National Aeronautics and Space Administration v. Robert M. Nelson — Scalia, J., Concurring

Summary

Justice Scalia concurred in the judgment to agree with the Court’s conclusion that Government contractor background checks do not offend the Constitution. He rejected the Court’s assumption of a constitutional right to informational privacy, arguing the Due Process Clause protects only procedures, not specified liberties. Justice Thomas separately concurred, agreeing that no provision of the Constitution protects informational privacy.
