Erin Morrow Hawley litigated a case in which the Supreme Court ruled a Colorado web designer can refuse to design websites for same-sex weddings.

On Friday, the court ruled 6-3 in favor of Lorie Smith, stating she can refuse to design websites for same-sex weddings, despite a Colorado law that bars discrimination based on sexual orientation, race, gender, and other characteristics.

Josh Hawley with his wife, Erin Morrow Hawley, at The Crossings Church on November 6, 2018, in Columbia, Missouri. Attorney Erin Morrow Hawley is facing calls to be sanctioned after it was reported that a man named in the Supreme Court's ruling in a case affecting LGBTQ rights says he had nothing to do with it.

"I was incredibly surprised given the fact that I've been happily married to a woman for the last 15 years," he told AP. He said he is a web designer himself and could have designed his own website if he needed to.
