DOJ spokesperson on federal treatment of same-sex couples' Utah marriages: "The Department is reviewing the governor’s decision."
@chrisgeidner ...whatever AMK calls it, state power and authority played into the decision. He says it was "of central relevance."

@AppellateDaily Yes, bc the state expanded the protections, the fed had no legit reasons to limit. The opposite scenario is not discussed. -
@chrisgeidner Right, the opposite scenario is an open question, and I don't see DOJ stepping in to answer it w/o further guidance. -
@AppellateDaily And I don't think this is that opposite scenario. The state doesn't say these are invalid marriages. -
@chrisgeidner That's a whole different string! Anyway, it will be interesting to see what happens. - End of conversation
