Romer v. Evans and the Permissibility of Morality Legislation

Abstract

This Article reviews the Scalia dissent in Romer v. Evans in the context of the continuing jurisprudential debate about the proper role of morality in law, and analyzes the legitimacy of various historical and contemporary theories supporting the enactment of morality legislation. Although the law at issue in Romer is used as a primary example of morality legislation, this Article explores the legitimacy of such laws in other contexts as well.
