52. Your OP is based on an incorrect premise |
|
IF Obama's DOJ doesn't appeal, the law is dead.
No one else has standing to appeal except the government.
The only way it could be reversed is if a future Congress and President tried to resurrect it.
But that could occur even if it was repealed legislatively.
Theh law has been declared unconstitutional by a federal court.
The discharges have stopped - the statute is dead.
Why resurrect it through appeal?
