Web designer Lorie Smith claimed anti-discrimination laws violated her First Amendment rights; a conservative U.S. Supreme Court majority agreed.
Lorie Smith said she couldn’t design wedding websites out of fear of retaliation for her beliefs, but it turns out she designed at least one before making a legal challenge.
She claims that the decision that allowed a Colorado web designer not to be forced to create a site contrary to her beliefs extends to her view that only heterosexual couples should be married.

The Transportation Secretary discussed the case on CNN's "State of the Union."
