Rostker v. Goldberg, 453 U.S. 57 (1981), is a decision of the Supreme Court of the United States holding that the practice of requiring only men to register for the draft was constitutional. After extensive hearings, floor debate and committee sessions on the matter, the United States Congress reauthorized the law, as it had previously been, to apply to men only. Several attorneys, including Robert L. Goldberg, subsequently challenged the Act as gender distinction. In a 6–3 decision, the Supreme Court upheld the Act, holding that its gender distinction was not a violation of the equal protection component of the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment.

  • Rostker mot Goldberg, (1981), var ett beslut i USA:s högsta domstol som gav utslaget att det inte stred mot USA:s konstitution att bara låta männen registrera sig till Selective Service System. Den 2 juli 1980 rekommenderade USA:s president Jimmy Carter att Selective Service System var tänkt att omfatta även kvinnor. Men efter diskussioner beslutade ändå USA:s kongress att bara omfatta män. Flera män, inklusive , menade att detta var okonstitutionellt. Försvararen av systemet var , chef för Selective Service System. Med röstsiffrorna 6-3 beslutade domstolen att beslutet skulle stå sig. Anledningen till att kvinnor undantogs var att systemet användes för förberedelse av trupper för strid, men att kvinnor ändå var undantagna från strid. (sv)
