Decided October 11, 1994 Since 1987, pro se petitioner Whitaker has filed 23 claims for relief, all of which have been denied without recorded dissent. He has also been denied leave to proceed in forma pauperis, pursuant to this Court's Rule 39.8, for the last two petitions in which he has sought extraordi- nary relief. Held: Whitaker is denied leave to proceed in forma pauperis in the in- stant case, and the Clerk is instructed not to accept any further petitions for extraordinary writs from him in noncriminal matters unless he pays the required docketing fee and submits his petitions in compliance with Rule 33. In order to prevent frivolous petitions for extraordinary relief from unsettling the fair administration of justice, this Court has a duty to deny in forma pauperis status to those individuals who have abused the system. In re Sindram, 498 U. S. 177, 179­180. Motion denied. Per Curiam. Pro se petitioner Fred Whitaker filed a petition for writ of mandamus and requests permission to proceed in forma pauperis under this Court's Rule 39. Pursuant to Rule 39.8, 1 513us1$$1z 11-25-96 19:00:10 PAGES OPINPGT 2 IN RE WHITAKER Per Curiam we deny petitioner leave to proceed in forma pauperis.* Petitioner is allowed until November 1, 1994, within which to pay the docketing fee required by Rule 38(a) and to submit a petition for a writ of prohibition in compliance with Rule 33 of the Rules of this Court. For the reasons explained below, we also direct the Clerk of the Court not to accept any further petitions for extraordinary writs from petitioner in noncriminal matters unless he pays the docketing fee re- quired by Rule 38(a) and submits his petition in compliance with Rule 33. Since 1987, petitioner has filed 23 claims for relief, includ- ing 18 petitions for certiorari, 9 of which have been filed in the last three Terms. That total also includes five petitions for extraordinary writs filed since June 1992. We have de- nied all of the petitions without recorded dissent. We have also denied petitioner leave to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to Rule 39.8 for the last two petitions in which he has sought extraordinary relief. In re Whitaker, 511 U. S. 1105 (1994); In re Whitaker, 506 U. S. 983 (1992). Petitioner's current claim involves a civil action brought in the Alameda, California, Superior Court against Lake Merritt Lodge & Residence, alleging damages of $2 in illegal taxes. His legal arguments here are just as frivolous as those he has made in previous petitions. Although petitioner has exhibited frequent filing patterns with respect to petitions for writ of certiorari, we limit our sanctions at this time to the type of relief requested today- styled as petitions for extraordinary writs. We have im- posed similar sanctions in the past. See, e. g., In re Ander- son, 511 U. S. 364 (1994); In re Demos, 500 U. S. 16 (1991); In *Rule 39.8 provides: "If satisfied that a petition for a writ of certiorari, jurisdictional statement, or petition for an extraordinary writ, as the case may be, is frivolous or malicious, the Court may deny a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis." 513us1$$1z 11-25-96 19:00:10 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 1 (1994) 3 Stevens, J., dissenting re Sindram, 498 U. S. 177 (1991); In re McDonald, 489 U. S. 180 (1989). As we concluded in Sindram: "The goal of fairly dispensing justice . . . is compromised when the Court is forced to devote its limited resources to the processing of repetitious and frivolous requests. Pro se petitioners have a greater capacity than most to disrupt the fair allocation of judicial resources because they are not subject to the financial considerations-fil- ing fees and attorney's fees-that deter other litigants from filing frivolous petitions. The risks of abuse are particularly acute with respect to applications for ex- traordinary relief, since such petitions are not subject to any time limitations and, theoretically, could be filed at any time without limitation. In order to prevent frivo- lous petitions for extraordinary relief from unsettling the fair administration of justice, the Court has a duty to deny in forma pauperis status to those individuals who have abused the system." 498 U. S., at 179­180 (citation omitted). Justice Stevens, dissenting. Having already explained why the 1991 amendment to this Court's Rule 39 was both unnecessary and ill considered,1 and having dissented from each of the dispositions cited by the Court today,2 I would only add that I remain convinced that the views expressed in those dissents are correct.

UNITED STATES on motion of thomas n. cochran for leave to withdraw as counsel for petitioner No. ­­­. Decided October 31, 1994 Having determined that no meritorious grounds existed for an appeal of Anthony Austin's criminal conviction, Thomas Cochran, his appointed counsel, filed a brief in the Fourth Circuit raising only the issue of sen- tence computation. After the Fourth Circuit affirmed Austin's convic- tion and sentence, Cochran informed him of his right to petition for certiorari, but applied to this Court for leave to withdraw as counsel before the deadline for filing the petition. Held: Cochran's application is granted. Under a plan adopted pursuant to the Criminal Justice Act (Act), the Fourth Circuit has a Rule govern- ing the duration of service by appointed counsel. Cochran is correct that the Fourth Circuit Rule imposes a mandatory duty to file a petition even if the legal arguments are frivolous and, thus, conflicts with this Court's Rule 42.2, which allows an award of damages or costs against him for filing such a petition. Nothing in the Act compels counsel to file papers in contravention of this Court's Rules against frivolous fil- ings. If necessary, the Circuits' Criminal Justice Plans should be re- vised to allow a lawyer to be relieved of the duty to file a petition for certiorari that would present only frivolous claims. The Act does not compel a particular approach. However, from an administrative point of view, it is preferable for a plan to require that the court of appeals approve a withdrawal, because attorneys are more likely to avail them- selves of this avenue for relief if they have the court's endorsement to back up their own judgment. Application granted. Per Curiam. Anthony Austin pleaded guilty to possession of crack co- caine with intent to distribute and was sentenced to 151 months' imprisonment. On appeal to the Fourth Circuit, Thomas Cochran, who had been appointed as Austin's coun- sel pursuant to the Criminal Justice Act of 1964, 18 U. S. C. § 3006A, submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v. Cali- fornia, 386 U. S. 738 (1967). That brief raised the issue of 513US1$$2z 11-22-96 14:32:27 PAGES OPINPGT 6 AUSTIN v. UNITED STATES Per Curiam sentence computation, but concluded that no meritorious is- sues existed for appeal. The Fourth Circuit affirmed Aus- tin's conviction and sentence. Cochran then informed Aus- tin of the right to petition for certiorari. Austin responded with a request to file a petition on his behalf. In advance of the deadline for filing the petition, Cochran applied to this Court for leave to withdraw as counsel. We grant his application. The Criminal Justice Act directs each district court, with the approval of the judicial council of the Circuit, to imple- ment "a plan for furnishing representation for any person financially unable to obtain adequate representation." 18 U. S. C. § 3006A(a). The Fourth Circuit plan contains a provision governing the duration of service by appointed counsel. Specifically, it provides: "2. Appellate Counsel. Every attorney, including re- tained counsel, who represents a defendant in this court shall continue to represent his client after termination of the appeal unless relieved of further responsibility by the Supreme Court. Where counsel has not been relieved: "If the judgment of this court is adverse to the defend- ant, counsel shall inform the defendant, in writing, of his right to petition the Supreme Court for a writ of certio- rari. If the defendant, in writing, so requests, counsel shall prepare and file a timely petition for such a writ and transmit a copy to the defendant. Thereafter, un- less otherwise instructed by the Supreme Court or its clerk, or unless any applicable rule, order or plan of the Supreme Court shall otherwise provide, counsel shall take whatever further steps are necessary to protect the rights of the defendant, until the petition is granted or denied." 4th Circuit Rules App. II, Rule V.2. Cochran argues that the Rule subjects him to conflicting ob- ligations. On the one hand, the Rule imposes a mandatory duty to file a petition even if the legal arguments are frivo- 513US1$$2z 11-22-96 14:32:27 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 5 (1994) 7 Per Curiam lous. On the other hand, this Court's Rule 42.2 allows an award of damages or costs against him if he were to file a frivolous petition. As a matter of pure text, Cochran's interpretation is cor- rect. The Fourth Circuit Rule does require the actions of appointed counsel to comply with this Court's Rules, but only after the filing of a petition for certiorari. The Rule im- poses a very clear mandate to file petitions at the client's request, evidenced by the command "shall prepare and file." The Fourth Circuit keeps plenty of company in mandating representation through the certiorari process, even when it may run counter to our Rules.1 Although the Fourth Cir- cuit Rule provides a mechanism to seek relief from this obli- gation, Cochran is the first attorney to move for such relief,2 indicating that counsel feel encouraged or perhaps bound by these Rules to file petitions that rest on frivolous claims. These Circuit Rules may explain, in part, the dramatically increased number of petitions for certiorari on direct appeal from federal courts of appeals filed by persons in forma pauperis.3 1 See D. C. Circuit Rules App. VIII, Rule IV ("The duties of representa- tion by counsel on appeal, where the appeal has been unsuccessful, shall extend to advising the party of the right to file a petition for writ of certiorari . . . . If the party so requests, counsel shall prepare and file such a petition") (emphasis added); 3d Circuit Rules Addendum B, Rule III.6 (same); 5th Circuit Rules App. C, Rule 4 (same); 7th Circuit Rules App. II, Rule V.3 (same); 8th Circuit Rules App. Rule V (same); 9th Circuit Rules App. A, § 4(c) (same); 10th Circuit Rules Addendum I, Rule II.D (same); 11th Circuit Rules Addendum 4(f)(4) (same). 2 Since this Court received Cochran's motion, another attorney has filed a petition for certiorari raising the same issue. Anderson v. United States, No. 94­5958. 3 For the October 1983 Term, we received 523 petitions for certiorari on direct review in criminal cases from in forma pauperis petitioners in fed- eral courts. That number increased fourfold by the October 1993 Term with 2,053 petitions. That increase stands in contrast with the increase in criminal petitions on direct review from state courts-an increase of only 50% in that same 10-year period. 513US1$$2z 11-22-96 14:32:27 PAGES OPINPGT 8 AUSTIN v. UNITED STATES Per Curiam Consistent with the Criminal Justice Act, we have pro- vided by Rule for the payment of counsel appointed by this Court to represent certain indigent defendants. See Rule 39.7 ("In a case in which certiorari has been granted or juris- diction has been noted or postponed, this Court may appoint counsel to represent a party financially unable to afford an attorney to the extent authorized by the Criminal Justice Act of 1964, as amended, 18 U. S. C. § 3006A"). But nothing in the Criminal Justice Act compels counsel to file papers in contravention of this Court's Rules against frivolous filings. And though indigent defendants pursuing appeals as of right have a constitutional right to a brief filed on their behalf by an attorney, Anders v. California, supra, that right does not extend to forums for discretionary review. Ross v. Moffitt, 417 U. S. 600, 616­617 (1974). Our Rules dealing with the grounds for granting certiorari, and penalizing frivolous fil- ings, apply equally to petitioners using appointed or retained counsel. We believe that the Circuit councils should, if nec- essary, revise their Criminal Justice Plans so that they do not create any conflict with our Rules. The plan should allow for relieving a lawyer of the duty to file a petition for certiorari if the petition would present only frivolous claims. A few of the Circuits have adopted plans that accommo- date this Court's Rules in some fashion. For instance, the First Circuit only requires appointed counsel to continue representation at the Supreme Court level if "the person requests it and there are reasonable grounds for counsel properly to do so." 1st Circuit Rule 46.5(c). If counsel de- termines a petition would be frivolous, he must inform the First Circuit and request leave to withdraw. See also 2d Circuit Rules App. A, Rule III.5. The Sixth Circuit takes a different tack, insulating counsel from violation of its Rules (though not, of course, from violation of our Rules) so long as he proceeds according to his best professional judgment, without resorting to the approval of the appellate court. Its recently amended Rule states: "Court appointed counsel is 513US1$$2z 11-22-96 14:32:27 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 5 (1994) 9 Per Curiam obligated to file a petition for a writ of certiorari in the Su- preme Court of the United States if the client requests that such a review be sought and, in counsel's considered judg- ment, there are grounds for seeking Supreme Court review." 6th Circuit Rule 12(f) (emphasis in original). We do not be- lieve that the Criminal Justice Act compels either approach. From an administrative point of view, however, we think a plan requiring approval of the court of appeals is preferable, because attorneys are more likely to avail themselves of this avenue for relief if they have the endorsement of the court to back up their own judgment. 513us1$$3z 03-28-98 14:35:40 PAGES OPINPGT 10 OCTOBER TERM, 1994 Syllabus UNITED STATES v. SHABANI certiorari to the united states court of appeals for the ninth circuit No. 93­981. Argued October 3, 1994-Decided November 1, 1994 Respondent Shabani was convicted of conspiracy to distribute cocaine in violation of 21 U. S. C. § 846 after the District Court refused to instruct the jury that proof of an overt act in furtherance of a narcotics conspir- acy is required for conviction under § 846. The Court of Appeals re- versed, holding that, under its precedent, the Government must prove at trial that a defendant has committed such an overt act. Held: In order to establish a violation of § 846, the Government need not prove the commission of any overt acts in furtherance of the conspiracy. The statute's plain language does not require an overt act, and such a requirement has not been inferred from congressional silence in other conspiracy statutes, see, e. g., Nash v. United States, 229 U. S. 373. Thus, absent contrary indications, it is presumed that Congress intended to adopt the common law definition of conspiracy, which "does not make the doing of any act other than the act of conspiring a condition of liabil- ity," id., at 378. Moreover, since the general conspiracy statute and the conspiracy provision of the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970 both require an overt act, it appears that Congress' choice in § 846 was quite deliberate. United States v. Felix, 503 U. S. 378, distinguished. While Shabani correctly asserts that the law does not punish criminal thoughts, in a criminal conspiracy the criminal agreement itself is the actus reus. The rule of lenity cannot be invoked here, since the statute is not ambiguous. Pp. 13­17. 993 F. 2d 1419, reversed. O'Connor, J., delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court. Richard H. Seamon argued the cause for the United States. With him on the briefs were Solicitor General Days, Assistant Attorney General Harris, and Joseph Doug- las Wilson. Dennis P. Riordan argued the cause for respondent. With him on the brief were Alan M. Caplan and Marc J. Zilversmit. 513us1$$3J 03-28-98 14:35:40 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 10 (1994) 11 Opinion of the Court Justice O'Connor delivered the opinion of the Court. This case asks us to consider whether 21 U. S. C. § 846, the drug conspiracy statute, requires the Government to prove that a conspirator committed an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy. We conclude that it does not. I According to the grand jury indictment, Reshat Shabani participated in a narcotics distribution scheme in Anchorage, Alaska, with his girlfriend, her family, and other associates. Shabani was allegedly the supplier of drugs, which he ar- ranged to be smuggled from California. In an undercover operation, federal agents purchased cocaine from distribu- tors involved in the conspiracy. Shabani was charged with conspiracy to distribute cocaine in violation of 21 U. S. C. § 846. He moved to dismiss the indictment because it did not allege the commission of an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy, which act, he ar- gued, was an essential element of the offense. The United States District Court for the District of Alaska, Hon. H. Rus- sel Holland, denied the motion, and the case proceeded to trial. At the close of evidence, Shabani again raised the issue and asked the court to instruct the jury that proof of an overt act was required for conviction. The District Court noted that Circuit precedent did not require the alle- gation of an overt act in the indictment but did require proof of such an act at trial in order to state a violation of § 846. Recognizing that such a result was "totally illogical," App. 29, and contrary to the language of the statute, Judge Hol- land rejected Shabani's proposed jury instruction, id., at 36. The jury returned a guilty verdict, and the court sentenced Shabani to 160 months' imprisonment. The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reversed. 993 F. 2d 1419 (1993). The court acknowledged an inconsistency between its cases holding that an indict- ment under § 846 need not allege an overt act and those re- 513us1$$3J 03-28-98 14:35:40 PAGES OPINPGT 12 UNITED STATES v. SHABANI Opinion of the Court quiring proof of such an act at trial, and it noted that the latter cases "stand on weak ground." Id., at 1420. Never- theless, the court felt bound by precedent and attempted to reconcile the two lines of cases. The Court of Appeals rea- soned that, although the Government must prove at trial that the defendant has committed an overt act in furtherance of a narcotics conspiracy, the act need not be alleged in the indictment because " `[c]ourts do not require as detailed a statement of an offense's elements under a conspiracy count as under a substantive count.' " Id., at 1422, quoting United States v. Tavelman, 650 F. 2d 1133, 1137 (CA9 1981). Chief Judge Wallace wrote separately to point out that in no other circumstance could the Government refrain from alleging in the indictment an element it had to prove at trial. He followed the Circuit precedent but invited the Court of Appeals to consider the question en banc because the Ninth Circuit, "contrary to every other circuit, clings to a problem- atic gloss on 21 U. S. C. § 846, insisting, despite a complete lack of textual support in the statute, that in order to convict under this section the government must prove the commis- sion of an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy." 993 F. 2d, at 1422 (concurring opinion). For reasons unknown, the Court of Appeals did not grant en banc review. We granted certiorari, 510 U. S. 1108 (1994), to resolve the con- flict between the Ninth Circuit and the 11 other Circuits that have addressed the question, all of which have held that § 846 does not require proof of an overt act.* *See United States v.

It provided: "Any person who attempts or conspires to commit any offense defined in this title is punishable by imprisonment or fine or both which may not exceed the maximum punishment prescribed for the offense, the commission of which was the object of the attempt or conspiracy." Id., at 1265. As amended by the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988, Pub. L. 100­ 690, § 6470(a), 102 Stat. 4377, the statute currently provides: "Any person who attempts or conspires to commit any of- fense defined in this subchapter shall be subject to the same penalties as those prescribed for the offense, the commission of which was the object of the attempt or conspiracy." 21 U. S. C. § 846. The language of neither version requires that an overt act be committed to further the conspiracy, and we have not inferred such a requirement from congressional silence in other conspiracy statutes. In Nash v. United States, 229 U. S. 373 (1913), Justice Holmes wrote, "[W]e can see no reason for reading into the Sherman Act more than we find there," id., at 378, and the Court held that an overt act is not required for antitrust conspiracy liability. The same reasoning prompted our conclusion in Singer v. United States, 323 U. S. 338 (1945), that the Selective Service Act "does not require an overt act for the offense of conspiracy." Id., at 340. Nash and Singer follow the settled principle of statutory construction that, absent contrary indications, Congress in- tends to adopt the common law definition of statutory terms. See Molzof v. United States, 502 U. S. 301, 307­308 (1992). We have consistently held that the common law understand- cert. denied, 469 U. S. 983 (1984); United States v.

