2005 Texas Proposition 2 was a proposed amendment to the Constitution of Texas to define marriage as between one man and one woman, thereby prohibiting same-sex marriage. The amendment also prohibited the state from creating or recognizing "any legal status identical or similar to marriage." Following the United States Supreme Court's June 2015 decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, which found all bans on same-sex marriage to be in violation of two clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment, the ban became unenforceable, thereby legalizing same-sex marriage.
