Are there Federal Sodomy laws?



Answers:
In a sense, yes.

The US Supreme Court ruled in "Lawrence v. Texas" that private consensual sexual activity between adults could not be made criminal. That includes sodomy, striking down the Texas (and other) laws against it.

Because it's a court ruling, it's federal case law.
