The full faith and credit clause of the Constitution requires that states recognize and enforce court orders, including restraining orders, issued in other states. This means that a restraining order issued in one state must be recognized and enforced by all other states. This is done to ensure that victims of domestic violence and stalking are protected no matter where they go within the United States. The Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act is related to background checks for gun purchases, the supremacy clause of the Constitution deals with federal versus state law, and Loving v. Virginia was a Supreme Court case about the legality of interracial marriage.
