Public Schools and Teachers Are Now On Notice

I hadn't thought of this until someone called to find out, but the Ninth Circuit's rejection of a rehearing on the Pledge case now makes the three-judge panel decision on the unconstitutionality of "under God" binding on all western states (i.e., those within the jurisdiction of the Ninth Circuit). At least I think it is, judging from the language of the stay that had been imposed back in June of last year.