Grunewald, however, was a statute of limi- tations case, and whatever exasperation with conspiracy prosecutions the opinion may have expressed in dictum says little about the views of Congress when it enacted § 846. As to those views, we find it instructive that the general conspiracy statute, 18 U. S. C. § 371, contains an explicit re- quirement that a conspirator "do any act to effect the object of the conspiracy." In light of this additional element in the general conspiracy statute, Congress' silence in § 846 speaks volumes. After all, the general conspiracy statute preceded and presumably provided the framework for the more spe- cific drug conspiracy statute. "Nash and Singer give Con- gress a formulary: by choosing a text modeled on § 371, it gets an overt-act requirement; by choosing a text modeled on the Sherman Act, 15 U. S. C. § 1, it dispenses with such a requirement." United States v. Sassi, 966 F. 2d 283, 284 (CA7 1992). Congress appears to have made the choice quite deliberately with respect to § 846; the same Congress that passed this provision also enacted the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970, Pub. L. 91­452, 84 Stat. 922, § 802(a) of which contains an explicit requirement that "one or more of [the conspirators] does any act to effect the object of such a conspiracy," id., at 936, codified at 18 U. S. C. § 1511(a). 513us1$$3J 03-28-98 14:35:40 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 10 (1994) 15 Opinion of the Court Early opinions in the Ninth Circuit dealing with the drug conspiracy statute simply relied on our precedents interpret- ing the general conspiracy statute and ignored the textual variations between the two provisions. See United States v. Monroe, 552 F. 2d 860, 862 (CA9), cert. denied, 431 U. S. 972 (1977), citing United States v. Feola, 420 U. S. 671 (1975); United States v. Thompson, 493 F. 2d 305, 310 (CA9), cert. denied, 419 U. S. 834 (1974), citing United States v. Rabino- wich, 238 U. S. 78, 86­88 (1915). Two other Courts of Ap- peals were led down the same path, see United States v. King, 521 F. 2d 61, 63 (CA10 1975); United States v. Hutchin- son, 488 F. 2d 484, 490 (CA8 1973), but both subsequently recognized the misstep and rejected their early interpreta- tions, see United States v. Covos, 872 F. 2d 805, 810 (CA8 1989); United States v. Savaiano, 843 F. 2d 1280, 1294 (CA10 1988). What the Ninth Circuit failed to recognize we now make explicit: In order to establish a violation of 21 U. S. C. § 846, the Government need not prove the commission of any overt acts in furtherance of the conspiracy. United States v. Felix, 503 U. S. 378 (1992), is not to the contrary. In that case, an indictment under § 846 alleged two overt acts which had formed the basis of the defendant's prior conviction for attempting to manufacture drugs. The defendant argued that the Government had violated the Double Jeopardy Clause and Grady v. Corbin, 495 U. S. 508 (1990), overruled, United States v. Dixon, 509 U. S. 688 (1993), by using evi- dence underlying the prior conviction "to prove an essential element of an offense" charged in the second prosecution. We held that the Double Jeopardy Clause did not bar the conspiracy charge. Justice Stevens, writing separately, thought that our double jeopardy discussion was unnecessary partly because "there is no overt act requirement in the fed- eral drug conspiracy statute," Felix, supra, at 392 (Stevens, J., concurring in part and concurring in judgment). Shabani argues that, by not responding to this point, the Court im- 513us1$$3J 03-28-98 14:35:40 PAGES OPINPGT 16 UNITED STATES v. SHABANI Opinion of the Court plicitly held that § 846 requires proof of overt acts; otherwise, the double jeopardy discussion would have been merely advi- sory. The procedural history of Felix, however, belies this contention. The disputed evidence was offered not to prove overt acts qua overt acts, but to prove the existence of a conspiracy. The lower court in Felix noted that it was "mindful that 21 U. S. C. § 846 does not require proof of an overt act . . . ." United States v. Felix, 926 F. 2d 1522, 1529, n. 7 (CA10 1991). Nevertheless, evidence of such acts raised double jeopardy concerns because it "tended to show the criminal agreement for the conspiracy," an indisputably essential element of the offense. Ibid. Indeed, Justice Stevens also argued that "the overt acts did not establish an agreement between Felix and his co-conspirators." Felix, 503 U. S., at 392. In light of the lower court opinion, it is apparent that we rejected this point-rather than Jus- tice Stevens' construction of § 846-before reaching the double jeopardy issue. In any event, Shabani's strained reading of Felix is of little consequence for precedential pur- poses, since "[q]uestions which `merely lurk in the record' are not resolved, and no resolution of them may be inferred." Illinois Bd. of Elections v. Socialist Workers Party, 440 U. S. 173, 183 (1979), quoting Webster v. Fall, 266 U. S. 507, 511 (1925). Shabani reminds us that the law does not punish criminal thoughts and contends that conspiracy without an overt act requirement violates this principle because the offense is predominantly mental in composition. The prohibition against criminal conspiracy, however, does not punish mere thought; the criminal agreement itself is the actus reus and has been so viewed since Regina v. Bass, 11 Mod. 55, 88 Eng. Rep. 881, 882 (K. B. 1705) ("[T]he very assembling together was an overt act"); see also Iannelli v. United States, 420 U. S. 770, 777 (1975) ("Conspiracy is an inchoate offense, the essence of which is an agreement to commit an unlawful act") (citations omitted). 513us1$$3J 03-28-98 14:35:40 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 10 (1994) 17 Opinion of the Court Finally, Shabani invokes the rule of lenity, arguing that the statute is unclear because it neither requires an overt act nor specifies that one is not necessary. The rule of lenity, however, applies only when, after consulting traditional can- ons of statutory construction, we are left with an ambiguous statute. See, e. g., Beecham v. United States, 511 U. S. 368, 374 (1994); Smith v. United States, 508 U. S. 223, 239­241 (1993). That is not the case here. To require that Congress explicitly state its intention not to adopt petitioner's reading would make the rule applicable with the "mere possibility of articulating a narrower construction," id., at 239, a result supported by neither lenity nor logic. As the District Court correctly noted in this case, the plain language of the statute and settled interpretive principles reveal that proof of an overt act is not required to establish a violation of 21 U. S. C. § 846. Accordingly, the judgment of the Court of Appeals is Reversed. 513us1$$4z 03-28-98 15:54:16 PAGES OPINPGT 18 OCTOBER TERM, 1994 Syllabus U. S. BANCORP MORTGAGE CO. v. BONNER MALL PARTNERSHIP certiorari to the united states court of appeals for the ninth circuit No. 93­714. Argued October 4, 1994-Decided November 8, 1994 After this Court granted the petition for a writ of certiorari and received briefing on the merits, the parties entered into a settlement and agreed that the case was thereby mooted. Petitioner, however, also requested that the Court exercise its power under 28 U. S. C. § 2106 to vacate the judgment of the Court of Appeals. Respondent opposed the motion. Held:1. This Court does not lack the power to entertain petitioner's motion to vacate. Section 2106 supplies the vacatur power, and respondent's suggestion is rejected that Article III's case or controversy requirement prohibits the exercise of that power when no live dispute exists due to a settlement that has mooted the case. Although Article III prevents the Court from considering the merits of a judgment that has become moot while awaiting review, the Court may nevertheless make such dis- position of the whole case as justice may require. Walling v. James V. Reuter, Inc., 321 U. S. 671, 677. Pp. 20­22. 2. Mootness by reason of settlement does not justify vacatur of a fed- eral civil judgment under review. United States v. Munsingwear, Inc., 340 U. S. 36, 39­40, and subsequent cases distinguished. Equitable principles have always been implicit in this Court's exercise of the vaca- tur power, and the principal equitable factor to which the Court has looked is whether the party seeking vacatur caused the mootness by voluntary action. Where mootness results from settlement, the losing party has voluntarily forfeited his legal remedy by the ordinary proc- esses of appeal or certiorari, thereby surrendering his claim to the ex- traordinary equitable remedy of vacatur. It is irrelevant that the party who won below also agreed to the settlement, since it is the losing party who has the burden of demonstrating equitable entitlement to vacatur. This result is supported by the public interest in the orderly operation of the federal judicial system; petitioner's countervailing policy argu- ments are not persuasive. Although exceptional circumstances may conceivably justify vacatur when mootness results from settlement, such circumstances do not include the mere fact that the settlement agree- ment provides for vacatur.

Scalia, J., delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court. Brandford Anderson argued the cause for petitioner. With him on the briefs were Dale G. Higer and David B. Levant.

John Ford Elsaesser, Jr., argued the cause for respondent. With him on the brief were Isaac M. Pachulski, K. John Shaffer, and Barbara Buchanan.* Justice Scalia delivered the opinion of the Court. The question in this case is whether appellate courts in the federal system should vacate civil judgments of subordinate courts in cases that are settled after appeal is filed or certio- rari sought. I In 1984 and 1985, Northtown Investments built the Bonner Mall in Bonner County, Idaho, with financing from a bank in that State. In 1986, respondent Bonner Mall Partnership (Bonner) acquired the mall, while petitioner U. S. Bancorp Mortgage Co. (Bancorp) acquired the loan and mortgage from the Idaho bank. In 1990, Bonner defaulted on its real estate taxes and Bancorp scheduled a foreclosure sale. The day before the sale, Bonner filed a petition under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U. S.

BONNER MALL PARTNERSHIP Opinion of the Court in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Idaho. It filed a reorganization plan that depended on the "new value exception" to the absolute priority rule.1 Ban- corp moved to suspend the automatic stay of its foreclosure imposed by 11 U. S. C. § 362(a), arguing that Bonner's plan was unconfirmable as a matter of law for a number of rea- sons, including unavailability of the new value exception. The Bankruptcy Court eventually granted the motion, con- cluding that the new value exception had not survived enact- ment of the Bankruptcy Code. The court stayed its order pending an appeal by Bonner. The United States District Court for the District of Idaho reversed, In re Bonner Mall Partnership, 142 B. R. 911 (1992); Bancorp took an appeal in turn, but the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit af- firmed, In re Bonner Mall Partnership, 2 F. 3d 899 (1993). Bancorp then petitioned for a writ of certiorari. After we granted the petition, 510 U. S. 1039 (1994), and received briefing on the merits, Bancorp and Bonner stipulated to a consensual plan of reorganization, which received the ap- proval of the Bankruptcy Court. The parties agreed that confirmation of the plan constituted a settlement that mooted the case. Bancorp, however, also requested that we exer- cise our power under 28 U. S.

S. 18 (1994) 21 Opinion of the Court cial power conferred by Article III, see U. S. Const., Art. III, § 1, "may, at least in some cases, prohibit an act of vacatur when no live dispute exists due to a settlement that has ren- dered a case moot." Brief for Respondent 21 (emphasis in original). The statute that supplies the power of vacatur provides: "The Supreme Court or any other court of appellate jurisdiction may affirm, modify, vacate, set aside or re- verse any judgment, decree, or order of a court lawfully brought before it for review, and may remand the cause and direct the entry of such appropriate judgment, de- cree, or order, or require such further proceedings to be had as may be just under the circumstances." 28 U. S. C. § 2106. Of course, no statute could authorize a federal court to decide the merits of a legal question not posed in an Article III case or controversy. For that purpose, a case must exist at all the stages of appellate review. Preiser v. Newkirk, 422 U. S. 395, 401 (1975); Mills v. Green, 159 U. S. 651, 653 (1895). But reason and authority refute the quite different notion that a federal appellate court may not take any action with regard to a piece of litigation once it has been determined that the requirements of Article III no longer are (or indeed never were) met. That proposition is contradicted whenever an appellate court holds that a district court lacked Article III jurisdiction in the first instance, vacates the decision, and remands with directions to dismiss. In cases that become moot while awaiting review, respondent's logic would hold the Court powerless to award costs, e. g., Heitmuller v. Stokes, 256 U. S. 359, 362­363 (1921), or even to enter an order of dismissal. Article III does not prescribe such paralysis. "If a judg- ment has become moot [while awaiting review], this Court may not consider its merits, but may make such disposition of the whole case as justice may require." Walling v. James 513us1$$4K 03-28-98 15:54:16 PAGES OPINPGT 22 U. S. BANCORP MORTGAGE CO. v. BONNER MALL PARTNERSHIP Opinion of the Court V. Reuter, Inc., 321 U. S. 671, 677 (1944). As with other mat- ters of judicial administration and practice "reasonably ancil- lary to the primary, dispute-deciding function" of the federal courts, Chandler v. Judicial Council of Tenth Circuit, 398 U. S. 74, 111 (1970) (Harlan, J., concurring in denial of writ), Congress may authorize us to enter orders necessary and appropriate to the final disposition of a suit that is before us for review. See Mistretta v. United States, 488 U. S. 361, 389­390 (1989); see also id., at 417 (Scalia, J., dissenting). III The leading case on vacatur is United States v. Munsing- wear, Inc., 340 U. S. 36 (1950), in which the United States sought injunctive and monetary relief for violation of a price control regulation. The damages claim was held in abey- ance pending a decision on the injunction. The District Court held that the respondent's prices complied with the regulations and dismissed the complaint. While the United States' appeal was pending, the commodity at issue was de- controlled; at the respondent's request, the case was dis- missed as moot, a disposition in which the United States ac- quiesced. The respondent then obtained dismissal of the damages action on the ground of res judicata, and we took the case to review that ruling. The United States protested the unfairness of according preclusive effect to a decision that it had tried to appeal but could not. We saw no such unfairness, reasoning that the United States should have asked the Court of Appeals to vacate the District Court's decision before the appeal was dismissed. We stated that "[t]he established practice of the Court in dealing with a civil case from a court in the federal system which has become moot while on its way here or pending our decision on the merits is to reverse or vacate the judgment below and re- mand with a direction to dismiss." Id., at 39. We explained that vacatur "clears the path for future relitigation of the issues between the parties and eliminates a judgment, re- 513us1$$4K 03-28-98 15:54:16 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 18 (1994) 23 Opinion of the Court view of which was prevented through happenstance." Id., at 40. Finding that the United States had "slept on its rights," id., at 41, we affirmed. The parties in the present case agree that vacatur must be decreed for those judgments whose review is, in the words of Munsingwear, " `prevented through happenstance' "-that is to say, where a controversy presented for review has "be- come moot due to circumstances unattributable to any of the parties." Karcher v. May, 484 U. S. 72, 82, 83 (1987). They also agree that vacatur must be granted where mootness re- sults from the unilateral action of the party who prevailed in the lower court. The contested question is whether courts should vacate where mootness results from a settlement. The centerpiece of petitioner's argument is that the Mun- singwear procedure has already been held to apply in such cases. Munsingwear's description of the "established prac- tice" (the argument runs) drew no distinctions between cate- gories of moot cases; opinions in later cases granting vacatur have reiterated the breadth of the rule, see, e. g., Great West- ern Sugar Co. v. Nelson, 442 U. S. 92, 93 (1979) (per curiam); and at least some of those cases specifically involved moot- ness by reason of settlement, see, e. g., Lake Coal Co. v. Rob- erts & Schaeffer Co., 474 U. S. 120 (1985) (per curiam). But Munsingwear, and the post-Munsingwear practice, cannot bear the weight of the present case. To begin with, the portion of Justice Douglas' opinion in Munsingwear de- scribing the "established practice" for vacatur was dictum; all that was needful for the decision was (at most) the propo- sition that vacatur should have been sought, not that it nec- essarily would have been granted. Moreover, as Munsing- wear itself acknowledged, see 340 U. S., at 40, n. 2, the "established practice" (in addition to being unconsidered) was not entirely uniform, at least three cases having been dismissed for mootness without vacatur within the four Terms preceding Munsingwear. See, e. g., Schenley Distill- ing Corp. v. Anderson, 333 U. S. 878 (1948) (per curiam). 513us1$$4K 03-28-98 15:54:16 PAGES OPINPGT 24 U. S. BANCORP MORTGAGE CO. v. BONNER MALL PARTNERSHIP Opinion of the Court Nor has the post-Munsingwear practice been as uniform as petitioner claims. See, e. g., Allen & Co. v. Pacific Dunlop Holdings, Inc., 510 U. S. 1160 (1994); Minnesota Newspaper Assn., Inc. v. Postmaster General, 488 U. S. 998 (1989); St. Luke's Federation of Nurses and Health Professionals v. Presbyterian/St. Lukes Medical Center, 459 U. S. 1025 (1982).2 Of course all of those decisions, both granting vaca- tur and denying it, were per curiam, with the single excep- tion of Karcher v. May, supra, in which we declined to va- cate. This seems to us a prime occasion for invoking our customary refusal to be bound by dicta, e. g., McCray v. Illi- nois, 386 U. S. 300, 312, n. 11 (1967), and our customary skep- ticism toward per curiam dispositions that lack the reasoned consideration of a full opinion, see Edelman v. Jordan, 415 U. S. 651, 670­671 (1974). Today we examine vacatur once more in the light shed by adversary presentation. The principles that have always been implicit in our treat- ment of moot cases counsel against extending Munsingwear to settlement. From the beginning we have disposed of moot cases in the manner " `most consonant to justice' . . . in view of the nature and character of the conditions which have caused the case to become moot." United States v. Hamburg-Amerikanische Packetfahrt-Actien Gesellschaft, 239 U. S. 466, 477­478 (1916) (quoting South Spring Hill Gold Mining Co. v. Amador Medean Gold Mining Co., 145 U. S. 300, 302 (1892)). The principal condition to which we have looked is whether the party seeking relief from the judgment below caused the mootness by voluntary action. See Hamburg-Amerikanische, supra, at 478 (remanding a moot case for dismissal because "the ends of justice exact 2 The Solicitor General, who has filed an amicus brief in support of peti- tioner, would apparently distinguish these unvacated cases on the ground that the dismissal was pursuant to this Court's Rule 46.1 (or its predeces- sor), which provides for dismissal when "all parties . . . agre[e]." But such an exception to vacatur for mootness is not mentioned in Munsingwear; nor, we may add, do we see any reason of policy to commend it. 513us1$$4K 03-28-98 15:54:16 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 18 (1994) 25 Opinion of the Court that the judgment below should not be permitted to stand when without any fault of the [petitioner] there is no power to review it upon the merits"); Heitmuller v. Stokes, 256 U. S., at 362 (remanding for dismissal because "without fault of the plaintiff in error, the defendant in error, after the pro- ceedings below, . . . caus[ed] the case to become moot"). The reference to "happenstance" in Munsingwear must be understood as an allusion to this equitable tradition of vacatur. A party who seeks review of the merits of an ad- verse ruling, but is frustrated by the vagaries of circum- stance, ought not in fairness be forced to acquiesce in the judgment.3 See Hamburg-Amerikanische, supra, at 477­ 478. The same is true when mootness results from unilat- eral action of the party who prevailed below. See Walling, 321 U. S., at 675; Heitmuller, supra, at 362. Where moot- ness results from settlement, however, the losing party has voluntarily forfeited his legal remedy by the ordinary proc- esses of appeal or certiorari, thereby surrendering his claim to the equitable remedy of vacatur. The judgment is not unreviewable, but simply unreviewed by his own choice. The denial of vacatur is merely one application of the prin- ciple that "[a] suitor's conduct in relation to the matter at hand may disentitle him to the relief he seeks." Sanders v. United States, 373 U. S. 1, 17 (1963) (citing Fay v. Noia, 372 U. S. 391, 438 (1963)). In these respects the case stands no differently than it would if jurisdiction were lacking because the losing party failed to appeal at all. In Karcher v. May, supra, two state 3 We thus stand by Munsingwear's dictum that mootness by happen- stance provides sufficient reason to vacate. Whether that principle was correctly applied to the circumstances of that case is another matter. The suit for injunctive relief in Munsingwear became moot on appeal because the regulations sought to be enforced by the United States were annulled by Executive Order. See Fleming v. Munsingwear, Inc., 162 F. 2d 125, 127 (CA8 1947). We express no view on Munsingwear's implicit conclu- sion that repeal of administrative regulations cannot fairly be attributed to the Executive Branch when it litigates in the name of the United States. 513us1$$4K 03-28-98 15:54:16 PAGES OPINPGT 26 U. S. BANCORP MORTGAGE CO. v. BONNER MALL PARTNERSHIP Opinion of the Court legislators, acting in their capacities as presiding officers of the legislature, appealed from a federal judgment that invali- dated a state statute on constitutional grounds. After the jurisdictional statement was filed the legislators lost their posts, and their successors in office withdrew the appeal. Holding that we lacked jurisdiction for want of a proper ap- pellant, we dismissed. The legislators then argued that the judgments should be vacated under Munsingwear. But we denied the request, noting that "[t]his controversy did not become moot due to circumstances unattributable to any of the parties. The controversy ended when the losing party- the [State] Legislature-declined to pursue its appeal. Ac- cordingly, the Munsingwear procedure is inapplicable to this case." Karcher, 484 U. S., at 83. So, too, here. It is true, of course, that respondent agreed to the settle- ment that caused the mootness. Petitioner argues that va- catur is therefore fair to respondent, and seeks to distinguish our prior cases on that ground. But that misconceives the emphasis on fault in our decisions. That the parties are jointly responsible for settling may in some sense put them on even footing, but petitioner's case needs more than that. Respondent won below. It is petitioner's burden, as the party seeking relief from the status quo of the appellate judgment, to demonstrate not merely equivalent responsibil- ity for the mootness, but equitable entitlement to the ex- traordinary remedy of vacatur. Petitioner's voluntary for- feiture of review constitutes a failure of equity that makes the burden decisive, whatever respondent's share in the mooting of the case might have been. As always when federal courts contemplate equitable re- lief, our holding must also take account of the public interest. "Judicial precedents are presumptively correct and valuable to the legal community as a whole. They are not merely the property of private litigants and should stand unless a court concludes that the public interest would be served by a va- catur." Izumi Seimitsu Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha v. U. S. 513us1$$4K 03-28-98 15:54:16 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 18 (1994) 27 Opinion of the Court Philips Corp., 510 U. S. 27, 40 (1993) (Stevens, J., dissent- ing). Congress has prescribed a primary route, by appeal as of right and certiorari, through which parties may seek relief from the legal consequences of judicial judgments. To allow a party who steps off the statutory path to employ the secondary remedy of vacatur as a refined form of collateral attack on the judgment would-quite apart from any consid- erations of fairness to the parties-disturb the orderly oper- ation of the federal judicial system. Munsingwear estab- lishes that the public interest is best served by granting relief when the demands of "orderly procedure," 340 U. S., at 41, cannot be honored; we think conversely that the public interest requires those demands to be honored when they can. Petitioner advances two arguments meant to justify vaca- tur on systemic grounds. The first is that appellate judg- ments in cases that we have consented to review by writ of certiorari are reversed more often than they are affirmed, are therefore suspect, and should be vacated as a sort of prophylactic against legal error. It seems to us inappropri- ate, however, to vacate mooted cases, in which we have no constitutional power to decide the merits, on the basis of assumptions about the merits. Second, petitioner suggests that "[v]acating a moot decision, and thereby leaving an issue . . . temporarily unresolved in a Circuit, can facilitate the ultimate resolution of the issue by encouraging its continued examination and debate." Brief for Petitioner 33. We have found, however, that debate among the courts of appeals suf- ficiently illuminates the questions that come before us for review. The value of additional intracircuit debate seems to us far outweighed by the benefits that flow to litigants and the public from the resolution of legal questions. A final policy justification urged by petitioner is the facili- tation of settlement, with the resulting economies for the federal courts. But while the availability of vacatur may facilitate settlement after the judgment under review has 513us1$$4K 03-28-98 15:54:16 PAGES OPINPGT 28 U. S. BANCORP MORTGAGE CO. v. BONNER MALL PARTNERSHIP Opinion of the Court been rendered and certiorari granted (or appeal filed), it may deter settlement at an earlier stage. Some litigants, at least, may think it worthwhile to roll the dice rather than settle in the district court, or in the court of appeals, if, but only if, an unfavorable outcome can be washed away by a settlement-related vacatur. And the judicial economies achieved by settlement at the district-court level are ordi- narily much more extensive than those achieved by settle- ment on appeal. We find it quite impossible to assess the effect of our holding, either way, upon the frequency or sys- temic value of settlement. Although the case before us involves only a motion to va- cate, by reason of settlement, the judgment of a court of appeals (with, of course, the consequential vacation of the underlying judgment of the district court), it is appropriate to discuss the relevance of our holding to motions at the court-of-appeals level for vacatur of district-court judgments. Some opinions have suggested that vacatur motions at that level should be more freely granted, since district-court judg- ments are subject to review as of right. See, e. g., Manufac- turers Hanover Trust Co. v. Yanakas, 11 F. 3d 381, 384 (CA2 1993). Obviously, this factor does not affect the primary basis for our denying vacatur. Whether the appellate court's seizure of the case is the consequence of an appellant's right or of a petitioner's good luck has no bearing upon the lack of equity of a litigant who has voluntarily abandoned review. If the point of the proposed distinction is that district-court judgments, being subject to review as of right, are more likely to be overturned and hence presumptively less valid: We again assert the inappropriateness of disposing of cases, whose merits are beyond judicial power to consider, on the basis of judicial estimates regarding their merits. Moreover, as petitioner's own argument described two para- graphs above points out, the reversal rate for cases in which this Court grants certiorari (a precondition for our vacatur) is over 50%-more than double the reversal rate for appeals 513us1$$4K 03-28-98 15:54:16 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

Rev. 589, 595, n. 25 (1991) (citing studies). We hold that mootness by reason of settlement does not justify vacatur of a judgment under review. This is not to say that vacatur can never be granted when mootness is produced in that fashion. As we have described, the deter- mination is an equitable one, and exceptional circumstances may conceivably counsel in favor of such a course. It should be clear from our discussion, however, that those exceptional circumstances do not include the mere fact that the settle- ment agreement provides for vacatur-which neither dimin- ishes the voluntariness of the abandonment of review nor alters any of the policy considerations we have discussed. Of course even in the absence of, or before considering the existence of, extraordinary circumstances, a court of appeals presented with a request for vacatur of a district-court judg- ment may remand the case with instructions that the district court consider the request, which it may do pursuant to Fed- eral Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b). * * * Petitioner's motion to vacate the judgment of the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit is denied.

