CNN’s Legal Analyst: Kennedy Wrote ‘in Powerful, Evocative Terms’

‘He writes very broadly that they’re pleased that they respect this definition of marriage, they respect it so deeply that they seek to find its fulfillment for themselves’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

BROWN: "Chief justice Roberts seemed really concerned that the marriage, the definition of marriage has been around for millennia. And justice Kennedy was concerned about that, too. From what you've seen is that addressed in this? 
WYDRA: "Yes, you know, justice Kennedy says, indeed, there is no union more profound than marriage. And he says these couples want to be part of that marriage, want to be part of that time honored tradition. And he says that, given this high ideal of love, fidelity, devotion, that has been the enduring definition of marriage, allowing these couples who want to be part of that, he writes is very powerful, evocative terms, is furthering those values. It doesn't take away from them. He writes very broadly that they're pleased that they respect this definition of marriage, they respect it so deeply that they seek to find its fulfillment for themselves."
