Need help with this law questionThe equal protection clause applies to governmental and private actions? True or false?
And yet you field this question in the RELIGION section?





The equal protection clause refers to the government actions. The commerce clause has been used to govern equal rights issues in employment %26amp; accommodations.The equal protection clause applies to governmental and private actions? True or false?
Governmental actions.


The US Constitution, specifically The Bill of Rights, prohibits government (Congress) from enacted certain laws.


The Equal Protection Clause is part of the 14th Amendment which starts ';Congress shall make no law...';





';no state shall ... deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws';.
FALSE! The Boy Scouts are a good example of a private organization that can discriminate based on religious choice and sexual orientation.