PORT AUTHORITY TRANS-HUDSON CORPORATION certiorari to the united states court of appeals for the third circuit No. 93­1197. Argued October 3, 1994-Decided November 14, 1994 Petitioners, two railroad workers, were injured in unrelated incidents while employed by respondent bistate railway, the Port Authority Trans-Hudson Corporation (PATH). PATH is a wholly owned subsid- iary of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (Port Authority or Authority), an entity created when Congress, pursuant to the Consti- tution's Interstate Compact Clause, consented to a compact between the Authority's parent States. Petitioners filed separate personal injury actions under the Federal Employers' Liability Act (FELA). The District Court dismissed the suits under Third Circuit precedent, Port Authority Police Benevolent Assn., Inc. v. Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, 819 F. 2d 413 (CA3) (Port Authority PBA), which declared PATH a state agency entitled to Eleventh Amendment immu- nity from suit in federal court. The Third Circuit consolidated the cases and summarily affirmed. That court's assessment of PATH's im- munity conflicts with the Second Circuit's decision in Feeney v. Port Authority Trans-Hudson Corporation, 873 F. 2d 628. Held: PATH is not entitled to Eleventh Amendment immunity from suit in federal court. Pp. 39­53. (a) The Court presumes that an entity created pursuant to the Com- pact Clause does not qualify for Eleventh Amendment immunity unless there is good reason to believe that the States structured the entity to arm it with the States' own immunity, and that Congress concurred in that purpose. Lake Country Estates, Inc. v. Tahoe Regional Planning Agency, 440 U. S. 391, 401. The Port Authority emphasizes that certain indicators of immunity are present in this case, particularly provisions in the interstate compact and its implementing legislation establishing state control over Authority commissioners, acts, powers, and responsi- bilities, and state-court decisions typing the Authority as an agency of its parent States. Other indicators, however, point away from immu- nity, particularly the States' lack of financial responsibility for the Au- thority. Pp. 39­46. (b) When indicators of immunity point in different directions, the Court is guided primarily by the Eleventh Amendment's twin reasons 513us1$$5z 03-28-98 15:59:26 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 30 (1994) 31 Syllabus for being: the States' dignity and their financial solvency. Neither is implicated here. First, there is no genuine threat to the dignity of New York or New Jersey in allowing petitioners to pursue FELA claims against PATH in federal court. The Port Authority is a discrete entity created by compact among three sovereigns, the two States and the Federal Government. Federal courts are not alien to such an en- tity, for they are ordained by one of its founders. Nor is it disrespectful to one State to call upon the entity to answer complaints in federal court, for the States agreed to the power sharing, coordination, and unified action that typify Compact Clause creations. Second, most Federal Courts of Appeals have identified the "state treasury" crite- rion-whether a judgment against the entity must be satisfied out of a State's treasury-as the most important consideration in determining whether a state-created entity qualifies for Eleventh Amendment immu- nity. The Port Authority, however, is financially self-sufficient: it gen- erates its own revenues and pays its own debts. Where, as here, the States are neither legally nor practically obligated to pay the entity's debts, the Eleventh Amendment's core concern is not implicated. Pp. 47­51. (c) The conflict between the Second and Third Circuits no longer con- cerns the correct legal theory, for the Third Circuit, as shown in two post-Port Authority PBA decisions, now accepts the prevailing "state treasury" view. A narrow intercircuit split persists only because the Circuits differ on whether the Port Authority's debts are those of its parent States. In resolving that issue, the Port Authority PBA court relied primarily on a compact provision calling for modest state contri- butions, capped at $100,000 annually from each State, unless Port Au- thority revenues were "adequate to meet all expenditures," but the court drew from that provision far more than its text warrants.

I A Petitioners Albert Hess and Charles F. Walsh, both rail- road workers, were injured in unrelated incidents in the course of their employment by PATH. PATH, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (Port Authority or Authority), operates a com- muter railroad connecting New York City to northern New Jersey. In separate personal injury actions commenced in the United States District Court for the District of New Jer- sey, petitioners sought to recover damages for PATH's al- leged negligence; both claimed a right to compensation under the federal law governing injuries to railroad workers, the Federal Employers' Liability Act (FELA), 35 Stat. 65, as amended, 45 U. S. C. § 51 et seq.1 Hess and Walsh filed their complaints within the 3-year time limit set by the FELA, see 35 Stat. 66, as amended, 45 U. S. C. § 56, but neither peti- tioner met the 1-year limit specified in the States' statutory consent to sue the Port Authority. See N. J. Stat. Ann. §§ 32:1­157, 32:1­163 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Laws §§ 7101, 7107 (McKinney 1979). PATH moved to dismiss each action, asserting (1) PATH's qualification as a state agency entitled to the Eleventh Amendment immunity from suit in federal court enjoyed by New York and New Jersey,2 and (2) petitioners' failure to 1 Hess additionally invoked the Boiler Inspection Act, ch. 103, 36 Stat. 913, as amended, 45 U.

PORT AUTHORITY TRANS-HUDSON CORPORATION Opinion of the Court commence court proceedings within the 1-year limit pre- scribed by New York and New Jersey. Third Circuit prece- dent concerning the Port Authority supported PATH's plea. In Port Authority Police Benevolent Assn., Inc. v. Port Au- thority of New York and New Jersey, 819 F. 2d 413 (Port Authority PBA), cert. denied, 484 U. S. 953 (1987), the Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit held that the Port Authority is "an agency of the state and is thus entitled to Eleventh Amendment immunity." 819 F. 2d, at 418. In reaching this decision, the Court of Appeals acknowledged that "[g]iven the solvency and size of the [Port Authority's] General Reserve Fund, it is unlikely that the Authority would have to go to the state to get payment for any liabili- ties issued against it." Id., at 416.3 But the Third Circuit considered "crystal clear" the intentions of New York and New Jersey: "[I]f the Authority is ever in need of financial support, the states will be there to provide it." Ibid. In line with Port Authority PBA, the District Court held in the Hess and Walsh actions that PATH enjoys Eleventh Amendment immunity, and could be sued in federal court only within the 1-year time frame New York and New Jersey allowed. See Walsh, 813 F. Supp. 1095, 1096­1097 (NJ 1993); Hess, 809 F. Supp. 1172, 1178­1182 (NJ 1992). Accord- ingly, both actions were dismissed. The District Court in Hess noted an anomaly: Had Hess sued in a New Jersey or New York state court the FELA's 3-year limitation period, not the States' 1-year prescription, would have applied. See id., at 1183­1185, and n. 16. This followed from our reaffirmation in Hilton v. South Carolina Public Railways Comm'n, 502 U.

Consolidating Hess and Walsh on appeal, the Third Circuit summarily affirmed the District Court's judgments. 8 F. 3d 811 (1993) (table). B The Port Authority, whose Eleventh Amendment immu- nity is at issue in these cases, was created in 1921, when Congress, pursuant to the Constitution's Interstate Compact Clause,4 consented to a compact between the Authority's par- ent States. 42 Stat. 174. Through the bistate compact, New York and New Jersey sought to achieve "a better co- ordination of the terminal, transportation and other facilities of commerce in, about and through the port of New York." N. J. Stat. Ann. § 32:1­1 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 6401 (McKinney 1979). The compact grants the Port Au- thority power to "purchase, construct, lease and/or operate any terminal or transportation facility within [the Port of New York D]istrict; and to make charges for the use thereof; and for any of such purposes to own, hold, lease and/or oper- ate real or personal property, to borrow money and se- cure the same by bonds or by mortgages upon any prop- erty held or to be held by it." N. J. Stat. Ann. § 32:1­7 4 Article I, § 10, cl. 3, of the Constitution provides: "No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Ton- nage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agree- ment or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay." 513us1$$5P 03-28-98 15:59:26 PAGES OPINPGT 36 HESS v.

See App. to Pet. for Cert. 60a­61a.6 Twelve commissioners, six selected by each State, govern the Port Authority. See N. J. Stat. Ann. §§ 32:1­5, 32:12­3 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 6405 (McKinney 1979); 1930 N. Y. Laws, ch. 422, § 6. Each State may remove, for cause, the commissioners it appoints. See N. J. Stat. Ann. §§ 32:1­5, 32:12­5 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 6405 (McKinney 1979); 1930 N. Y. Laws, ch. 422, § 4. Consonant with the Authority's geographic domain, four of New York's six commissioners must be resident voters of New York City, and four of New Jersey's must be resident voters of the New Jersey portion of the Port of New York District. See N. J. Stat. Ann. § 32:1­5 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 6405 (McKinney 1979). The Port Authority's commissioners also serve as PATH's directors. See N. J. Stat.

See Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, Comprehensive Annual Financial Report 49, 64 (1993) (hereinafter 1993 Annual Financial Report). 513us1$$5P 03-28-98 15:59:26 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

Acting jointly, the state legislatures may augment the powers and responsi- bilities of the Port Authority, see N. J. Stat. Ann. § 32:1­8 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 6408 (McKinney 1979), and specify the purposes for which the Port Authority's sur- plus revenues are used. See N. J. Stat. Ann. § 32:1­35.142 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 7002 (McKinney 1979). Debts and other obligations of the Port Authority are not liabilities of the two founding States, and the States do not appropriate funds to the Authority. The compact and its im- plementing legislation bar the Port Authority from drawing on state tax revenue, pledging the credit of either State, or otherwise imposing any charge on either State. See N. J. Stat. Ann. §§ 32:1­8, 32:1­33 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law §§ 6408, 6459 (McKinney 1979). The States did agree to appropriate sums to cover the Au- thority's "salaries, office and other administrative expenses," N. J. Stat. Ann. § 32:1­16 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 6416 (McKinney 1979), but this undertaking is notably mod- est.7 By its terms, it applies only "until the revenues from operations conducted by the [P]ort [A]uthority are adequate to meet all expenditures." The promise of support has a low ceiling: $100,000 annually from each State. Thus, the States in no way undertake to cover the bulk of the Author- 7 Compact article XV, the provision for expense coverage, reads in full: "Unless and until the revenues from operations conducted by the [P]ort [A]uthority are adequate to meet all expenditures, the legislatures of the two states shall appropriate, in equal amounts, annually, for the salaries, office and other administrative expenses, such sum or sums as shall be recommended by the [P]ort [A]uthority and approved by the governors of the two states, but each state obligates itself hereunder only to the extent of one hundred thousand dollars in any one year." N. J. Stat. Ann. § 32:1­16 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 6416 (McKinney 1979). 513us1$$5P 03-28-98 15:59:26 PAGES OPINPGT 38 HESS v.

Further, even the lim- ited administrative expense payments for which the States provided are contingent on the advance approval of both Governors, see ibid., and the States' treasuries may not be tapped until both legislatures have appropriated the nec- essary funds. See N. J. Stat. Ann. § 32:1­18 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 6418 (McKinney 1979). A judgment against PATH, it is thus apparent, would not be enforceable against either New York or New Jersey. C The Third Circuit's assessment of PATH's qualification for Eleventh Amendment immunity conflicts with the judgment of the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on the same matter. See Feeney v. Port Authority Trans-Hudson Cor- poration, 873 F. 2d 628, 631 (1989), aff'd on other grounds, 495 U. S. 299 (1990). The Second Circuit concluded: "No provision [of the compact or of state legislation pursuant to the compact] commits the treasuries of the two states to satisfy judgments against the Port Author- ity . . . . We believe that this insulation of state treasur- ies from the liabilities of the Port Authority outweighs both the methods of appointment and gubernatorial veto so far as the Eleventh Amendment immunity is con- cerned." 873 F. 2d, at 631. We affirmed the Second Circuit's judgment in Feeney, but we bypassed the question whether PATH enjoyed the States' Eleventh Amendment immunity. See Port Authority Trans-Hudson Corp. v. Feeney, 495 U. S. 299 (1990). Assum- ing, arguendo, that the suit in Feeney was tantamount to a claim against the States,8 we ruled that New York and New 8 Our assumption was in accord with prior state and federal decisions typing the Port Authority a state arm or agency.

Consent is not arguable here, because Hess and Walsh commenced suit too late to meet the 1-year prescrip- tion specified by the States. See supra, at 33. Accordingly, we confront directly the sole question petitioners Hess and Walsh present, and we hold that PATH is not entitled to Eleventh Amendment immunity from suit in federal court. II The Eleventh Amendment largely shields States from suit in federal court without their consent, leaving parties with claims against a State to present them, if the State permits, in the State's own tribunals. Adoption of the Amendment responded most immediately to the States' fears that "fed- eral courts would force them to pay their Revolutionary War debts, leading to their financial ruin."

Fiske, 290 U. S. 18, 27 (1933).9 More perva- sively, current Eleventh Amendment jurisprudence empha- sizes the integrity retained by each State in our federal system: "The Amendment is rooted in a recognition that the States, although a union, maintain certain attributes of sovereignty, including sovereign immunity. See Hans (1964); Miller v. Port of New York Authority, 18 N. J. Misc. 601, 606, 15 A. 2d 262, 266 (Sup. Ct. 1939). 9 As Chief Justice John Marshall recounted: "[A]t the adoption of the [C]onstitution, all the States were greatly indebted; and the apprehension that these debts might be prosecuted in the federal Courts" prompted swift passage of the Eleventh Amendment. Cohens v. Virginia, 6 Wheat. 264, 406 (1821). See generally 1 C. Warren, The Supreme Court in United States History 96­102 (1922). 513us1$$5P 03-28-98 15:59:26 PAGES OPINPGT 40 HESS v.

Bistate entities occupy a significantly different position in our federal system than do the States themselves. The States, as separate sovereigns, are the constituent elements of the Union. Bistate entities, in contrast, typically are cre- ations of three discrete sovereigns: two States and the Fed- eral Government.10 Their mission is to address " `interests and problems that do not coincide nicely either with the na- tional boundaries or with State lines' "-interests that " `may be badly served or not served at all by the ordinary channels of National or State political action.'

The scarcity of land and mounting commerce have concentrated on the New York side of the Hudson River the bulk of the terminal facilities for foreign com- merce, while it has made the Jersey side, to a substantial extent, the terminal and breaking-up yards for the east- and west-bound traffic. In addition, both sides of the Hudson are dotted with municipalities, who have sought to satisfy their interest in the general problem through a confusion of local regulations. In addition, the United States has been asserting its guardianship over inter- state and foreign commerce. What in fact was one, in law was many. Plainly the situation could not be ade- quately dealt with except through the coordinated ef- forts of New York, New Jersey, and the United States. The facts presented a problem for the unified action of the law-making of these three governments, and law heeded facts." Frankfurter & Landis, The Compact Clause of the Constitution-A Study in Interstate Ad- justments, 34 Yale L. J. 685, 697 (1925) (footnote omitted). Suit in federal court is not an affront to the dignity of a Compact Clause entity, for the federal court, in relation to such an enterprise, is hardly the instrument of a distant, dis- connected sovereign; rather, the federal court is ordained by one of the entity's founders. Nor is the integrity of the com- pacting States compromised when the Compact Clause en- tity is sued in federal court. As part of the federal plan prescribed by the Constitution, the States agreed to the power sharing, coordination, and unified action that typify 513us1$$5P 03-28-98 15:59:26 PAGES OPINPGT 42 HESS v. PORT AUTHORITY TRANS-HUDSON CORPORATION Opinion of the Court Compact Clause creations.11 Again, the federal tribunal cannot be regarded as alien in this cooperative, trigovern- mental arrangement. This is all the more apparent here, where the very claims in suit-the FELA claims of Hess and Walsh-arise under federal law. See supra, at 33. Because Compact Clause entities owe their existence to state and federal sovereigns acting cooperatively, and not to any "one of the United States," see supra, at 33, n. 2, their political accountability is diffuse; they lack the tight tie to the people of one State that an instrument of a single State has: "An interstate compact, by its very nature, shifts a part of a state's authority to another state or states, or to the agency the several states jointly create to run the compact. Such an agency under the control of special interests or gubernatorially appointed representatives is two or more steps removed from popular control, or even of control by a local government." M. Ridgeway, Interstate Compacts: A Question of Federalism 300 (1971). In sum, within any single State in our representative democ- racy, voters may exercise their political will to direct state policy; bistate entities created by compact, however, are not subject to the unilateral control of any one of the States that compose the federal system. Accordingly, there is good reason not to amalgamate Com- pact Clause entities with agencies of "one of the United States" for Eleventh Amendment purposes. This Court so recognized in Lake Country Estates, Inc. v. Tahoe Regional Planning Agency, 440 U. S. 391 (1979), the only case, prior 11 See Port Authority Trans-Hudson Corp. v. Feeney, 495 U.

S. 30 (1994) 43 Opinion of the Court to this one, in which we decided whether a bistate entity qualified for Eleventh Amendment immunity.12 Lake Country rejected a plea that the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA), an agency created by compact to which California and Nevada were parties, acquired the im- munity which the Eleventh Amendment accords to each one of TRPA's parent States. TRPA had argued that if the Amendment shields each State, then surely it must shield an entity "so important that it could not be created by [two] States without a special Act of Congress." Id., at 400. That "expansive reading," we said, was not warranted, for the Amendment specifies "the State" as the entity protected: "By its terms, the protection afforded by [the Eleventh] Amendment is only available to `one of the United States.' It is true, of course, that some agencies exer- cising state power have been permitted to invoke the Amendment in order to protect the state treasury from liability that would have had essentially the same practi- cal consequences as a judgment against the State itself. But the Court has consistently refused to construe the Amendment to afford protection to political subdivisions such as counties and municipalities, even though such entities exercise a `slice of state power.' " Id., at 400­ 401 (footnotes omitted). We then set out a general approach: We would presume the Compact Clause agency does not qualify for Eleventh Amendment immunity "[u]nless there is good reason to be- lieve that the States structured the new agency to enable it to enjoy the special constitutional protection of the States 12 Petty v. Tennessee-Missouri Bridge Comm'n, 359 U. S. 275, 279, 281­ 282 (1959), and Feeney, 495 U. S., at 308­309, also involved Eleventh Amendment pleas by bistate agencies; we upheld the exercise of federal- court jurisdiction in both cases on the ground that the asserted immunity from suit had been waived. 513us1$$5P 03-28-98 15:59:26 PAGES OPINPGT 44 HESS v. PORT AUTHORITY TRANS-HUDSON CORPORATION Opinion of the Court themselves, and that Congress concurred in that purpose." Id., at 401. The Court in Lake Country found "no justification for reading additional meaning into the limited language of the Amendment." Indeed, all relevant considerations in that case weighed against TRPA's plea. The compact called TRPA a "political subdivision," and required that the major- ity of the governing members be county and city appointees. Ibid. Obligations of TRPA, the compact directed, "shall not be binding on either State." TRPA's prime function, we noted, was regulation of land use, a function traditionally performed by local governments. Further, the agency's performance of that function gave rise to the litigation. Moreover, rules made by TRPA were "not subject to veto at the state level." Id., at 402. This case is more complex. Indicators of immunity or the absence thereof do not, as they did in Lake Country, all point the same way. While 8 of the Port Authority's 12 commis- sioners must be resident voters of either New York City or other parts of the Port of New York District,13 this indicator of local governance is surely offset by the States' controls. All commissioners are state appointees. Acting alone, each State through its Governor may block Port Authority meas- ures; and acting together, both States, through their legisla- tures, may enlarge the Port Authority's powers and add to its responsibilities. The compact and its implementing legislation do not type the Authority as a state agency; instead they use various terms: "joint or common agency"; 14 "body corporate and poli- 13 Cf. Farias v. Bexar Cty.

