He does not have that authority. His job is to enforce laws passed by congress.

Attorney general to extend recognition of same-sex marriage rights to all states


 (CNN) -- Attorney General Eric Holder says he is set to extend the federal government's recognition of same-sex marriages even in the 34 states that don't consider it legal. 


CNN has obtained excerpts of a speech Holder will deliver at the Human Rights Campaign's New York City gala event Saturday night.


Holder plans to announce that the Justice Department will issue a memo Monday that recognizes same-sex marriages "to the greatest extent possible under the law."
