Vacco v. Quill
Supreme Court of the United States (1996)

The constitution can be a powerful engine of social change -- for better, and for worse. As Agudath Israel sees it, the rulings of the Ninth and Second Circuits are examples of constitutionalism at its most dangerous.

For the reasons set forth in petitioners' briefs, and the additional reasons set forth herein, Agudath Israel of America respectfully urges the Court to reverse the rulings below and clarify the limits of constitutional moral revolution.

Respectfully submitted,

March 11, 1997
