Good question. Using Justice Alito's ruling, Loving v Virginia is unConstitutional too.Associate Justice Thomas has made it clear that would vote to overturn Obergefell v. Hodges, the ruling that invalidated state bans on same sex marriage
In 1967, another landmark case involving marriage was decided, That was Loving V. Virginia which invalidated bans on interracial marriage
Both cases were decided on the same constitutional principles of equal protection under the law and the right to due process.
Thomas' wife is white. So the question that comes to mind is: I the Loving ruling were to be challenged today, how would Thomas vote
