The Log Cabin Republicans, which is fighting Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell in the court system, today asked the Supreme Court to block an appeals court’s decision to allow the military to enforce the policy.

Last week, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the military could continue enforcing DADT while the federal government appeals a lower court’s ruling that the policy is unconstitutional. The lower court had issued an injunction ordering the military to immediately stop enforcement.

The Log Cabin Republicans, which brought the original lawsuit, is now asking the Supreme Court to vacate the appeals court’s stay of the lower court’s injunction. In other words, they are trying again to end the enforcement of DADT immediately.
