Thomas wrote in his concurring opinion

For that reason, in future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell.

It's interesting that Thomas didn't mention Loving v. Virginia in that same sentence. He's a black man who lives with his white wife in Virginia, the same state where Mildred and Richard Loving were arrested for being married to each other.
