose.
- The campaign argues that the 2015 ruling legalizing same-sex marriage reshaped parentage law in ways that harm children and says it will prioritize laws that restore mother–father primacy.
- Organizers outline a strategy built on coordinated litigation, public-opinion efforts and church mobilization intended to put new test cases on a path to the Supreme Court.
- Any reversal would require the Court to take a new case, and organizers note that existing marriages and settled parentage would not be voided, with the Respect for Marriage Act still requiring states to recognize out-of-state same-sex marriages.
- The effort faces political headwinds, with a 2025 Gallup poll showing 68% national support for same-sex marriage even as Republican support has declined to 41%, and with the Court having recently denied Kim Davis’s petition to revisit the issue.