S. 30 (1994) 45 Opinion of the Court tic"; 15 "municipal corporate instrumentality of the two states for the purpose of developing the port and effectuating the pledge of the states in the . . . compact." 16 State courts, however, repeatedly have typed the Port Authority an agency of the States rather than a municipal unit or local district. See, e. g., Whalen v. Wagner, 4 N. Y. 2d 575, 581­ 583, 152 N. E. 2d 54, 56­57 (1958) (legislation authorizing specific Port Authority projects does not pertain to the "property, affairs or government" of a city because "the mat- ters over which the Port Authority has jurisdiction are of State concern"). Port Authority functions are not readily classified as typi- cally state or unquestionably local. States and municipali- ties alike own and operate bridges, tunnels, ferries, marine terminals, airports, bus terminals, industrial parks, also com- muter railroads.17 This consideration, therefore, does not advance our Eleventh Amendment inquiry. Pointing away from Eleventh Amendment immunity, the States lack financial responsibility for the Port Authority. Conceived as a fiscally independent entity financed predomi- nantly by private funds, see United States Trust Co. of N. Y. v. New Jersey, 431 U. S., at 4, the Authority generates its own revenues, and for decades has received no money from the States. See Commissioner v. Shamberg's Estate, 144 F. 2d 998, 1002 (CA2 1944) ("In the compact . . . the states agreed to make annual appropriations (not in excess of $100,000 for each state) for expenses of the Authority until 15 N.

These annual appropriations were discontinued in 1934 because the revenues from the bridges, the Holland Tunnel and Inland Terminal had become sufficient."), cert. denied, 323 U. S. 792 (1945). The States, as earlier observed, bear no legal liability for Port Authority debts; they are not responsible for the pay- ment of judgments against the Port Authority or PATH. The Third Circuit, in Port Authority PBA, assumed that, "if the Authority is ever in need," the States would pay. 819 F. 2d, at 416. But nothing in the compact or the laws of either State supports that assumption. See supra, at 37­38. As the Second Circuit concisely stated: "The Port Authority is explicitly barred from pledging the credit of either state or from borrowing money in any name but its own. Even the provision for the ap- propriation of moneys for administrative expenses up to $100,000 per year requires prior approval by the gover- nor of each state and an actual appropriation before obli- gations for such expenses may be incurred. Moreover, the phrase `salaries, office and other administrative ex- penses' clearly limits this essentially optional obligation of the two states to a very narrow category of expenses and thus also evidences an intent to insulate the states' treasuries from the vast bulk of the Port Authority's operating and capital expenses, including personal in- jury judgments." Feeney, 873 F. 2d, at 631.18 18 Concerning the Third Circuit's decision in Port Authority PBA, the Second Circuit said: "That decision . . . was based on the Third Circuit's understanding that, in the event that `a judgment were entered against the Authority that was serious enough to deplete its resources, the Authority would be able to go to the state legislatures in order to recoup the amount needed for its oper- ating expenses.' To the extent that this statement implies that the states must make such an appropriation, it appears to be in error." Feeney, 873 F. 2d, at 632 (quoting Port Authority PBA, 819 F. 2d, at 416). 513us1$$5P 03-28-98 15:59:26 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 30 (1994) 47 Opinion of the Court III When indicators of immunity point in different directions, the Eleventh Amendment's twin reasons for being remain our prime guide. See supra, at 39­40. We have already pointed out that federal courts are not alien to a bistate en- tity Congress participated in creating. Nor is it disrespect- ful to one State to call upon the Compact Clause entity to answer complaints in federal court. See supra, at 41­43. Seeing no genuine threat to the dignity of New York or New Jersey in allowing Hess and Walsh to pursue FELA claims against PATH in federal court, we ask, as Lake Country in- structed, whether there is here "good reason to believe" the States and Congress designed the Port Authority to enjoy Eleventh Amendment immunity. 440 U. S., at 401. PATH urges that we find good reason to classify the Port Authority as a state agency for Eleventh Amendment pur- poses based on the control New York and New Jersey wield over the Authority. The States appoint and can remove the commissioners, the Governors can veto Port Authority ac- tions, and the States' legislatures can determine the projects the Port Authority undertakes. See supra, at 36­37. But ultimate control of every state-created entity resides with the State, for the State may destroy or reshape any unit it creates. "[P]olitical subdivisions exist solely at the whim and behest of their State," Feeney, 495 U. S., at 313 (Bren- nan, J., concurring in part and concurring in judgment), yet cities and counties do not enjoy Eleventh Amendment immu- nity. See, e. g., Mt. Healthy City Bd. of Ed. v. Doyle, 429 U. S. 274, 280 (1977); Lincoln County v. Luning, 133 U. S. 529, 530 (1890). Moreover, no one State alone can control the course of a Compact Clause entity. See supra, at 42, and n. 11. Gauging actual control, particularly when an en- tity has multiple creator-controllers, can be a "perilous in- quiry," "an uncertain and unreliable exercise." See Note, 92 Colum. L. Rev. 1243, 1284 (1992); see also id., at 1302, and n. 264 (describing "degree to which the state controls the 513us1$$5P 03-28-98 15:59:26 PAGES OPINPGT 48 HESS v. PORT AUTHORITY TRANS-HUDSON CORPORATION Opinion of the Court entity" as a criterion neither "[i]ntelligible" nor "judicially manageable"). Moreover, rendering control dispositive does not home in on the impetus for the Eleventh Amendment: the preven- tion of federal-court judgments that must be paid out of a State's treasury. See Fletcher, A Historical Interpretation of the Eleventh Amendment, 35 Stan. L. Rev. 1033, 1129 (1983) (identifying "the award of money judgments against the states" as "the traditional core of eleventh amendment protection").19 Accordingly, Courts of Appeals have recog- nized the vulnerability of the State's purse as the most sa- lient factor in Eleventh Amendment determinations. See, e. g., Baxter v. Vigo Cty. School Corp., 26 F. 3d 728, 732­733 (CA7 1994) (most significant factor is whether entity has power to raise its own funds); Hutsell v. Sayre, 5 F. 3d 996, 999 (CA6 1993) ("The most important factor . . . is whether any monetary judgment would be paid out of the state treas- ury."), cert. denied, 510 U.

Port Authority Trans-Hudson Corporation, 873 F. 2d, at 631 ("In cases where doubt has existed as to the availability of Eleventh Amendment immu- nity, the Supreme Court has emphasized the exposure of the state treasury as a critical factor."), aff'd on other grounds, 495 U.

The purpose of the immunity therefore largely disappears when a judgment against the entity does not entail a judgment against the state."), cert. denied, 474 U. S. 1057 (1986). In sum, as New York and New Jersey concede, the "vast majority of Circuits . . . have concluded that the state treasury factor is the most important factor to be considered . . . and, in practice, have generally accorded this factor dispositive weight." Brief for States of New Jersey, New York et al. as Amici Curiae 18­19. The Port Authority's anticipated and actual financial inde- pendence-its long history of paying its own way, see supra, at 37­38, and n. 7, 45­46-contrasts with the situation of transit facilities that place heavy fiscal tolls on their founding States. In Alaska Cargo Transport, Inc. v. Alaska R. Corp., 5 F. 3d 378 (CA9 1993), for example, Eleventh Amend- ment immunity was accorded a thinly capitalized railroad that depends for its existence on a state-provided "financial safety net of broad dimension." Id., at 381. And in Morris v. Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority, 781 F. 2d 218 (CADC 1986), Eleventh Amendment immunity was accorded an interstate transit system whose revenue short- fall Congress and the cooperating States anticipated from the start, an enterprise constantly dependent on funds from 513us1$$5P 03-28-98 15:59:26 PAGES OPINPGT 50 HESS v. PORT AUTHORITY TRANS-HUDSON CORPORATION Opinion of the Court the participating governments to meet its sizable operating deficits. See id., at 225­227. As the Morris court con- cluded: "[W]here an agency is so structured that, as a practi- cal matter, if the agency is to survive, a judgment must ex- pend itself against state treasuries, common sense and the rationale of the eleventh amendment require that sovereign immunity attach to the agency." Id., at 227.20 There is no such requirement where the agency is structured, as the Port Authority is, to be self-sustaining. Cf. Royal Carib- bean Corp. v. Puerto Rico Ports Authority, 973 F. 2d 8, 10­11 (CA1 1992) (Breyer, C. J.) (rejecting Eleventh Amendment immunity plea, despite Commonwealth's control over agency's executives, planning, and administration, where agency did not depend on Commonwealth financing for its income and covered its own expenses, including judgments against it). PATH maintains that the Port Authority's private funding and financial independence should be assessed differently. Operating profitably, the Port Authority dedicates at least some of its surplus to public projects which the States them- selves might otherwise finance. As an example, PATH notes a program under which the Port Authority purchases buses and then leases or transfers them without charge to public and private transportation entities in both States. See N. J. Stat. Ann. §§ 32:2­23.27 to 32:2­23.42 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Laws §§ 7201­7217 (McKinney Supp. 1994); 1993 Annual Financial Report 66. A judgment against the Port Authority, PATH contends, by reducing the Authority's surplus available to fund such projects, produces an effect equivalent to the impact of a judgment directly against the State. It follows, PATH suggests, that distinguishing the 20 The decision in Morris is compatible with our approach. See supra, at 43­44. Thus, we establish no "per se rule that the Eleventh Amend- ment never applies when States act in concert." Post, at 56 (O'Connor, J., dissenting). 513us1$$5P 03-28-98 15:59:27 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 30 (1994) 51 Opinion of the Court fiscal resources of the Port Authority from the fiscal re- sources of the States is unrealistic and artificial. This reasoning misses the mark. A charitable organiza- tion may undertake rescue or other good work which, in its absence, we would expect the State to shoulder. But none would conclude, for example, that in times of flood or famine the American Red Cross, to the extent it works for the pub- lic, acquires the States' Eleventh Amendment immunity.21 The proper focus is not on the use of profits or surplus, but rather is on losses and debts. If the expenditures of the enterprise exceed receipts, is the State in fact obligated to bear and pay the resulting indebtedness of the enterprise? When the answer is "No"-both legally and practically- then the Eleventh Amendment's core concern is not implicated. IV The conflict between the Second and Third Circuits, it bears emphasis, is no longer over the correct legal theory. Both Circuits, in accord with the prevailing view, see supra, at 48­49, identify "the `state treasury' criterion-whether any judgment must be satisfied out of the state treasury-as the most important consideration" in resolving an Eleventh Amendment immunity issue. Brief for States of New Jer- sey, New York et al. as Amici Curiae 2 (acknowledging, but opposing, this widely held view). The intercircuit division thus persists only because the Second and Third Circuits di- verge in answering the question: Are the Port Authority's debts those of its parent States? See ibid. Two Third Circuit decisions issued after Port Authority PBA, both rejecting Eleventh Amendment pleas by public 21 It would indeed heighten a "myster[y] of legal evolution" were we to spread an Eleventh Amendment cover over an agency that consumes no state revenues but contributes to the State's wealth.

Corning Hospital Dist., 55 Cal. 2d 211, 213­216, and n. 1, 359 P. 2d 457, 458­460, and n. 1 (1961) (Traynor, J.). 513us1$$5P 03-28-98 15:59:27 PAGES OPINPGT 52 HESS v. PORT AUTHORITY TRANS-HUDSON CORPORATION Opinion of the Court transit authorities, indicate the narrow compass of the cur- rent Circuit split. In Bolden v. Southeastern Pa. Transp. Authority, 953 F. 2d 807 (1991) (in banc), cert. denied, 504 U. S. 943 (1992), the Third Circuit held a regional transit au- thority not entitled to Eleventh Amendment immunity from suit, under 42 U. S. C. § 1983, in federal court. The "most important question," according to Circuit precedent, the Court of Appeals confirmed, was "whether any judgment would be paid from the state treasury." 953 F. 2d, at 816 (internal quotation marks omitted). Earlier, in Fitchik v. New Jersey Transit Rail Operations, Inc., 873 F. 2d 655 (in banc), cert. denied, 493 U. S. 850 (1989), an FELA suit, the Third Circuit concluded that the New Jersey Transit Corporation did not share the State's Eleventh Amendment immunity. As in Bolden, the court in Fitchik called "most important" the question "whether any judgment would be paid from the state treasury." 873 F. 2d, at 659. Accounting for Port Authority PBA in its later Bolden decision, the Third Circuit acknowledged that it had relied primarily on the interstate compact provision calling for state contributions unless Port Authority revenues were " `adequate to meet all expenditures.' " See Bolden, 953 F. 2d, at 815 (quoting compact article XV, set out supra, at 37, n. 7). As earlier indicated, however, see supra, at 37­38 and 46, the Third Circuit drew from the compact expense coverage provision far more than the text of that provision warrants. * * * A discrete entity created by constitutional compact among three sovereigns, the Port Authority is financially self- sufficient; it generates its own revenues, and it pays its own debts. Requiring the Port Authority to answer in federal court to injured railroad workers who assert a federal statu- tory right, under the FELA, to recover damages does not touch the concerns-the States' solvency and dignity-that underpin the Eleventh Amendment. The judgment of the 513us1$$5P 03-28-98 15:59:27 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 30 (1994) 53 Stevens, J., concurring Court of Appeals is accordingly reversed, and the Hess and Walsh cases are remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion. It is so ordered. Justice Stevens, concurring. Justice Ginsburg's thorough opinion demonstrates why the Court's answer to the open question this case presents is entirely faithful to precedent. I join her opinion without reservation, but believe it appropriate to identify an addi- tional consideration that has motivated my vote. Most of this Court's Eleventh Amendment jurisprudence is the product of judge-made law unsupported by the text of the Constitution. The Amendment provides as follows: "The Judicial power of the United States shall not be construed to extend to any suit in law or equity, com- menced or prosecuted against one of the United States by Citizens of another State, or by Citizens or Subjects of any Foreign State." As Justice Brennan explained in his dissent in Atascadero State Hospital v. Scanlon, 473 U. S. 234, 259­302 (1985), this language, when read in light of the historical evidence, is properly understood to mean that the grant of diversity ju- risdiction found in Article III, § 2, does not extend to actions brought by individuals against States. See also Welch v. Texas Dept. of Highways and Public Transp., 483 U. S. 468, 509­516 (1987) (Brennan, J., dissenting). Yet since Hans v. Louisiana, 134 U. S. 1 (1890), the Court has interpreted the Eleventh Amendment as injecting broad notions of sover- eign immunity into the whole corpus of federal jurisdiction. The Court's decisions have given us "two Eleventh Amend- ments," one narrow and textual and the other-not truly a constitutional doctrine at all-based on prudential considera- tions of comity and federalism. See Pennsylvania v. Union Gas Co., 491 U. S. 1, 23­29 (1989) (Stevens, J., concurring). 513us1$$5I 03-28-98 15:59:27 PAGES OPINPGT 54 HESS v. PORT AUTHORITY TRANS-HUDSON CORPORATION Stevens, J., concurring This Court's expansive Eleventh Amendment jurispru- dence is not merely misguided as a matter of constitutional law; it is also an engine of injustice. The doctrine of sover- eign immunity has long been the subject of scholarly criti- cism.1 And rightly so, for throughout the doctrine's history, it has clashed with the just principle that there should be a remedy for every wrong. See, e. g., Marbury v. Madison, 1 Cranch 137, 163 (1803). Sovereign immunity inevitably places a lesser value on administering justice to the individ- ual than on giving government a license to act arbitrarily. Arising as it did from the peculiarities of political life in feudal England, 1 F. Pollock & F. Maitland, History of Eng- lish Law 515­518 (2d ed. 1909), sovereign immunity is a doc- trine better suited to a divinely ordained monarchy than to our democracy.2 Chief Justice John Jay recognized as much over two centuries ago. See Chisholm v. Georgia, 2 Dall. 419, 471­472 (1793). Despite the doctrine's genesis in judi- cial decisions, ironically it has usually been the Legislature that has seen fit to curtail its reach. See Scalia, Sovereign Immunity and Nonstatutory Review of Federal Administra- tive Action: Some Conclusions from the Public-Lands Cases, 68 Mich. L. Rev. 867, 867­868 (1970). In my view, when confronted with the question whether a judge-made doctrine of this character should be extended or contained, it is entirely appropriate for a court to give 1 See, e. g., Borchard, Government Liability in Tort, 34 Yale L. J. 1 (1924); Davis, Sovereign Immunity Must Go, 22 Admin. L. Rev. 383 (1970). The criticism has not abated in recent years, but rather has focused on this Court's adherence to an unjustifiably broad interpretation of the Eleventh Amendment.

Justice O'Connor, with whom The Chief Justice, Justice Scalia, and Justice Thomas join, dissenting. The Court's opinion, as I read it, makes two different points. First, an interstate compact entity is presumptively not entitled to immunity under the Eleventh Amendment, because the States surrendered any such entitlement "[a]s part of the federal plan prescribed by the Constitution." Ante, at 41. When States act in concert under the Inter- state Compact Clause, they cede power to each other and to the Federal Government, which, by consenting to the state compact, becomes one of the compact entity's creators. As such, each individual State lacks meaningful control over the entity, and suits against the entity in federal court pose no affront to a State's "dignity." Ibid. Second, in place of the various factors recognized in Lake Country Estates, Inc. v. Tahoe Regional Planning Agency, 440 U. S. 391 (1979), for determining arm-of-the-state status, we may now substitute a single overriding criterion, vulnerability of the state treas- ury. If a State does not fund judgments against an entity, that entity is not within the ambit of the Eleventh Amend- ment, and suits in federal court may proceed unimpeded. By the Court's reckoning, the state treasury is not impli- cated on these facts. Neither, it follows, is the Eleventh Amendment. I disagree with both of these propositions and with the ultimate conclusion the Court draws from them. The Elev- enth Amendment, in my view, clothes this interstate entity with immunity from suit in federal courts. 3 "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice . . . do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

