There’s a very good chance that the Supreme Court will issue their decision regarding Obergefell v. Hodges over the next several days (possibly at any moment), and the Human Rights Campaign is offering a way to get instant text message alerts sent directly to your phone when the historic ruling comes down.

As HRC President Chad Griffin said in an email communication this morning, “Unfortunately, we don’t know exactly when it will happen, since the Supreme Court does not announce in advance which decisions will be read.” However, by texting “MARRIAGE” to 30644, you will be enrolled in HRC’s “mobile action network.” Griffin claims that by joining, “you will be one of the first to know when news breaks at the Supreme Court.”

If you’re worried about getting a ton of spammy texts, the disclaimer from the HRC says that recipients will only get “2-3 messages per month.” Not a bad deal, considering the fact that you’ll be getting updates on what will be a historic ruling, indeed.
