Supreme Court punts on including women in the draft, cites 'deference to Congress'
Fox News
The Supreme Court on Monday punted on a case that could have required women to be included in the Selective Service System – the military draft – citing Congress' ongoing consideration of the issue.
The Selective Service System, opposing a change that would mandate women register for the draft, emphasized that the court previously "deferred to Congress’s judgment" on the Selective Service System. Justices Sonia Sotomayor agreed with that argument in a statement also signed by Justices Stephen Breyer and Brett Kavanaugh.More Related News
