Late last December, Waco, Texas, Justice of the Peace Dianne Hensley filed a federal lawsuit, claiming she had the right to refuse to marry same-sex couples because of her religious beliefs. As part of the lawsuit, she also argued that the U.S. Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell decision establishing nationwide marriage equality should be overruled. The filing garnered some headlines, reporting a new threat to Obergefell.