PORT AUTHORITY TRANS-HUDSON CORPORATION O'Connor, J., dissenting I Despite several invitations, this Court has not as yet had occasion to find an interstate entity shielded by the Eleventh Amendment from suit in federal court. See Port Authority Trans-Hudson Corp. v. Feeney, 495 U. S. 299 (1990) (assum- ing Eleventh Amendment applies, but finding waiver); Lake Country, supra (finding no reason to believe entity was arm of the State); Petty v. Tennessee-Missouri Bridge Comm'n, 359 U. S. 275 (1959) (same as Feeney). As I read its opinion, the Court now builds upon language in Lake Country to cre- ate what looks very much like a per se rule that the Eleventh Amendment never applies when States act in concert. To be sure, the Court leaves open the possibility that in certain undefined situations, we might find " `good reason' " to confer immunity where States structure an entity to enjoy immu- nity and we see evidence that " `Congress concurred in that purpose.' " Ante, at 43­44, quoting Lake Country, supra, at 401. But the crux of the Court's analysis rests on its ap- parent belief that the States ceded their sovereignty in the interstate compact context in the plan of the convention. See ante, at 41­42 ("As part of the federal plan prescribed by the Constitution, the States agreed to the power shar- ing, coordination, and unified action that typify Compact Clause creations"). Such broad reasoning brooks few, if any, exceptions. In reaching its conclusion, the Court attaches undue significance to the requirement that Congress consent to interstate compacts. Admittedly, the consent requirement performs an important function in our federal scheme. In Cuyler v. Adams, 449 U. S. 433 (1981), we observed that " `the requirement that Congress approve a compact is to obtain its political judgment: Is the agreement likely to in- terfere with federal activity in the area, is it likely to disad- vantage other States to an important extent, is it a matter that would better be left untouched by state and federal regulation?' " Id., at 440, n. 8, quoting United States Steel 513us1$$5J 03-28-98 15:59:27 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 30 (1994) 57 O'Connor, J., dissenting Corp. v. Multistate Tax Comm'n, 434 U. S. 452, 485 (1978) (White, J., dissenting). But the consent clause neither transforms the nature of state power nor makes Congress a full-fledged participant in the underlying agreement; it re- quires only that Congress "check any infringement of the rights of the national government." J. Story, Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States § 1403, p. 264 (T. Cooley ed. 1873). In consenting, Congress certifies that the States are acting within their boundaries in our federal scheme and that the national interest is not offended. Once Congress consents to cooperative state activity, there is no reason to presume that immunity does not attach. Sover- eign immunity, after all, inheres in the permissible exercise of state power. "If congress consent[s], then the states [are] in this respect restored to their original inherent sover- eignty; such consent being the sole limitation imposed by the constitution, when given, [leaves] the states as they were before . . . ." Rhode Island v. Massachusetts, 12 Pet. 657, 725 (1838); see also L. Tribe, American Constitutional Law § 6­33, p. 523 (2d ed. 1988). Even if the Court were correct that the States ceded a portion of their power to Congress in ratifying the consent provision, it would not logically or inevitably follow that any particular entity receives no immunity under the Eleventh Amendment. In Fitzpatrick v. Bitzer, 427 U. S. 445, 455­ 456 (1976), we held that the States surrendered a portion of their sovereign authority to Congress in ratifying § 5 of the Fourteenth Amendment. Despite this, we have consistently required " `an unequivocal expression of congressional intent to overturn the constitutionally guaranteed immunity of the several States' " before allowing suits against States to pro- ceed in federal court. Atascadero State Hospital v. Scan- lon, 473 U. S. 234, 240 (1985), quoting Pennhurst State School and Hospital v. Halderman, 465 U. S. 89, 99 (1984). Assuming, arguendo, that States ceded power to Congress to abrogate States' Eleventh Amendment immunity in the 513us1$$5J 03-28-98 15:59:27 PAGES OPINPGT 58 HESS v. PORT AUTHORITY TRANS-HUDSON CORPORATION O'Connor, J., dissenting interstate compact realm, our precedents caution that we should be reluctant to infer abrogation in the absence of clear signals from Congress that such a result was, in fact, in- tended. At the least, I would presume the applicability of the Eleventh Amendment to interstate entities unless Con- gress clearly and expressly indicates otherwise. The Court ignores these abrogation cases, however, in favor of exactly the opposite presumption. By the Court's reckoning, the Eleventh Amendment is inapplicable unless we have "good reason" to believe that Congress affirmatively concurs in a finding of immunity. In other words, the base- line is no immunity, even if the State has structured the en- tity in the expectation that immunity will inhere. If, how- ever, Congress manifests a contrary intent, the Eleventh Amendment shields an interstate entity from suit in federal court. Congress, therefore, effectively may dictate the ap- plicability of the Eleventh Amendment in this context. The notion that Congress possesses this power, an extension of dictum in Lake Country, 440 U. S., at 401, has little basis in our precedents. Congress may indeed be able to confer on the States what in fact looks a lot like Eleventh Amendment immunity; but we have never held that Eleventh Amend- ment immunity itself attaches at the whim of Congress. The Court shores up its analysis by observing that each State lacks meaningful power to control an interstate entity. As an initial matter, one wonders how important this insight actually is to the Court's conclusion, given that the opinion elsewhere disclaims reliance on a control inquiry. Ante, at 47­48. In any event, that we may sometimes, or even often, in the application of arm-of-the-state analysis, find too atten- uated a basis for immunity does not mean we should presume such immunity altogether lacking in this context. Two sov- ereign States acting together may, in most situations, be as deserving of immunity as either State acting apart. I see no reason to vary the analysis for interstate and intrastate entities. 513us1$$5J 03-28-98 15:59:27 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 30 (1994) 59 O'Connor, J., dissenting II The Court wisely recognizes that the six-factor test set forth in Lake Country, supra, ostensibly a balancing scheme, provides meager guidance for lower courts when the factors point in different directions. Without any indication from this Court as to the weight to ascribe particular criteria, the Courts of Appeals have struggled, variously adding factors, see Puerto Rico Ports Authority v. M/V Manhattan Prince, 897 F. 2d 1, 9 (CA1 1990) (considering seven factors), dis- tilling factors, see Benning v. Board of Regents of Regency Universities, 928 F. 2d 775, 777 (CA7 1991) (considering four factors), and deeming certain factors dispositive, compare Brown v. East Central Health Dist., 752 F. 2d 615, 617­618 (CA11 1985) (finding state treasury factor determinative), with Tuveson v. Florida Governor's Council on Indian Af- fairs, Inc., 734 F. 2d 730, 732 (CA11 1984) (suggesting that state courts' characterization of entity is most important cri- terion). See generally Note, Clothing State Governmental Entities with Sovereign Immunity: Disarray in the Eleventh Amendment Arm-of-the-State Doctrine, 92 Colum. L. Rev. 1243 (1992) (summarizing diffuse responses). In light of this confusion, the Court's effort to focus the Lake Country analysis on a single overarching principle is admirable. But its conclusion that the vulnerability of the state treasury is determinative has support neither in our precedents nor in the literal terms of the Eleventh Amend- ment. The Court takes a sufficient condition for Eleventh Amendment immunity, and erroneously transforms it into a necessary condition. In so doing, the Court seriously re- duces the scope of the Eleventh Amendment, thus underpro- tecting the state sovereignty at which the Eleventh Amend- ment is principally directed. See Puerto Rico Aqueduct and Sewer Authority v. Metcalf & Eddy, Inc., 506 U. S. 139, 146 (1993) ("The Amendment is rooted in a recognition that the States, although a union, maintain certain attributes of sovereignty, including sovereign immunity"); Atascadero 513us1$$5J 03-28-98 15:59:27 PAGES OPINPGT 60 HESS v. PORT AUTHORITY TRANS-HUDSON CORPORATION O'Connor, J., dissenting State Hospital v. Scanlon, supra, at 238 ("[T]he significance of this Amendment `lies in its affirmation that the fundamen- tal principle of sovereign immunity limits the grant of judi- cial authority in Art. III' of the Constitution") (citation omitted). The Court's assertion that the driving concern of the Elev- enth Amendment is protection of state treasuries, see ante, at 48­49, is belied by the text of the Amendment itself. The Eleventh Amendment bars federal jurisdiction over "any suit in law or equity" against the States. As we recognized in Cory v. White, 457 U. S. 85, 91 (1982), the Eleventh Amendment "by its terms" clearly extends beyond actions seeking money damages. "It would be a novel proposition indeed that the Eleventh Amendment does not bar a suit to enjoin the State itself simply because no money judgment is sought." Id., at 90. While it may be clear that Chisholm v. Georgia, 2 Dall. 419 (1793), a money damages action, gave initial impetus to the effort to amend the Constitution, it is equally clear that the product of that effort, the Eleventh Amendment itself, extends far beyond the Chisholm facts. Recognizing this, we have long held that the Eleventh Amendment bars suits against States and state entities re- gardless of the nature of relief requested. See Puerto Rico Aqueduct and Sewer Authority v. Metcalf & Eddy, Inc., supra, at 145­146; Cory, supra, at 90­91; Alabama v. Pugh, 438 U. S. 781, 782 (1978). The Court is entirely right, however, to suggest that the Eleventh Amendment confers immunity over entities whose liabilities are funded by state taxpayer dollars. If a State were vulnerable at any time to retroactive damages awards in federal court, its ability to set its own agenda, to control its own internal machinery, and to plan for the future-all essential perquisites of sovereignty-would be grievously impaired. I have no quarrel at all with the many cases cited by the Court for the proposition that if an entity's bills will be footed by the State, the Eleventh Amendment clearly pre- 513us1$$5J 03-28-98 15:59:27 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 30 (1994) 61 O'Connor, J., dissenting cludes the exercise of federal jurisdiction. See, e. g., Hutsell v. Sayre, 5 F. 3d 996, 999 (CA6 1993) (liability of university tantamount to claim against state treasury); In re San Juan Dupont Plaza Hotel Fire Litigation, 888 F. 2d 940, 943­944 (CA1 1989) (70­75% of funds provided by taxpayer dollars). But the converse cannot also be true. The Eleventh Amendment does not turn a blind eye simply because the state treasury is not directly implicated. In my view, the proper question is whether the State possesses sufficient control over an entity performing governmental functions that the entity may properly be called an extension of the State itself. Such control can exist even where the State assumes no liability for the entity's debts. We have always respected state flexibility in setting up and maintaining agencies charged with furthering state objectives. See, e. g., Highland Farms Dairy, Inc. v. Agnew, 300 U. S. 608, 612 (1937) ("How power shall be distributed by a state among its governmental organs is commonly, if not always, a ques- tion for the state itself"). An emphasis on control, rather than impact on the state treasury, adequately protects state managerial prerogatives while retaining a crucial check against abuse. So long as a State's citizens may, if suffi- ciently aggravated, vote out an errant government, Eleventh Amendment immunity remains a highly beneficial provision of breathing space and vindication of state sovereignty. An arm of the State, to my mind, is an entity that under- takes state functions and is politically accountable to the State, and by extension, to the electorate. The critical in- quiry, then, should be whether and to what extent the elected state government exercises oversight over the entity. If the lines of oversight are clear and substantial-for exam- ple, if the State appoints and removes an entity's governing personnel and retains veto or approval power over an enti- ty's undertakings-then the entity should be deemed an arm of the State for Eleventh Amendment purposes. This test is sufficiently elastic to encompass the Court's treasury fac- 513us1$$5J 03-28-98 15:59:27 PAGES OPINPGT 62 HESS v. PORT AUTHORITY TRANS-HUDSON CORPORATION O'Connor, J., dissenting tor. It will be a rare case indeed where the state treasury foots the bill for an entity's wrongs but fails to exercise a healthy degree of oversight over that entity. But the con- trol test goes further than the Court's single factor in as- suring state governments the critical flexibility in internal governance that is essential to sovereign authority. See Note, 92 Colum. L. Rev., at 1246­1252 (describing structural innovations among state governments). The Court dismisses consideration of control altogether, ante, at 47­48, noting that States wield ultimate power over cities and counties, units that have never been accorded Eleventh Amendment immunity. See Lincoln County v. Luning, 133 U. S. 529, 530 (1890). This criticism, based on a supposed line-drawing problem, is off the mark. That "po- litical subdivisions exist solely at the whim and behest of their State," Port Authority Trans-Hudson Corp. v. Feeney, 495 U. S., at 313 (Brennan, J., concurring), does not mean that state governments actually exercise sufficient oversight to trigger Eleventh Amendment immunity under a control- centered formulation. The inquiry should turn on real, im- mediate control and oversight, rather than on the potential- ity of a State taking action to seize the reins. Virtually every enterprise, municipal or private, flourishes in some sense at the behest of the State. But we have never found the Eleventh Amendment's protections to hinge on this sort of abstraction. The control-centered formulation necessar- ily looks to the structure and function of state law. If the State delegates control and oversight of an entity to munici- palities under state law, the requisite state-level control is lacking, and the Eleventh Amendment does not shield the entity from suit in federal court. III Turning to the instant case, I believe that sufficient indicia of control exist to support a finding of immunity for the Port Authority, and hence, for the PATH.

See N. J. Stat. Ann. § 32:1­5 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 6405 (McKinney 1979). The Gover- nors of each State may veto the actions of that State's com- missioners. See N. J. Stat. Ann. § 32:1­17 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 6417 (McKinney 1979). The quorum re- quirements specify that "no action of the port authority shall be binding unless taken at a meeting at which at least three of the members from each state are present, and unless a majority of the members from each state present at such meeting but in any event at least three of the members from each state shall vote in favor thereof." N. J. Stat. Ann. § 32:1­17 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 6417 (McKinney 1979). Accordingly, each Governor's veto power is tanta- mount to a full veto power over the actions of the Commis- sion. The Port Authority must make annual reports to the state legislatures, which in turn must approve changes in the Port Authority's rules and any new projects. See N. J. Stat. Ann. § 32:1­8 (West 1990); N. Y. Unconsol. Law § 6408 (Mc- Kinney 1979). Each State, and by extension, each State's electorate, exercises ample authority over the Port Author- ity. Without setting forth a shopping list of considerations that govern the control inquiry, suffice it to say that in this case, the whole is exactly the sum of its parts. I would hold that the Eleventh Amendment shields the PATH and Port Authority from suits in federal court.

X-CITEMENT VIDEO, INC., et al. certiorari to the united states court of appeals for the ninth circuit No. 93­723. Argued October 5, 1994-Decided November 29, 1994 Respondents were convicted under the Protection of Children Against Sexual Exploitation Act of 1977, which prohibits "knowingly" transport- ing, shipping, receiving, distributing, or reproducing a visual depiction, 18 U. S. C. §§ 2252(a)(1) and (2), if such depiction "involves the use of a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct," §§ 2252(a)(1)(A) and (2)(A). In reversing, the Ninth Circuit held, inter alia, that § 2252 was facially unconstitutional under the First Amendment because it did not require a showing that the defendant knew that one of the performers was a minor. Held: Because the term "knowingly" in §§ 2252(1) and (2) modifies the phrase "the use of a minor" in subsections (1)(A) and (2)(A), the Act is properly read to include a scienter requirement for age of minority. This Court rejects the most natural grammatical reading, adopted by the Ninth Circuit, under which "knowingly" modifies only the relevant verbs in subsections (1) and (2), and does not extend to the elements of the minority of the performers, or the sexually explicit nature of the material, because they are set forth in independent clauses separated by interruptive punctuation. Some applications of that reading would sweep within the statute's ambit actors who had no idea that they were even dealing with sexually explicit material, an anomalous result that the Court will not assume Congress to have intended. Moreover, Morissette v. United States, 342 U. S. 246, 271, reinforced by Staples v. United States, 511 U. S. 600, 619, instructs that the standard presump- tion in favor of a scienter requirement should apply to each of the statu- tory elements that criminalize otherwise innocent conduct, and the mi- nority status of the performers is the crucial element separating legal innocence from wrongful conduct under § 2252. The legislative history, although unclear as to whether Congress intended "knowingly" to ex- tend to performer age, persuasively indicates that the word applies to the sexually explicit conduct depicted, and thereby demonstrates that "knowingly" is emancipated from merely modifying the verbs in subsec- tions (1) and (2). As a matter of grammar, it is difficult to conclude that the word modifies one of the elements in subsections (1)(A) and (2)(A), but not the other.

The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reversed the conviction of respondents for violation of this Act. It held that the Act did not require that the defendant know that one of the performers was a minor, and that it was therefore facially unconstitutional. We conclude that the Act is properly read to include such a requirement. Rubin Gottesman owned and operated X-Citement Video, Inc. Undercover police posed as pornography retailers and targeted X-Citement Video for investigation. During the course of the sting operation, the media exposed Traci Lords for her roles in pornographic films while under the age of 18. Police Officer Steven Takeshita expressed an interest in obtaining Traci Lords tapes. Gottesman complied, selling Takeshita 49 videotapes featuring Lords before her 18th birthday. Two months later, Gottesman shipped eight tapes of the underage Traci Lords to Takeshita in Hawaii. These two transactions formed the basis for a federal in- dictment under the child pornography statute. The indict- ment charged respondents with one count each of violating 18 U. S.

The Ninth Circuit remanded to the District Court for reconsideration in light of United States v. Thomas, 893 F. 2d 1066 (CA9), cert. denied, 498 U. S. 826 (1990). In that case, the Ninth Circuit had held § 2252 did not contain a scienter require- ment, but had not reached the constitutional questions. On remand, the District Court refused to set aside the judgment of conviction. On appeal for the second time, Gottesman reiterated his constitutional arguments. This time, the court reached the merits of his claims and, by a divided vote, found § 2252 fa- cially unconstitutional. The court first held that 18 U. S. C. § 2256 met constitutional standards in setting the age of majority at age 18, substituting lascivious for lewd, and prohibiting actual or simulated bestiality and sadistic or masochistic abuse. 982 F. 2d 1285, 1288­1289 (CA9 1992). It then discussed § 2252, noting it was bound by its conclusion in Thomas to construe the Act as lacking a scienter require- ment for the age of minority. The court concluded that case law from this Court required that the defendant must have knowledge at least of the nature and character of the ma- terials. 982 F. 2d, at 1290, citing Smith v. California, 361 U. S. 147 (1959); New York v. Ferber, 458 U. S. 747 (1982); and Hamling v. United States, 418 U. S. 87 (1974). The court extended these cases to hold that the First Amendment re- quires that the defendant possess knowledge of the par- ticular fact that one performer had not reached the age of majority at the time the visual depiction was produced. 982 F. 2d, at 1291. Because the court found the statute did not require such a showing, it reversed respondents' convictions. We granted certiorari, 510 U. S. 1163 (1994), and now reverse. Title 18 U. S. C. § 2252 (1988 ed. and Supp. V) provides, in relevant part: 513us1$$6H 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT 68 UNITED STATES v. X-CITEMENT VIDEO, INC. Opinion of the Court "(a) Any person who- "(1) knowingly transports or ships in interstate or foreign commerce by any means including by computer or mails, any visual depiction, if- "(A) the producing of such visual depiction involves the use of a minor engaging in sexually explicit con- duct; and "(B) such visual depiction is of such conduct; "(2) knowingly receives, or distributes, any visual de- piction that has been mailed, or has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce, or which contains materials which have been mailed or so shipped or transported, by any means including by computer, or knowingly reproduces any visual depiction for distribu- tion in interstate or foreign commerce or through the mails, if- "(A) the producing of such visual depiction involves the use of a minor engaging in sexually explicit con- duct; and "(B) such visual depiction is of such conduct; . . . . . "shall be punished as provided in subsection (b) of this section." The critical determination which we must make is whether the term "knowingly" in subsections (1) and (2) modifies the phrase "the use of a minor" in subsections (1)(A) and (2)(A). The most natural grammatical reading, adopted by the Ninth Circuit, suggests that the term "knowingly" modifies only the surrounding verbs: transports, ships, receives, distrib- utes, or reproduces. Under this construction, the word "knowingly" would not modify the elements of the minority of the performers, or the sexually explicit nature of the ma- terial, because they are set forth in independent clauses sep- arated by interruptive punctuation. But we do not think this is the end of the matter, both because of anomalies which 513us1$$6H 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

