Attorneys David Boies and Theodore B. Olson were asked this question: "Is the Supreme Court's marriage equality ruling the most consequential ruling in our lifetimes?" Boies and Olson say the right to marry is about equal protection of the law, and it's a constitutional right that cannot be taken away. The authors of "Redeeming the Dream" spoke June 30, 2015 at the Aspen Ideas Festival. Neal Katyal of Georgetown is the moderator.
