Stands for "Defense of Marriage Act", a 1996 law that discriminates against same-sex couples. Section 3 of DOMA, which defines marriage as "heterosexual couples only" and denies federal benefits to gay couples, was struck down by the Supreme Court in 2013. While many Democrats praised DOMA's end, they forgot to mention that they voted for it.
Person 1: "Bill Clinton sure was happy that DOMA was struck down."
Person 2: "Yeah, but he was the one who signed it..."
