airlift(Beltsville, MD)—I am disappointed with the Supreme Court's decision to change the definition of the institution of marriage for the entire United States. A major aspect of my disappointment is that the court did not let the people decide at the state level. Instead, the Supreme Court imposed its decision about this issue on the entire nation in one fell swoop. I am concerned for the rights of the people to vote on a critical issue like this.
