Docket 19-177 · 591 U.S. 430 · Cited 0 times

Holding

Because the foreign affiliates of American nongovernmental organizations possess no First Amendment rights, the United States Leadership Against HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria Act’s limitation on funding organizations with “a policy explicitly opposing prostitution and sex trafficking,” 22 U. S. C. §7631(f), is not unconstitutional as applied to them.