If the term "knowingly" applies only to the relevant verbs in § 2252-transporting, shipping, receiving, distributing, and reproducing-we would have to conclude that Congress wished to distinguish between someone who knowingly transported a particular package of film whose contents were unknown to him, and someone who unknowingly transported that package. It would seem odd, to say the least, that Con- gress distinguished between someone who inadvertently dropped an item into the mail without realizing it, and some- one who consciously placed the same item in the mail, but was nonetheless unconcerned about whether the person had any knowledge of the prohibited contents of the package. Some applications of respondents' position would produce results that were not merely odd, but positively absurd. If we were to conclude that "knowingly" only modifies the rele- vant verbs in § 2252, we would sweep within the ambit of the statute actors who had no idea that they were even dealing with sexually explicit material. For instance, a retail drug- gist who returns an uninspected roll of developed film to a customer "knowingly distributes" a visual depiction and would be criminally liable if it were later discovered that the visual depiction contained images of children engaged in sexually explicit conduct. Or, a new resident of an apart- ment might receive mail for the prior resident and store the mail unopened. If the prior tenant had requested delivery of materials covered by § 2252, his residential successor could be prosecuted for "knowing receipt" of such materials. Sim- ilarly, a Federal Express courier who delivers a box in which the shipper has declared the contents to be "film" "know- ingly transports" such film. We do not assume that Con- gress, in passing laws, intended such results. Public Citi- 513us1$$6H 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT 70 UNITED STATES v. X-CITEMENT VIDEO, INC. Opinion of the Court zen v. Department of Justice, 491 U. S. 440, 453­455 (1989); United States v. Turkette, 452 U. S. 576, 580 (1981). Our reluctance to simply follow the most grammatical reading of the statute is heightened by our cases interpreting criminal statutes to include broadly applicable scienter re- quirements, even where the statute by its terms does not contain them. The landmark opinion in Morissette v. United States, 342 U. S. 246 (1952), discussed the common- law history of mens rea as applied to the elements of the federal embezzlement statute. That statute read: "Whoever embezzles, steals, purloins, or knowingly converts to his use or the use of another, or without authority, sells, conveys or disposes of any record, voucher, money, or thing of value of the United States . . . [s]hall be fined." 18 U. S. C. § 641, cited in Morissette, 342 U. S., at 248, n. 2. Perhaps even more obviously than in the statute presently before us, the word "knowingly" in its isolated position suggested that it only attached to the verb "converts," and required only that the defendant intentionally assume dominion over the prop- erty. But the Court used the background presumption of evil intent to conclude that the term "knowingly" also re- quired that the defendant have knowledge of the facts that made the taking a conversion-i. e., that the property be- longed to the United States. Id., at 271. See also United States v. United States Gypsum Co., 438 U. S. 422, 438 (1978) ("[F]ar more than the simple omission of the appropriate phrase from the statutory definition is necessary to justify dispensing with an intent requirement"). Liparota v. United States, 471 U. S. 419 (1985), posed a challenge to a federal statute prohibiting certain actions with respect to food stamps. The statute's use of "know- ingly" could be read only to modify "uses, transfers, acquires, alters, or possesses" or it could be read also to modify "in any manner not authorized by [the statute]." Noting that neither interpretation posed constitutional problems, id., at 424, n. 6, the Court held the scienter requirement applied to 513us1$$6H 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 64 (1994) 71 Opinion of the Court both elements by invoking the background principle set forth in Morissette. In addition, the Court was concerned with the broader reading which would "criminalize a broad range of apparently innocent conduct." 471 U. S., at 426. Impos- ing criminal liability on an unwitting food stamp recipient who purchased groceries at a store that inflated its prices to such purchasers struck the Court as beyond the intended reach of the statute. The same analysis drove the recent conclusion in Staples v. United States, 511 U. S. 600 (1994), that to be criminally liable a defendant must know that his weapon possessed au- tomatic firing capability so as to make it a machinegun as defined by the National Firearms Act. Congress had not expressly imposed any mens rea requirement in the provi- sion criminalizing the possession of a firearm in the absence of proper registration. 26 U. S. C. § 5861(d). The Court first rejected the argument that the statute described a pub- lic welfare offense, traditionally excepted from the back- ground principle favoring scienter. Morissette, supra, at 255. The Court then expressed concern with a statutory reading that would criminalize behavior that a defendant be- lieved fell within "a long tradition of widespread lawful gun ownership by private individuals." Staples, 511 U. S., at 610. The Court also emphasized the harsh penalties attach- ing to violations of the statute as a "significant consideration in determining whether the statute should be construed as dispensing with mens rea." Id., at 616. Applying these principles, we think the Ninth Circuit's plain language reading of § 2252 is not so plain. First, § 2252 is not a public welfare offense. Persons do not harbor set- tled expectations that the contents of magazines and film are generally subject to stringent public regulation. In fact, First Amendment constraints presuppose the opposite view. Rather, the statute is more akin to the common-law offenses against the "state, the person, property, or public morals," Morissette, supra, at 255, that presume a scienter require- 513us1$$6H 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT 72 UNITED STATES v. X-CITEMENT VIDEO, INC. Opinion of the Court ment in the absence of express contrary intent.2 Second, Staples' concern with harsh penalties looms equally large re- specting § 2252: Violations are punishable by up to 10 years in prison as well as substantial fines and forfeiture. 18 U. S. C. §§ 2252(b), 2253, 2254. See also Morissette, supra, at 260. Morissette, reinforced by Staples, instructs that the pre- sumption in favor of a scienter requirement should apply to each of the statutory elements that criminalize otherwise in- nocent conduct. Staples held that the features of a gun as technically described by the firearm registration Act was such an element. Its holding rested upon "the nature of the particular device or substance Congress has subjected to regulation and the expectations that individuals may legiti- mately have in dealing with the regulated items." Staples, supra, at 619. Age of minority in § 2252 indisputably pos- sesses the same status as an elemental fact because nonob- scene, sexually explicit materials involving persons over the age of 17 are protected by the First Amendment. Alexan- der v. United States, 509 U. S. 544, 549­550 (1993); Sable Communications of Cal., Inc. v. FCC, 492 U. S. 115, 126 (1989); FW/PBS, Inc. v. Dallas, 493 U. S. 215, 224 (1990); Smith v. California, 361 U. S., at 152.3 In the light of these 2 Morissette's treatment of the common-law presumption of mens rea recognized that the presumption expressly excepted "sex offenses, such as rape, in which the victim's actual age was determinative despite defend- ant's reasonable belief that the girl had reached age of consent." 342 U. S., at 251, n. 8. But as in the criminalization of pornography produc- tion at 18 U. S. C. § 2251, see infra, at 76, n. 5, the perpetrator confronts the underage victim personally and may reasonably be required to ascer- tain that victim's age. The opportunity for reasonable mistake as to age increases significantly once the victim is reduced to a visual depiction, unavailable for questioning by the distributor or receiver. Thus we do not think the common-law treatment of sex offenses militates against our construction of the present statute. 3 In this regard, age of minority is not a "jurisdictional fact" that en- hances an offense otherwise committed with an evil intent. See, e. g., United States v. Feola, 420 U. S. 671 (1975). There, the Court did not 513us1$$6H 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 64 (1994) 73 Opinion of the Court decisions, one would reasonably expect to be free from regu- lation when trafficking in sexually explicit, though not ob- scene, materials involving adults. Therefore, the age of the performers is the crucial element separating legal innocence from wrongful conduct. The legislative history of the statute evolved over a period of years, and perhaps for that reason speaks somewhat indis- tinctly to the question whether "knowingly" in the statute modifies the elements of subsections (1)(A) and (2)(A)-that the visual depiction involves the use of a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct-or merely the verbs "transport or ship" in subsection (1) and "receive or distribute . . . [or] reproduce" in subsection (2). In 1959, we held in Smith v. California, supra, that a California statute that dispensed with any mens rea requirement as to the contents of an ob- scene book would violate the First Amendment. Id., at 154. When Congress began dealing with child pornography in 1977, the content of the legislative debates suggest that it was aware of this decision. See, e. g., 123 Cong. Rec. 30935 (1977) ("It is intended that they have knowledge of the type of material . . . proscribed by this bill. The legislative his- tory should be clear on that so as to remove any chance it will lead into constitutional problems"). Even if that were not the case, we do not impute to Congress an intent to pass legislation that is inconsistent with the Constitution as con- strued by this Court. Yates v. United States, 354 U. S. 298, 319 (1957) ("In [construing the statute] we should not assume that Congress chose to disregard a constitutional danger zone so clearly marked"). When first passed, § 2252 pun- require knowledge of "jurisdictional facts"-that the target of an assault was a federal officer. Criminal intent serves to separate those who under- stand the wrongful nature of their act from those who do not, but does not require knowledge of the precise consequences that may flow from that act once aware that the act is wrongful. Id., at 685. Cf. Hamling v. United States, 418 U. S. 87, 120 (1974) (knowledge that the materials at issue are legally obscene not required). 513us1$$6H 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT 74 UNITED STATES v. X-CITEMENT VIDEO, INC. Opinion of the Court ished one who "knowingly transports or ships in interstate or foreign commerce or mails, for the purpose of sale or dis- tribution for sale, any obscene visual or print medium" if it involved the use of a minor engaged in sexually explicit con- duct. Pub. L. 95­225, 92 Stat. 7 (emphasis added). Assum- ing awareness of Smith, at a minimum, "knowingly" was in- tended to modify "obscene" in the 1978 version. In 1984, Congress amended the statute to its current form, broadening its application to those sexually explicit materi- als that, while not obscene as defined by Miller v. Califor- nia, 413 U. S. 15 (1973),4 could be restricted without violating the First Amendment as explained by New York v. Ferber, 458 U. S. 747 (1982). When Congress eliminated the adjec- tive "obscene," all of the elements defining the character and content of the materials at issue were relegated to subsec- tions (1)(a) and (2)(a). In this effort to expand the child por- nography statute to its full constitutional limits, Congress nowhere expressed an intent to eliminate the mens rea re- quirement that had previously attached to the character and content of the material through the word obscene. The Committee Reports and legislative debate speak more opaquely as to the desire of Congress for a scienter require- ment with respect to the age of minority. An early form of the proposed legislation, S. 2011, was rejected principally because it failed to distinguish between obscene and non- obscene materials. S. Rep. No. 95­438, p. 12 (1977). In evaluating the proposal, the Justice Department offered its thoughts: "[T]he word `knowingly' in the second line of section 2251 is unnecessary and should be stricken. . . . Unless `knowingly' is deleted here, the bill might be subject to an interpretation requiring the Government to prove 4 The Miller test for obscenity asks whether the work, taken as a whole, "appeals to the prurient interest," "depicts or describes [sexual conduct] in a patently offensive way," and "lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value." Miller, 413 U. S., at 24. 513us1$$6H 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 64 (1994) 75 Opinion of the Court the defendant's knowledge of everything that follows `knowingly', including the age of the child. We assume that it is not the intention of the drafters to require the Government to prove that the defendant knew the child was under age sixteen but merely to prove that the child was, in fact, less than age sixteen. . . . "On the other hand, the use of the word `knowingly' in subsection 2252(a)(1) is appropriate to make it clear that the bill does not apply to common carriers or other innocent transporters who have no knowledge of the na- ture or character of the material they are transporting. To clarify the situation, the legislative history might re- flect that the defendant's knowledge of the age of the child is not an element of the offense but that the bill is not intended to apply to innocent transportation with no knowledge of the nature or character of the material involved." Id., at 28­29. Respondents point to this language as an unambiguous reve- lation that Congress omitted a scienter requirement. But the bill eventually reported by the Senate Judiciary Commit- tee adopted some, but not all, of the Department's sugges- tions; most notably, it restricted the prohibition in § 2251 to obscene materials. Id., at 2. The Committee did not make any clarification with respect to scienter as to the age of minority. In fact, the version reported by the Committee eliminated § 2252 altogether. Ibid. At that juncture, Sena- tor Roth introduced an amendment which would be another precursor of § 2252. In one paragraph, the amendment for- bade any person to "knowingly transport [or] ship . . . [any] visual medium depicting a minor engaged in sexually explicit conduct." 123 Cong. Rec. 33047 (1977). In an exchange during debate, Senator Percy inquired: "Would this not mean that the distributor or seller must have either, first, actual knowledge that the materials do contain child pornographic depictions or, second, cir- 513us1$$6H 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT 76 UNITED STATES v. X-CITEMENT VIDEO, INC. Opinion of the Court cumstances must be such that he should have had such actual knowledge, and that mere inadvertence or negli- gence would not alone be enough to render his actions unlawful?" Id., at 33050. Senator Roth replied: "That is absolutely correct. This amendment, limited as it is by the phrase `knowingly,' insures that only those sellers and distributors who are consciously and deliber- ately engaged in the marketing of child pornography . . . are subject to prosecution . . . ." Ibid. The parallel House bill did not contain a comparable provi- sion to § 2252 of the Senate bill, and limited § 2251 prosecu- tions to obscene materials. The Conference Committee adopted the substance of the Roth amendment in large part, but followed the House version by restricting the proscribed depictions to obscene ones. The new bill did restructure the § 2252 provision somewhat, setting off the age of minority requirement in a separate subclause. S. Conf. Rep. No. 95­ 601, p. 2 (1977). Most importantly, the new bill retained the adverb "knowingly" in § 2252 while simultaneously deleting the word "knowingly" from § 2251(a). The Conference Com- mittee explained the deletion in § 2251(a) as reflecting an "in- tent that it is not a necessary element of a prosecution that the defendant knew the actual age of the child." Id., at 5.5 Respondents point to the appearance of "knowingly" in 5 The difference in congressional intent with respect to § 2251 versus § 2252 reflects the reality that producers are more conveniently able to ascertain the age of performers. It thus makes sense to impose the risk of error on producers. United States v. United States District Court for Central District of California, 858 F. 2d 534, 543, n. 6 (CA9 1988). Al- though producers may be convicted under § 2251(a) without proof they had knowledge of age, Congress has independently required both primary and secondary producers to record the ages of performers with independent penalties for failure to comply. 18 U. S. C. §§ 2257(a) and (i) (1988 ed. and Supp. V); American Library Assn. v. Reno, 33 F. 3d 78 (CADC 1994). 513us1$$6H 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 64 (1994) 77 Opinion of the Court § 2251(c) and argue that § 2252 ought to be read like § 2251. But this argument depends on the conclusion that § 2252(c) does not include a knowing requirement, a premise that re- spondents fail to support. Respondents offer in support of their premise only the legislative history discussing an intent to exclude a scienter requirement from § 2251(a). Because §§ 2251(a) and 2251(c) were passed at different times and con- tain different wording, the intent to exclude scienter from § 2251(a) does not imply an intent to exclude scienter from § 2251(c).6 The legislative history can be summarized by saying that it persuasively indicates that Congress intended that the term "knowingly" apply to the requirement that the depic- tion be of sexually explicit conduct; it is a good deal less clear from the Committee Reports and floor debates that Congress intended that the requirement extend also to the age of the performers. But, turning once again to the statute itself, if the term "knowingly" applies to the sexually explicit conduct depicted, it is emancipated from merely modifying the verbs in subsections (1) and (2). And as a matter of grammar it is 6 Congress amended § 2251 to insert subsection (c) in 1986. Pub. L. 99­ 628, 100 Stat. 3510. That provision created new offenses relating to the advertising of the availability of child pornography or soliciting children to participate in such depictions. The legislative history of § 2251(c) does address the scienter requirement: "The government must prove that the defendant knew the character of the visual depictions as depicting a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct, but need not prove that the defend- ant actually knew the person depicted was in fact under 18 years of age or that the depictions violated Federal law." H. R. Rep. No. 99­910, p. 6 (1986). It may be argued that since the House Committee Report rejects any requirement of scienter as to the age of minority for § 2251(c), the House Committee thought that there was no such requirement in § 2252. But the views of one Congress as to the meaning of an Act passed by an earlier Congress are not ordinarily of great weight, United States v. Clark, 445 U. S. 23, 33, n. 9 (1980), citing United States v. Southwestern Cable Co., 392 U. S. 157, 170 (1968), and the views of the committee of one House of another Congress are of even less weight, Pierce v. Underwood, 487 U. S. 552, 566 (1988). 513us1$$6H 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT 78 UNITED STATES v. X-CITEMENT VIDEO, INC. Opinion of the Court difficult to conclude that the word "knowingly" modifies one of the elements in subsections (1)(A) and (2)(A), but not the other. A final canon of statutory construction supports the read- ing that the term "knowingly" applies to both elements. Cases such as Ferber, 458 U. S., at 765 ("As with obscenity laws, criminal responsibility may not be imposed without some element of scienter on the part of the defendant"); Smith v. California, 361 U. S. 147 (1959); Hamling v. United States, 418 U. S. 87 (1974); and Osborne v. Ohio, 495 U. S. 103, 115 (1990), suggest that a statute completely bereft of a scienter requirement as to the age of the performers would raise serious constitutional doubts. It is therefore incum- bent upon us to read the statute to eliminate those doubts so long as such a reading is not plainly contrary to the intent of Congress. Edward J. DeBartolo Corp. v. Florida Gulf Coast Building & Constr. Trades Council, 485 U. S. 568, 575 (1988). For all of the foregoing reasons, we conclude that the term "knowingly" in § 2252 extends both to the sexually explicit nature of the material and to the age of the performers. As an alternative grounds for upholding the reversal of their convictions, respondents reiterate their constitutional challenge to 18 U. S. C. § 2256. These claims were not en- compassed in the question on which this Court granted cer- tiorari, but a prevailing party, without cross-petitioning, is "entitled under our precedents to urge any grounds which would lend support to the judgment below." Dayton Bd. of Ed. v. Brinkman, 433 U. S. 406, 419 (1977). Respondents argue that § 2256 is unconstitutionally vague and overbroad because it makes the age of majority 18, rather than 16 as did the New York statute upheld in New York v. Ferber, supra, and because Congress replaced the term "lewd" with the term "lascivious" in defining illegal exhibition of the gen- itals of children. We regard these claims as insubstantial, 513us1$$6H 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 64 (1994) 79 Stevens, J., concurring and reject them for the reasons stated by the Court of Appeals in its opinion in this case. Respondents also argued below that their indictment was fatally defective because it did not contain a scienter require- ment on the age of minority. The Court of Appeals did not reach this issue because of its determination that § 2252 was unconstitutional on its face, and we decline to decide it here. The judgment of the Court of Appeals is Reversed. Justice Stevens, concurring. In my opinion, the normal, commonsense reading of a subsection of a criminal statute introduced by the word "knowingly" is to treat that adverb as modifying each of the elements of the offense identified in the remainder of the subsection. Title 18 U. S. C. § 2252(a)(1) (1988 ed. and Supp. V) reads as follows: "(a) Any person who- "(1) knowingly transports or ships in interstate or foreign commerce by any means including by computer or mails, any visual depiction, if- "(A) the producing of such visual depiction involves the use of a minor engaging in sexually explicit con- duct; and "(B) such visual depiction is of such conduct." (Em- phasis added.) Surely reading this provision to require proof of scienter for each fact that must be proved is far more reasonable than adding such a requirement to a statutory offense that con- tains no scienter requirement whatsoever. Cf. Staples v. United States, 511 U. S. 600, 624 (1994) (Stevens, J., dissent- ing).

X-CITEMENT VIDEO, INC. Scalia, J., dissenting shipped in interstate commerce, would be ridiculous. Ac- cordingly, I join the Court's opinion without qualification. Justice Scalia, with whom Justice Thomas joins, dissenting. Today's opinion is without antecedent. None of the deci- sions cited as authority support interpreting an explicit stat- utory scienter requirement in a manner that its language simply will not bear. Staples v. United States, 511 U. S. 600 (1994), discussed ante, at 71, and United States v. United States Gypsum Co., 438 U. S. 422 (1978), discussed ante, at 70, applied the background common-law rule of scienter to a statute that said nothing about the matter. Morissette v. United States, 342 U. S. 246 (1952), discussed ante, at 70, applied that same background rule to a statute that did con- tain the word "knowingly," in order to conclude that "know- ingly converts" requires knowledge not merely of the fact of one's assertion of dominion over property, but also knowl- edge of the fact that that assertion is a conversion, i. e., is wrongful.* Liparota v. United States, 471 U. S. 419 (1985), discussed ante, at 70, again involved a statute that did con- tain the word " `knowingly,' " used in such a fashion that it could reasonably and grammatically be thought to apply (1) only to the phrase " `uses, transfers, acquires, alters, or pos- sesses' " (which would cause a defendant to be liable without wrongful intent), or (2) also to the later phrase " `in any man- ner not authorized by [the statute].' " Once again applying the background rule of scienter, the latter reasonable and permissible reading was preferred. There is no way in which any of these cases, or all of them in combination, can be read to stand for the sweeping propo- *The case did not involve, as the Court claims, a situation in which, "even more obviously than in the statute presently before us, the word `knowingly' in its isolated position suggested that it only attached to the verb `converts,' " ante, at 70, and we nonetheless applied it as well to an- other word. The issue was simply the meaning of "knowingly converts." 513us1$$6K 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 64 (1994) 81 Scalia, J., dissenting sition that "the presumption in favor of a scienter require- ment should apply to each of the statutory elements that criminalize otherwise innocent conduct," ante, at 72, even when the plain text of the statute says otherwise. All those earlier cases employ the presumption as a rule of interpreta- tion which applies when Congress has not addressed the question of criminal intent (Staples and Gypsum), or when the import of what it has said on that subject is ambiguous (Morissette and Liparota). Today's opinion converts the rule of interpretation into a rule of law, contradicting the plain import of what Congress has specifically prescribed regarding criminal intent. In United States v. Thomas, 893 F. 2d 1066, 1070 (CA9), cert. denied, 498 U. S. 826 (1990), the Ninth Circuit inter- preted 18 U. S. C. § 2252 to require knowledge of neither the fact that the visual depiction portrays sexually explicit con- duct, nor the fact that a participant in that conduct was a minor. The panel in the present case accepted that inter- pretation. See 982 F. 2d 1285, 1289 (CA9 1992). To say, as the Court does, that this interpretation is "the most gram- matical reading," ante, at 70, or "[t]he most natural grammat- ical reading," ante, at 68, is understatement to the point of distortion-rather like saying that the ordinarily preferred total for two plus two is four. The Ninth Circuit's interpre- tation is in fact and quite obviously the only grammatical reading. If one were to rack his brains for a way to express the thought that the knowledge requirement in subsection (a)(1) applied only to the transportation or shipment of vis- ual depiction in interstate or foreign commerce, and not to the fact that that depiction was produced by use of a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct, and was a depiction of that conduct, it would be impossible to construct a sentence structure that more clearly conveys that thought, and that thought alone. The word "knowingly" is contained, not merely in a distant phrase, but in an entirely separate clause from the one into which today's opinion inserts it. The 513us1$$6K 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT 82 UNITED STATES v. X-CITEMENT VIDEO, INC. Scalia, J., dissenting equivalent, in expressing a simpler thought, would be the following: "Anyone who knowingly double-parks will be sub- ject to a $200 fine if that conduct occurs during the 4:30- to-6:30 rush hour." It could not be clearer that the scienter requirement applies only to the double-parking, and not to the time of day. So also here, it could not be clearer that it applies only to the transportation or shipment of visual depiction in interstate or foreign commerce. There is no doubt. There is no ambiguity. There is no possible "less natural" but nonetheless permissible reading. I have been willing, in the case of civil statutes, to ac- knowledge a doctrine of "scrivener's error" that permits a court to give an unusual (though not unheard-of) meaning to a word which, if given its normal meaning, would produce an absurd and arguably unconstitutional result. See Green v. Bock Laundry Machine Co., 490 U. S. 504, 527 (1989) (Scalia, J., concurring). Even if I were willing to stretch that doctrine so as to give the problematic text a meaning it cannot possibly bear; and even if I were willing to extend the doctrine to criminal cases in which its application would produce conviction rather than acquittal; it would still have no proper bearing here. For the sine qua non of any "scriv- ener's error" doctrine, it seems to me, is that the meaning genuinely intended but inadequately expressed must be ab- solutely clear; otherwise we might be rewriting the statute rather than correcting a technical mistake. That condition is not met here. The Court acknowledges that "it is a good deal less clear from the Committee Reports and floor debates that Congress intended that the requirement [of scienter] extend . . . to the age of the performers." Ante, at 77. That is surely so. In fact, it seems to me that the dominant (if not entirely uncon- tradicted) view expressed in the legislative history is that set forth in the statement of the Carter Administration Jus- tice Department which introduced the original bill: "[T]he defendant's knowledge of the age of the child is not an ele- 513us1$$6K 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 64 (1994) 83 Scalia, J., dissenting ment of the offense but . . . the bill is not intended to apply to innocent transportation with no knowledge of the nature or character of the material involved." S. Rep. No. 95­438, p. 29 (1977). As applied to the final bill, this would mean that the scienter requirement applies to the element of the crime that the depiction be of "sexually explicit conduct," but not to the element that the depiction "involv[e] the use of a minor engaging" in such conduct. See 18 U. S. C. §§ 2252(a)(1)(A) and (a)(2)(A). This is the interpretation that was argued by the United States before the Ninth Circuit. See 982 F. 2d, at 1289. The Court rejects this construction of the statute for two reasons: First, because "as a matter of grammar it is difficult to conclude that the word `knowingly' modifies one of the elements in subsections (1)(A) and (2)(A), but not the other." Ante, at 77­78. But as I have described, "as a matter of grammar" it is also difficult (nay, impossible) to conclude that the word "knowingly" modifies both of those elements. It is really quite extraordinary for the Court, fresh from having, as it says, ibid., "emancipated" the adverb from the gram- matical restriction that renders it inapplicable to the entire conditional clause, suddenly to insist that the demands of syntax must prevail over legislative intent-thus producing an end result that accords neither with syntax nor with sup- posed intent. If what the statute says must be ignored, one would think we might settle at least for what the statute was meant to say; but alas, we are told, what the statute says prevents this. The Court's second reason is even worse: "[A] statute com- pletely bereft of a scienter requirement as to the age of the performers would raise serious constitutional doubts." Ante, at 78. In my view (as in the apparent view of the Government before the Court of Appeals) that is not true. The Court derives its "serious constitutional doubts" from the fact that "sexually explicit materials involving persons over the age of 17 are protected by the First Amendment," 513us1$$6K 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT 84 UNITED STATES v. X-CITEMENT VIDEO, INC. Scalia, J., dissenting ante, at 72. We have made it entirely clear, however, that the First Amendment protection accorded to such materials is not as extensive as that accorded to other speech. "[T]here is surely a less vital interest in the uninhibited exhi- bition of material that is on the borderline between pornog- raphy and artistic expression than in the free dissemination of ideas of social and political significance . . . ." Young v. American Mini Theatres, Inc., 427 U. S. 50, 61 (1976). See also id., at 70­71 ("[E]ven though we recognize that the First Amendment will not tolerate the total suppression of erotic materials that have some arguably artistic value, it is mani- fest that society's interest in protecting this type of expres- sion is of a wholly different, and lesser, magnitude than the interest in untrammeled political debate . . .") (opinion of Stevens, J., joined by Burger, C. J., and White and Rehn- quist, JJ.). Cf. FCC v. Pacifica Foundation, 438 U. S. 726, 743 (1978) (While some broadcasts of patently offensive ref- erences to excretory and sexual organs and activities may be protected, "they surely lie at the periphery of First Amend- ment concern"). Let us be clear about what sort of pictures are at issue here. They are not the sort that will likely be found in a catalog of the National Gallery or the Metropoli- tan Museum of Art. " `[S]exually explicit conduct,' " as de- fined in the statute, does not include mere nudity, but only conduct that consists of "sexual intercourse . . . between per- sons of the same or opposite sex," "bestiality," "masturba- tion," "sadistic or masochistic abuse," and "lascivious exhibi- tion of the genitals or pubic area." See 18 U. S. C. § 2256(2). What is involved, in other words, is not the clinical, the artis- tic, nor even the risque´, but hard-core pornography. Indeed, I think it entirely clear that all of what is involved consti- tutes not merely pornography but fully proscribable obscen- ity, except to the extent it is joined with some other material (or perhaps some manner of presentation) that has artistic or other social value. See Miller v. California, 413 U. S. 15, 24 (1973). (Such a requirement cannot be imposed, of 513us1$$6K 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 64 (1994) 85 Scalia, J., dissenting course, upon fully protected speech: one can shout "Down with the Republic!," "Hooray for Mozart!," or even "Twenty-Three Skidoo!," whether or not that expression is joined with something else of social value.) And whereas what is on one side of the balance in the present case is this material of minimal First Amendment concern, the Court has described what is on the other side-"prevention of sex- ual exploitation and abuse of children"-as "a government objective of surpassing importance." New York v. Ferber, 458 U. S. 747, 757 (1982). I am not concerned that holding the purveyors and receiv- ers of this material absolutely liable for supporting the ex- ploitation of minors will deter any activity the United States Constitution was designed to protect. But I am concerned that the Court's suggestion of the unconstitutionality of such absolute liability will cause Congress to leave the world's children inadequately protected against the depredations of the pornography trade. As we recognized in Ferber, supra, at 766, n. 19, the producers of these materials are not always readily found, and are often located abroad; and knowledge of the performers' age by the dealers who specialize in child pornography, and by the purchasers who sustain that mar- ket, is obviously hard to prove. The First Amendment will lose none of its value to a free society if those who knowingly place themselves in the stream of pornographic commerce are obliged to make sure that they are not subsidizing child abuse. It is no more unconstitutional to make persons who knowingly deal in hard-core pornography criminally liable for the underage character of their entertainers than it is to make men who engage in consensual fornication criminally liable (in statutory rape) for the underage character of their partners. I would dispose of the present case, as the Ninth Circuit did, by reading the statute as it is written: to provide crimi- nal penalties for the knowing transportation or shipment of a visual depiction in interstate or foreign commerce, and for 513us1$$6K 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT 86 UNITED STATES v. X-CITEMENT VIDEO, INC. Scalia, J., dissenting the knowing receipt or distribution of a visual depiction so transported or shipped, if that depiction was (whether the defendant knew it or not) a portrayal of a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct. I would find the statute, as so interpreted, to be unconstitutional since, by imposing crimi- nal liability upon those not knowingly dealing in pornogra- phy, it establishes a severe deterrent, not narrowly tailored to its purposes, upon fully protected First Amendment activ- ities. See Smith v. California, 361 U. S. 147, 153­154 (1959). This conclusion of unconstitutionality is of course no ground for going back to reinterpret the statute, making it say some- thing that it does not say, but that is constitutional. Not every construction, but only " `every reasonable construction must be resorted to, in order to save a statute from unconsti- tutionality.' " Edward J. DeBartolo Corp. v. Florida Gulf Coast Building & Constr. Trades Council, 485 U. S. 568, 575 (1988) (quoting Hooper v. California, 155 U. S. 648, 657 (1895)) (emphasis added). " ` "Although this Court will often strain to construe legislation so as to save it against constitu- tional attack, it must not and will not carry this to the point of perverting the purpose of a statute . . ." or judicially re- writing it.' " Commodity Futures Trading Comm'n v. Schor, 478 U. S. 833, 841 (1986) (quoting Aptheker v. Secre- tary of State, 378 U. S. 500, 515 (1964)). Otherwise, there would be no such thing as an unconstitutional statute. As I have earlier discussed, in the present case no reasonable alternative construction exists, neither any that can be coaxed from the text nor any that can be substituted for the text on "scrivener's error" grounds. I therefore agree with the Ninth Circuit that respondents' conviction cannot stand. I could understand (though I would not approve of) a dis- position which, in order to uphold this statute, departed from its text as little as possible in order to sustain its constitu- tionality-i. e., a disposition applying the scienter require- ment to the pornographic nature of the materials, but not to the age of the performers. I can neither understand nor 513us1$$6K 03-28-98 14:53:05 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 64 (1994) 87 Scalia, J., dissenting approve of the disposition urged by the United States before this Court and adopted today, which not only rewrites the statute, but (1) rewrites it more radically than its constitu- tional survival demands, and (2) raises baseless constitu- tional doubts that will impede congressional enactment of a law providing greater protection for the child-victims of the pornography industry. The Court today saves a single conviction by putting in place a relatively toothless child- pornography law that Congress did not enact, and by render- ing congressional strengthening of that new law more diffi- cult.

