The Slippery Slope: The Vitality of <i>Reynolds v. US</i> After <i>Romer</i> and <i>Lawrence</i>

The note argues that the legal prohibition of polygamy, upheld by the landmark case Reynolds v. United States, is increasingly vulnerable in light of recent Supreme Court decisions, particularly *Romer v. Evans* and Lawrence v. Texas. These decisions have expanded individual rights and challenged the constitutionality of laws targeting specific groups, suggesting that the legal framework against polygamy may no longer hold. The author posits that just as same-sex marriage is gaining legal recognition, polygamous marriages should also be reconsidered under these evolving legal standards.
