WEINBERGER V. WIESENFELD (1975)

In Weinberger v. Wiesenfeld, the ACLU argued that the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Reed v. Reed (1971), recognizing constitutional protection against sex-based discrimination, prohibited differential treatment among widows and widowers in the administration of the Social Security system. In an 8–0 decision, the Court agreed, thereby vindicating the Wiesenfeld family’s right to equality of treatment under the law in the event of spousal death and continuing the development of a robust sex equality jurisprudence.
