President Joe Biden signed gay marriage legislation into law before a crowd of thousands, a ceremony that reflected the growing acceptance of same-sex unions.
The new law is intended to safeguard gay marriages if the US Supreme Court ever reverses Obergefell v. Hodges, its 2015 decision legalising same-sex unions nationwide.
The new law also protects interracial marriages. In 1967, the Supreme Court in Loving v. Virginia struck down laws in 16 states barring interracial marriage.
