We note, however, our view that the Court should have remanded to the district court allowing the plaintiffs to amend their complaint in light of the panel’s clarifying language with respect to the Equal Protection Clause in its amended opinion. --- Source: Frix Law Library, https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/cases/6990810.
