The US Supreme Court will decide whether to overturn the legalization of same-sex marriage in the case of Kim Davis, who was jailed for refusing to issue marriage licenses.

The US Supreme Court is set to hear the case of Kim Davis, a former Kentucky clerk who was jailed for six days after refusing to issue marriage licenses to a gay couple on religious grounds. Davis is challenging the court's decision, citing the First Amendment, which protects religious freedom. Although all previous courts have rejected his arguments, his lawyer says the case is of exceptional importance. Concerns about the revocation of legal rights for same-sex marriages have heightened amid recent conservative rulings.