NRA POLITICAL VICTORY FUND et al. certiorari to the united states court of appeals for the district of columbia circuit No. 93­1151. Argued October 11, 1994-Decided December 6, 1994 Petitioner Federal Election Commission (FEC) brought this civil action against respondents seeking to enforce a provision of the Federal Elec- tion Campaign Act of 1971 (FECA). The District Court ruled against respondents. The Court of Appeals reversed and entered its judgment on October 22, 1993. Without first seeking or obtaining the Solicitor General's authorization, the FEC filed in its own name a petition for a writ of certiorari on January 18, 1994, two days before the expiration of the 90-day filing period mandated by 28 U. S. C. § 2101(c). The United States filed a brief contending that the FEC lacked statutory authority to represent itself in this case in this Court, but that, pursuant to 28 U. S. C. § 518(a) and its implementing regulation, the Solicitor General had authorized the FEC's petition by letter dated May 26, 1994. This authorization came more than 120 days after the § 2101(c) filing deadline had passed. The FEC filed a brief in response asserting that it has independent statutory authority to represent itself in this Court. Held:1. The FEC may not independently file a petition for certiorari in this Court under 2 U. S. C. § 437d(a)(6). That statute empowers the FEC "to . . . appeal any civil action . . . to enforce the provisions of [the FECA]," but it omits any mention of authority to file a "petition for a writ of certiorari" or otherwise conduct litigation before the Supreme Court. By contrast, 26 U. S. C. §§ 9010(d) and 9040(d) explicitly author- ize the FEC to "appeal from, and to petition the Supreme Court for certiorari to review" (emphasis added), judgments in actions to enforce the Presidential election fund laws, thereby indicating a congressional intent to restrict the FEC's independent litigating authority in this Court to such actions. The contrasting language in §§ 9040(d) and 437d(a)(6) is particularly telling because these sections were originally enacted as part of the same legislation. The mere existence of sound policy reasons for providing the FEC with independent litigating au- thority in this Court for actions enforcing the FECA does not demon- strate a congressional intent to alter the Solicitor General's prerogative under § 518(a) to conduct and argue the Federal Government's litigation 513us1$$7z 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 88 (1994) 89 Syllabus here, since that statutory authority itself represents a policy choice by Congress. Nor is it dispositive that the FEC has represented itself before this Court in several FECA enforcement cases in the past, since none of those cases involved a challenge to the Court's jurisdiction. Moreover, the provisions authorizing the FEC to litigate in the federal courts are not the sort of substantive provisions which can be said to be within the agency's province to interpret. Pp. 90­97. 2. The Solicitor General's "after-the-fact" authorization does not re- late back to the date of the FEC's unauthorized filing so as to make it timely. Under governing agency law principles, particularly the doc- trine of ratification, the authorization simply came too late in the day to be effective: The Solicitor General attempted to ratify the FEC's filing on May 26, 1994, but he could not himself have filed a certiorari petition on that date because the 90-day time period for filing a petition had already expired. This result is entirely consistent with, and perhaps required by, § 2101(c). If the Solicitor General were allowed to retroac- tively authorize untimely agency petitions, he would have the unilateral power to extend the 90-day statutory period by days, weeks, or, as here, even months. This would impermissibly blur § 2101(c)'s jurisdictional deadline. Pp. 98­99. Certiorari dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Reported below: 6 F. 3d 821. Rehnquist, C.

NRA POLITICAL VICTORY FUND Opinion of the Court Chief Justice Rehnquist delivered the opinion of the Court. We granted certiorari in this case to review a judgment of the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit holding that the congressionally mandated composition of petitioner Federal Election Commission (FEC), including as it did representatives of the Senate and House as nonvoting members, violated the separation-of-powers principle em- bodied in the Constitution. 512 U. S. 1218 (1994). We do not reach the merits of the question, however, because we conclude that the FEC is not authorized to petition for cer- tiorari in this Court on its own, and that the effort of the Solicitor General to authorize the FEC's petition after the time for filing it had expired did not breathe life into it. The Court of Appeals entered judgment in this case on October 22, 1993. 6 F. 3d 821. The FEC, in its own name, filed a petition for a writ of certiorari on January 18, 1994. The FEC neither sought nor obtained the authorization of the Solicitor General before filing its petition. By order dated March 21, 1994, 510 U. S. 1190, we invited the United States to file a brief addressing the question "[w]hether the [FEC] has statutory authority to represent itself in this case in this Court." The United States filed a brief on May 27, 1994, contending that the FEC lacks such statutory author- ity. The United States stated, however, that pursuant to 28 U. S. C. § 518(a) and its implementing regulation, the Solici- tor General had authorized the FEC's petition by letter dated May 26, 1994. See Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 13. The FEC filed a brief in response on May 31, 1994, asserting that it has independent statutory authority to represent itself before this Court in this case. A petition for certiorari in a civil case must be filed within 90 days of the entry of the judgment below. 28 U. S. C. § 2101(c). This "90-day limit is mandatory and jurisdic- tional." Missouri v. Jenkins, 495 U. S. 33, 45 (1990). Here, the Court of Appeals entered judgment on October 22, 1993, 513us1$$7H 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 88 (1994) 91 Opinion of the Court and the FEC filed its petition for certiorari on January 18, 1994, two days before the 90-day time period expired. The FEC's petition would appear to be timely. However, if the FEC lacks statutory authority to represent itself in this case before this Court, it cannot independently file a petition for certiorari, but must receive the Solicitor General's authoriza- tion. See 28 CFR § 0.20(a) (1994). The question then be- comes whether the Solicitor General's May 26, 1994, letter authorizing the FEC's petition relates back to the date of the FEC's unauthorized filing so as to make it timely. We first examine the scope of the FEC's independent litigat- ing authority. The FEC is an independent agency established by Con- gress to "administer, seek to obtain compliance with, and formulate policy" with respect to the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 (FECA) and chapters 95 and 96 of Title 26. 86 Stat. 3, as amended, 2 U. S. C. § 437c(b)(1). The FECA governs various aspects of all federal elections, see 2 U. S. C. § 431 et seq., whereas chapters 95 and 96 specifically govern the administration of funds for Presidential election campaigns and the payment of matching funds for Presiden- tial primary campaigns, see 26 U. S. C. § 9001 et seq. (Presi- dential Election Campaign Fund Act), 26 U. S. C. § 9031 et seq. (Presidential Primary Matching Payment Account Act). The FEC has "exclusive jurisdiction with respect to the civil enforcement of such provisions." 2 U. S. C. § 437c(b)(1); see Federal Election Comm'n v. National Conservative Politi- cal Action Comm., 470 U. S. 480, 485, 489 (1985). Two separate statutory provisions provide the FEC with independent litigating authority. The first provision, 2 U. S. C. § 437d(a)(6), applies to actions under both the FECA and chapters 95 and 96 of Title 26. It gives the FEC power "to initiate . . . , defend . . . or appeal any civil action . . . to enforce the provisions of [the FECA] and chapter 95 and chapter 96 of title 26, through its general counsel." The sec- ond provision, which is contained in 26 U. S. C. §§ 9010(d) and 513us1$$7H 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT 92 FEDERAL ELECTION COMM'N v. NRA POLITICAL VICTORY FUND Opinion of the Court 9040(d), applies only to actions under chapters 95 and 96 of Title 26. It authorizes the FEC "on behalf of the United States to appeal from, and to petition the Supreme Court for certiorari to review, judgments or decrees entered with respect to actions in which it appears pursuant to the author- ity provided in this section." The FEC brought this civil enforcement action seeking to establish a violation of 2 U. S. C. § 441b(a), a provision of the FECA. As noted above, 2 U. S. C. § 437d(a)(6) authorizes the FEC to "initiate" and "appeal" an FECA enforcement action such as the present one. Thus, no dispute exists as to the FEC's authority to litigate this case in the District Court or the Court of Appeals; 1 the question here concerns only the FEC's independent litigating authority before this Court when it proceeds under § 437d(a)(6). Title 28 U. S. C. § 518(a) provides in pertinent part: "Except when the Attorney General in a particular case directs otherwise, the Attorney General and the Solicitor General shall conduct and argue suits and appeals in the Supreme Court . . . in which the United States is interested." By regulation, the Attorney General has delegated authority to the Solicitor General: "The following-described matters are assigned to, and shall be conducted, handled, or supervised by, the Solici- tor General, in consultation with each agency or official concerned: "(a) Conducting, or assigning and supervising, all Supreme Court cases, including appeals, petitions for 1 Under 28 U. S. C. §§ 516 and 519, the conduct of litigation on behalf of the United States and its agencies is subject to control of the Attorney General "[e]xcept as otherwise authorized by law." The FEC's "initia- tion" and "appeal" of this action fall within this "otherwise authorized by law" exception. 513us1$$7H 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 88 (1994) 93 Opinion of the Court and in opposition to certiorari, briefs and arguments, and . . . settlement thereof." 28 CFR § 0.20 (1994). Thus, if a case is one "in which the United States is inter- ested," § 518(a), "it must be conducted and argued in this Court by the Solicitor General or his designee." United States v. Providence Journal Co., 485 U. S. 693, 700 (1988); cf. United States v. Winston, 170 U. S. 522, 524­525 (1898); Confiscation Cases, 7 Wall. 454, 458 (1869). It is undisputed that this is a case "in which the United States is interested." 28 U. S. C. § 518(a). We have recog- nized, however, that Congress may "exempt litigation from the otherwise blanket coverage of [§ 518(a)]." Providence Journal, 485 U. S., at 705, n. 9. According to the FEC, one such exemption is found in 2 U. S. C. § 437d(a)(6). Bearing in mind the Solicitor General's traditional role in conducting and controlling all Supreme Court litigation on behalf of the United States and its agencies-a role that is critical to the proper management of Government litigation brought before this Court, see id., at 702, n. 7, 706; id., at 709, 713­714 (Stevens, J., dissenting)-we "must . . . scrutiniz[e] and sub- jec[t] [§ 437d(a)(6)] to the ordinary tools of statutory construc- tion to determine whether Congress intended to supersede § 518(a)." Id., at 705, n. 9. Title 2 U. S. C. § 437d(a)(6) gives the FEC power "to initi- ate . . . , defend . . . or appeal any civil action . . . to enforce the provisions of [the FECA] and chapter 95 and chapter 96 of title 26." The statute clearly authorizes the FEC to "appeal," but it omits any mention of authority to file a "peti- tion for a writ of certiorari" or otherwise conduct litigation before the Supreme Court. The FEC argues that the term "appeal" is not defined in the FECA, and that in the absence of such a definition in the statute the term is construed "in accordance with its ordinary or natural meaning." FDIC v. Meyer, 510 U. S. 471, 476 (1994). It then refers to the definition of "appeal" found in Black's Law Dictionary 96 (6th ed. 1990), which includes, inter alia, the following: 513us1$$7H 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT 94 FEDERAL ELECTION COMM'N v. NRA POLITICAL VICTORY FUND Opinion of the Court "There are two stages of appeal in the federal and many state court systems; to wit, appeal from trial court to intermediate appellate court and then to Supreme Court." This argument might carry considerable weight if it were not for the cognate provision authorizing the FEC to enforce chapters 95 and 96 of Title 26. There, Congress has explic- itly provided that "[t]he [FEC] is authorized on behalf of the United States to appeal from, and to petition the Supreme Court for certiorari to review," judgments or decrees. 26 U. S. C. §§ 9010(d), 9040(d) (emphasis added). It is difficult, if not impossible, to place these sections alongside one an- other without concluding that Congress intended to restrict the FEC's independent litigating authority in this Court to actions enforcing the provisions of the Presidential election funds under chapters 95 and 96 of Title 26. Such a differen- tiation by Congress would be quite understandable, since Presidential influence through the Solicitor General might be thought more likely in cases involving Presidential election fund controversies than in other litigation in which the FEC is involved.2 The FEC argues that 26 U. S. C. §§ 9010(d) and 9040(d) shed no light on the issue whether 2 U. S. C. § 437d(a)(6) gives it independent litigating authority before this Court because the provisions are found in different statutes, were drafted by different Congresses in different years, and were 2 The dissent says it is incongruous "to assume that Congress wanted the FEC to have independent authority to invoke our mandatory [appel- late] jurisdiction when proceeding under § 437h, but not to have the au- thority to invoke our discretionary jurisdiction when proceeding under other sections of the same statute." Post, at 100, n. 1. But Congress could have thought the Solicitor General would better represent the FEC's interests in cases involving our discretionary jurisdiction "because the tra- ditional specialization of that office has led it to be keenly attuned to this Court's practice with respect to the granting or denying of petitions for certiorari."

