Milavetz, Gallop & Milavetz, P. A. v. United States — Scalia, J., Concurring

Summary

Justice Scalia concurred in the judgment and joined the Court’s opinion except for its discussion of legislative history in footnote 3. He argued that committee reports and unrelated hearing materials cannot establish what Congress intended when statutory text is unambiguous, and that relying on such materials invites unnecessary and potentially misleading litigation over legislative history. Justice Thomas, concurring separately, agreed with the judgment but questioned the governing approach to compelled commercial-speech disclosures and would reconsider it in an appropriate case.
