A judge at the United States District Court in Brooklyn issued a preliminary injunction that nullifies the resolution and requires the government to honor existing contracts with [ACORN] and review its applications for new grants unless the Obama administration appeals the decision.Something to bear in mind when next you hear of how much reactionaries looove the Constitution.
The court ruled that the resolution amounted to a “bill of attainder,” a legislative determination of guilt without trial, because it specifically punishes one group.
