Question

in 1996, what law did congress pass defining marriage as \a legal union of one man and one woman as a husband and wife?\
civil unions act
women’s league organization
defense of marriage act
obergefell v. hodges

Explanation:

The Defense of Marriage Act was passed by the U.S. Congress in 1996, and it defined marriage as a legal union between one man and one woman. The other options are incorrect: Civil Unions Act is not the relevant 1996 federal law, Women's League Organization is not a federal marriage-defining law, and Obergefell v. Hodges is a 2015 Supreme Court case that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide, overriding parts of the Defense of Marriage Act.

Answer:

Defense of Marriage Act
