Court to Release Tape of Gay Policy Debate Sat Dec 3, 7:10 AM ET

WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court will hear arguments Tuesday on the Pentagon's "don't ask, don't tell" policy toward gays, then immediately release audio tapes of the proceeding.

The case to be argued Tuesday, deciding the constitutionality of the Solomon Amendment, deals with whether federal funds can be withheld from colleges that close their campuses to military recruiters in a protest of the current military policy toward gays.

The case is Rumsfeld v. Forum for Academic & Institutional Rights, 04-1152.
