Solomon Amendment Unanimously Upheld

The Supreme Court has unanimously upheld the government's power to withhold funds from law schools that refuse to accept military recruiters.  The reports indicate that Chief Justice Roberts' opinion

said there are other less drastic options to protest the policy [of "don't ask, don't tell" concerning gays].

''A military recruiter's mere presence on campus does not violate a law school's right to associate, regardless of how repugnant the law school considers the recruiter's message,'' he wrote.

Earlier MOJ posts on the case, and its relation to issues like subsidiarity, are linked to here.
