As mentioned in my earlier comment, the same political side and I bet the same judge, would support discriminatory requirements for the hiring practices of federal contractors. The question is whether the government can include things in its contracts to attain whatever political goals are desired, even if people have personal freedom of association. Whatever the answer, it has to be enforced equally in all circumstances. To me this judge is making a politically motivated ruling.

Instead of answering my very simple and straightforward question you instead do a "whatabout". Why is that? Do you not consider control over hiring to be covered by freedom of association?