Brief for Petitioner in Response to Solicitor Gen- eral 21. The FEC is only partially correct. Section 9010(d) was first enacted in 1971, and at that time it applied to the Comptroller General. See Presidential Election Campaign Fund Act, Pub. L. 92­178, 85 Stat. 497, 569­570. The Fed- eral Election Campaign Act Amendments of 1974 established the FEC, see Pub. L. 93­443, 88 Stat. 1263, 1280, and enacted § 437d(a)(6). See id., at 1282­1283. The 1974 statute trans- ferred to the FEC the functions previously performed by the Comptroller General under 26 U. S. C. § 9010, see id., at 1293, but it also added § 9040 to Title 26. See id., at 1302. Thus, § 9040(d) was originally enacted in 1974 as part of the same legislation that created § 437d(a)(6). Each of the two sec- tions, with its contrasting language as to litigating authority, was before the Conference Committee whose report was ultimately adopted by both Houses. H. R. Conf. Rep. No. 93­1438, pp. 967, 989 (1974). Section 9040(d) may have been modeled on § 9010(d), but because both §§ 9040(d) and 437d(a)(6) were designed to deal with the FEC's authority to represent itself in civil enforcement actions, we find the contrasting language to be particularly telling. See United States v. American Building Maintenance Industries, 422 U. S. 271, 277 (1975); cf. Keene Corp. v. United States, 508 U. S. 200, 208 (1993) ("Where Congress includes particular language in one section of a statute but omits it in another . . . , it is generally presumed that Congress acts intention- ally and purposely in the disparate inclusion or exclusion") (internal quotation marks and citation omitted). We recognize sound policy reasons may exist for providing the FEC with independent litigating authority in this Court for actions enforcing the FECA. Congress' decision to cre- ate the FEC as an independent agency and to charge it with the civil enforcement of the FECA was undoubtedly influ- enced by Congress' belief that the Justice Department, headed by a Presidential appointee, might choose to ignore 513us1$$7H 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT 96 FEDERAL ELECTION COMM'N v. NRA POLITICAL VICTORY FUND Opinion of the Court infractions committed by members of the President's own political party. See, e. g., Federal Election Reform, 1973: Hearings before the Subcommittee on Priveleges [sic] and Elections and the Senate Committee on Rules and Admin- istration, 93d Cong., 1st Sess., 17, 177, 186 (1973); Federal Election Campaign Act of 1973: Hearings before the Subcom- mittee on Communications of the Senate Committee on Com- merce, 93d Cong., 1st Sess., 70­71 (1973). The fact that Con- gress had these policies in mind when giving the FEC independent enforcement powers, however, does not demon- strate that it intended to alter the Solicitor General's statu- tory prerogative to conduct and argue the Federal Govern- ment's litigation in the Supreme Court. See 28 U. S. C. § 518(a). That statutory authority, too, represents a policy choice by Congress to vest the conduct of litigation before this Court in the Attorney General, an authority which has by rule and tradition been delegated to the Solicitor General. See 28 CFR § 0.20(a) (1994). This Court, of course, is well served by such a practice, because the traditional specialization of that office has led it to be keenly attuned to this Court's practice with respect to the granting or denying of petitions for certiorari. But the practice also serves the Government well; an individual Government agency necessarily has a more parochial view of the interest of the Government in litigation than does the Solicitor General's office, with its broader view of litigation in which the Government is in- volved throughout the state and federal court systems. Whether review of a decision adverse to the Government in a court of appeals should be sought depends on a number of factors which do not lend themselves to easy categorization. The Government as a whole is apt to fare better if these decisions are concentrated in a single official. See Provi- dence Journal, 485 U. S., at 706. Congress could obviously choose, if it sought to do so, to sacrifice the policy favoring concentration of litigating 513us1$$7H 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

But we do not think that § 437d(a)(6) bespeaks such a choice. Nor are we impressed by the FEC's argument that it has represented itself before this Court on several occasions in the past without any ques- tion having been raised regarding its authority to do so under § 437d(a)(6). See, e. g., Federal Election Comm'n v. Massachusetts Citizens for Life, Inc., 479 U. S. 238 (1986) (finding 2 U. S. C. § 441b unconstitutional as applied); Federal Election Comm'n v. National Right to Work Comm., 459 U. S. 197 (1982) (involving interpretation of 2 U. S. C. § 441b(b)(4)(C)); Bread Political Action Comm. v. Federal Election Comm'n, 455 U. S. 577 (1982) (involving application of 2 U. S. C. § 437h(a)); Federal Election Comm'n v. Demo- cratic Senatorial Campaign Comm., 454 U. S. 27 (1981) (in- volving application of 2 U. S. C. § 441a(d)(3)); California Medical Assn. v. Federal Election Comm'n, 453 U. S. 182 (1981) (upholding constitutionality of certain campaign ex- penditure limitations imposed by 2 U. S. C. § 431 et seq.). The jurisdiction of this Court was challenged in none of these actions, and therefore the question is an open one before us. See, e. g., Will v. Michigan Dept. of State Police, 491 U. S. 58, 63, n. 4 (1989) ("[T]his Court has never considered itself bound [by prior sub silentio holdings] when a subsequent case finally brings the jurisdictional issue before us") (cita- tion and internal quotation marks omitted); United States v. L. A. Tucker Truck Lines, Inc., 344 U. S. 33, 38 (1952) (same). And we do not think that the provisions discussed above, authorizing the FEC to litigate in the federal courts, are the sort of provisions that can be said to be within the province of the agency to interpret. Federal Election Comm'n v. Democratic Senatorial Campaign Comm., supra, at 37, re- lied upon by the FEC, dealt with the FEC's interpretation of a substantive provision of the FECA, not with the provisions authorizing independent litigation. 513us1$$7H 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT 98 FEDERAL ELECTION COMM'N v. NRA POLITICAL VICTORY FUND Opinion of the Court Because the FEC lacks statutory authority to litigate this case in this Court, it necessarily follows that the FEC cannot independently file a petition for certiorari, but must receive the Solicitor General's authorization. See 28 CFR § 0.20(a) (1994). By letter dated May 26, 1994, the Solicitor General authorized the petition filed by the FEC. The Solicitor Gen- eral's authorization, however, did not come until more than 120 days after the deadline for filing a petition had passed. See 28 U. S. C. § 2101(c). We must determine whether this "after-the-fact" authorization relates back to the date of the FEC's unauthorized filing so as to make it timely. We con- clude that it does not. The question is at least presumptively governed by princi- ples of agency law, and in particular the doctrine of ratifica- tion. "If an act to be effective in creating a right against another or to deprive him of a right must be performed be- fore a specific time, an affirmance is not effective against the other unless made before such time." Restatement (Sec- ond) of Agency § 90 (1958); see also id., Comment a ("The bringing of an action, or of an appeal, by a purported agent can not be ratified after the cause of action or right to appeal has been terminated by lapse of time"). Though in a differ- ent context, we have recognized the rationale behind this rule: "The intervening rights of third persons cannot be de- feated by the ratification. In other words, it is essential that the party ratifying should be able not merely to do the act ratified at the time the act was done, but also at the time the ratification was made." Cook v. Tullis, 18 Wall. 332, 338 (1874) (emphasis added). Here, the Solicitor General at- tempted to ratify the FEC's filing on May 26, 1994, but he could not himself have filed a petition for certiorari on that date because the 90-day time period for filing a petition had expired on January 20, 1994. His authorization simply came too late in the day to be effective. See, e. g., Nasewaupee v. Sturgeon Bay, 77 Wis. 2d 110, 116­119, 251 N. W. 2d 845, 513us1$$7H 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 88 (1994) 99 Opinion of the Court 848­849 (1977) (refusing to uphold town board's ratification of private attorney's unauthorized commencement of lawsuit where ratification came after the statute of limitations had run); Wagner v. Globe, 150 Ariz. 82, 87, 722 P. 2d 250, 255 (1986) (holding invalid city council's attempt to ratify police chief's dismissal of police officer after police officer com- menced a wrongful discharge action). But see Trenton v. Fowler-Thorne Co., 57 N. J. Super. 196, 154 A. 2d 369 (1959) (upholding city's ratification of unauthorized lawsuit filed on its behalf even though ratification occurred after limitations period had expired). The application of these principles of agency law here pro- duces a result entirely consistent with, and perhaps required by, 28 U. S. C. § 2101(c), the statute governing the time for filing petitions for certiorari. "We have no authority to ex- tend the period for filing except as Congress permits." Jen- kins, 495 U. S., at 45. If the Solicitor General were allowed to retroactively authorize otherwise unauthorized agency petitions after the deadline had expired, he would have the unilateral power to extend the 90-day statutory period for filing certiorari petitions by days, weeks, or, as in this case, even months. Such a practice would result in the blurring of the jurisdictional deadline. But "[t]he time of appealabil- ity, having jurisdictional consequences, should above all be clear." Budinich v. Becton Dickinson & Co., 486 U. S. 196, 202 (1988). We hold that the FEC may not independently file a peti- tion for certiorari in this Court under 2 U. S. C. § 437d(a)(6), and that the Solicitor General's "after-the-fact" authorization does not relate back to the date of the FEC's unauthorized filing so as to make it timely. We therefore dismiss the peti- tion for certiorari for want of jurisdiction. It is so ordered. Justice Ginsburg took no part in the consideration or decision of this case. 513us1$$7H 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT 100 FEDERAL ELECTION COMM'N v. NRA POLITICAL VICTORY FUND Stevens, J., dissenting Justice Stevens, dissenting. The Federal Election Commission (FEC) "is an independ- ent administrative agency vested with exclusive jurisdiction over civil enforcement of the [Federal Election Campaign] Act." Federal Election Comm'n v. National Right to Work Comm., 459 U. S. 197, 198, n. 2 (1982). Both the plain lan- guage of the governing statute, § 311(a)(6), 88 Stat. 1282, as amended, 2 U. S. C. § 437d(a)(6), and the unfortunate chapter in our history that gave rise to the creation of the FEC, demonstrate that the FEC's exclusive jurisdiction includes the authority to litigate in this Court without the prior ap- proval of the Solicitor General. Section 437d(a)(6) expressly provides that the FEC has the power "to initiate . . . , defend . . . or appeal any civil action in the name of the Commission to enforce the provi- sions of this Act and chapter 95 and chapter 96 of title 26, through its general counsel." It is undisputed that when the statute was enacted, the FEC had the authority to invoke our mandatory jurisdiction by filing an appeal under § 437h of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971.1 Although the term "appeal" may be construed literally to encompass only mandatory review, a far more natural reading of the term as it is used in § 437d(a)(6) would embrace all appellate litigation whether prosecuted by writ of certiorari, writ of mandamus, or notice of appeal. Indeed, 28 U. S. C. § 518(a) (1988 ed., Supp. V), the statute that gives the Attorney 1 Under the original statutory scheme, certain constitutional challenges were to be certified to a court of appeals sitting en banc, with "appeal directly to the Supreme Court." 2 U. S. C. § 437h (1976 ed. and Supp. III). See generally California Medical Assn. v. Federal Election Comm'n, 453 U. S. 182, 188­189 (1981). Thus, even under the majority's interpretation of the word "appeal," the FEC would have had independent litigating authority, at least when proceeding under § 437h. It is incongruous, to say the least, to assume that Congress wanted the FEC to have independ- ent authority to invoke our mandatory jurisdiction when proceeding under § 437h, but not to have the authority to invoke our discretionary jurisdic- tion when proceeding under other sections of the same statute. 513us1$$7I 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 88 (1994) 101 Stevens, J., dissenting General authority to conduct litigation in this Court, refers simply to "suits and appeals." Because the term "suits" apparently refers to our original jurisdiction, it appears that the term "appeals" is intended to refer to a broad range of appellate litigation, including both mandatory appeals and petitions for certiorari. The ambiguity in the word "appeal" is apparent even in §§ 9010(d) and 9040(d), the sections on which the majority relies to cabin the authority granted in § 437d(a)(6). In those sections, Congress uses the word "appeal" to describe two different categories of appellate litigation. In the text of those sections, "appeal" is used in contradistinction to "writ of certiorari" to indicate mandatory appeals. But Congress also uses "appeal" as the title to both §§ 9010(d) and 9040(d). See n. 4, infra. As thus used, "appeal" de- scribes an entire category of appellate litigation that includes mandatory appeals and writs of certiorari. I see no reason for assuming that "appeal" in § 437d(a)(6) was intended to incorporate the narrow, rather than the broad, understand- ing of "appeal." The historical context in which Congress adopted § 437d(a)(6) demonstrates that the interpretation that the Court adopts today is unfaithful to the intent of Congress. Section 437d(a)(6) was passed as part of the Federal Election Campaign Act Amendments of 1974 (FECA). The 1974 amendments represented a response by Congress to per- ceived abuses arising out of the 1972 Presidential election campaign and culminating in the resignation of President Nixon. Indeed, the legislative history reveals Congress' be- lief that "[p]robably the most significant reform that could emerge from the Watergate scandal is the creation of an in- dependent nonpartisan agency to supervise the enforcement of the laws relating to the conduct of elections." 2 2 See Final Report of the Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities, S. Rep. No. 93­981, 93d Cong., 2d Sess., 564 (1974). 513us1$$7I 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT 102 FEDERAL ELECTION COMM'N v. NRA POLITICAL VICTORY FUND Stevens, J., dissenting One of the most dramatic events of the entire Watergate scandal was the firing of special prosecutor Archibald Cox in October 1973. When Cox threatened to secure a judicial determination that the President was violating a court order to deliver certain Presidential tapes, President Nixon or- dered the Attorney General to fire Cox. Both the Attorney General and the Deputy Attorney General refused, and in- stead resigned. The President's order to fire Cox was then carried out by the Solicitor General, in his capacity as Acting Attorney General. See generally In re Olson, 818 F. 2d 34, 41­42 (CADC 1987) (per curiam). This incident, which came to be known as the "Saturday Night Massacre," sparked tremendous public outrage, of which Congress was surely aware. Against this background, Congress would not have been likely, less than one year later, to have made the FEC dependent for its Supreme Court litigation on the ap- proval of the Solicitor General. In short, the legislative history of the 1974 amendments shows that Congress intended the FEC to have ample au- thority to oversee Presidential campaigns free of Executive influence. The FEC's authority to conduct civil litigation, including appellate litigation, must be construed in the light of Congress' intent. Given the language and historical context of § 437d(a)(6), it is unsurprising that the FEC has had a long and uninter- rupted history of independent litigation before this Court.3 Though, as the majority notes, ante, at 97, that history does not preclude us from reexamining the FEC's authority, the contemporaneous practice of independent litigation, uninter- rupted in subsequent years, provides confirmation of Con- 3 The FEC has represented itself in cases resulting in decisions on the merits, see ante, at 97, and as amicus curiae, see, e. g., First Nat. Bank of Boston v. Bellotti, 435 U. S. 765 (1978); Austin v. Michigan Chamber of Commerce, 494 U. S. 652 (1990). Cf. R. Stern, E. Gressman, S. Shapiro, & K. Geller, Supreme Court Practice 68, n. 56 (7th ed. 1993) (noting FEC's authority to litigate on its own behalf pursuant to § 437d(a)(6)). 513us1$$7I 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 88 (1994) 103 Stevens, J., dissenting gress' original intent. See BankAmerica Corp. v. United States, 462 U. S. 122, 131 (1983). Moreover, during the ad- ministrations of Presidents Ford, Carter, Reagan, and Bush, the Attorneys General and Solicitors General of the United States did not object to the FEC's exercise of authority to litigate in this Court without the prior approval of the Solici- tor General. As this Court has noted: " `[J]ust as established practice may shed light on the extent of power conveyed by general statutory lan- guage, so the want of assertion of power by those who presumably would be alert to exercise it, is equally sig- nificant in determining whether such power was actually conferred.' " Ibid., quoting FTC v. Bunte Brothers, Inc., 312 U. S. 349, 352 (1941). See also FPC v. Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Co., 337 U. S. 498, 513 (1949) ("Failure to use such an important power for [over 10 years] indicates to us that the Commission did not believe the power existed"). In rejecting the result dictated by language, history, and longstanding practice, the majority relies primarily on the differences between § 437d(a)(6) and 26 U. S. C. §§ 9010(d), 9040(d).4 The relevant language in § 9010, which originally conferred additional and unusual responsibilities on the Comptroller General of the United States, was enacted in 1971 as part of the Presidential Election Campaign Fund Act (Fund Act), which authorized public funding of Presidential campaigns.5 As the majority notes, ante, at 95, § 9040(d) was enacted at the same time as § 437d(a)(6), in 1974. The majority suggests that the differences between §§ 9040(d) and 4 Sections 9010(d) and 9040(d) are identical. They read: "(d) Appeal. The Commission is authorized on behalf of the United States to appeal from, and to petition the Supreme Court for certiorari to review, judgments or decrees entered with respect to actions in which it appears pursuant to the authority provided in this section." 5 The 1974 amendment transferred those responsibilities to the FEC. 513us1$$7I 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT 104 FEDERAL ELECTION COMM'N v. NRA POLITICAL VICTORY FUND Stevens, J., dissenting 437d(a)(6) reveal Congress' intent to give the FEC a more limited litigation authority under the latter statute. The differences between §§ 437d(a)(6) and 9040(d) cannot support the weight that the majority wishes them to bear. The striking similarity between §§ 9010 and 9040 suggests that when Congress enacted § 9040, it did little more than copy the provisions of § 9010.6 No evidence whatsoever sug- gests that Congress considered the significance of the word- ing of those sections when it created § 437d(a)(6). The fact that the FEC's authority to file petitions for certiorari is expressed more explicitly in §§ 9010(d) and 9040(d) of Title 26 than in § 437d(a)(6) of Title 2 is thus not a sufficient reason for failing to give the latter provision its ordinary and well- accepted interpretation.7 Furthermore, the majority's reading of the statutes rests on the anomalous premise that Congress decided to give the FEC authority to litigate Fund Act cases in this Court while denying it similar authority in connection with its broader regulatory responsibilities under the FECA. The majority 6 As noted at n. 4, supra, §§ 9010(d) and 9040(d) are identical. The other provisions of those statutes, though not identical, are substantially similar. Compare, e. g., § 9010(b) ("The Commission is authorized through attor- neys and counsel described in subsection (a) to appear in the district courts of the United States to seek recovery of any amounts determined to be payable to the Secretary of the Treasury as a result of examination and audit made pursuant to section 9007") with § 9040(b) ("The Commission is authorized, through attorneys and counsel described in subsection (a), to institute actions in the district courts of the United States to seek recov- ery of any amounts determined to be payable to the Secretary as a result of an examination and audit made pursuant to section 9038"). 7 As an aside, I note that the majority's strict reading of §§ 9010(d) and 9040(d) creates its own oddities. For example, it seems to me that an open question under the Court's narrow reading of the statutes is whether the FEC has the right to file briefs in opposition to the certiorari petitions filed by its adversaries. Compare § 9010(d) (granting the FEC authority to "petition the Supreme Court for certiorari to review") with 28 CFR § 0.20 (1994) (delegating to the Solicitor General authority to file "petitions for and in opposition to certiorari") (emphasis added). 513us1$$7I 03-30-98 08:21:47 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 88 (1994) 105 Stevens, J., dissenting explains this anomaly by hypothesizing that "Presidential in- fluence through the Solicitor General might be thought more likely in cases involving Presidential election fund controver- sies than in other litigation in which the FEC is involved." Ante, at 94. This hypothesis is untenable. Indeed, the Court has previously noted: "[B]oth the Fund Act and FECA play a part in regulat- ing Presidential campaigns. The Fund Act comes into play only if a candidate chooses to accept public funding of his general election campaign, and it covers only the period between the nominating convention and 30 days after the general election. In contrast, FECA applies to all Presidential campaigns, as well as other federal elections, regardless of whether publicly or privately funded." Federal Election Comm'n v. National Con- servative Political Action Comm., 470 U. S. 480, 491 (1985). Finally, though admittedly important, the 1971 Act was a relatively undramatic piece of legislation, enacted before Watergate seized the national (and congressional) attention. The notion that Congress was motivated by a concern about improper Presidential influence in 1971 when it enacted the Fund Act, but ignored such concerns in 1974 when it enacted FECA, is simply belied by "a page of history." See New York Trust Co. v. Eisner, 256 U. S. 345, 349 (1921) (Holmes, J.). During two decades of FEC litigation we have repeatedly recognized that the FEC's express statutory authority to ini- tiate, defend, or "appeal any civil action" to enforce FECA "through its general counsel" encompasses discretionary ap- pellate review as well as the now almost extinct mandatory appellate review in this Court. Because I remain persuaded that this settled practice was faithful to both the plain lan- guage and the underlying purpose of § 437d(a)(6), I respect- fully dissent. 513us1$$8z 03-28-98 15:12:32 PAGES OPINPGT 106 OCTOBER TERM, 1994 Syllabus REICH v. COLLINS, REVENUE COMMISSIONER OF GEORGIA, et al. certiorari to the supreme court of georgia No. 93­908. Argued October 11, 1994-Decided December 6, 1994 Georgia taxed retirement benefits paid by the Federal Government, but exempted those paid by the State, until this Court held, in 1989, that such a scheme violates the Federal Constitution. Georgia then re- pealed its state retiree tax exemption, but did not offer federal retirees refunds for the unconstitutional taxes they had paid before the Court's 1989 decision. Petitioner Reich, a federal retiree, sought redress under a Georgia statute requiring refunds of "illegally assessed" taxes. In affirming the state trial court's denial of such relief, the State Supreme Court held that the refund statute does not apply where the law under which the taxes were assessed and collected was itself subsequently declared to be invalid. It then denied Reich's petition seeking reconsid- eration under McKesson Corp. v. Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco, Fla. Dept. of Business Regulation, 496 U. S. 18, and similar cases, which establish that due process requires a "clear and certain" remedy for taxes collected in violation of federal law, and that a State may provide that remedy before the disputed taxes are paid (predepri- vation), after they are paid (postdeprivation), or both. Reich petitioned for certiorari, and this Court remanded for further consideration in light of Harper v. Virginia Dept. of Taxation, 509 U. S. 86, which had relied on McKesson in circumstances similar to this case. In again denying Reich's refund claim, the State Supreme Court reviewed Georgia's pre- deprivation remedies and found those remedies to be "ample." Held: The Georgia Supreme Court erred in relying on Georgia's predepri- vation remedies to deny relief. Although due process, under McKes- son, allows a State to maintain a remedial scheme that is exclusively predeprivation, exclusively postdeprivation, or a hybrid, and to recon- figure its scheme over time to fit changing needs, it may not do what Georgia did here: "bait and switch" by reconfiguring, unfairly, in mid- course. Specifically, Georgia held out what plainly appeared to be a "clear and certain" postdeprivation remedy, its tax refund statute, and then declared, only after Reich and others had paid the disputed taxes, that no such remedy exists. In this regard, the State Supreme Court's reliance on predeprivation procedures was entirely beside the point (and thus error), because even assuming the constitutional adequacy of those procedures-an issue not here addressed-no reasonable taxpayer 513us1$$8z 03-28-98 15:12:32 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

COLLINS Opinion of the Court Justice O'Connor delivered the opinion of the Court. In a long line of cases, this Court has established that due process requires a "clear and certain" remedy for taxes col- lected in violation of federal law. Atchison, T. & S. F. R. Co. v. O'Connor, 223 U. S. 280, 285 (1912) (Holmes, J.). A State has the flexibility to provide that remedy before the disputed taxes are paid (predeprivation), after they are paid (postdep- rivation), or both. But what it may not do, and what Geor- gia did here, is hold out what plainly appears to be a "clear and certain" postdeprivation remedy and then declare, only after the disputed taxes have been paid, that no such rem- edy exists. I For many years, numerous States, including Georgia, ex- empted from state personal income tax retirement benefits paid by the State, but not retirement benefits paid by the Federal Government (or any other employer). In March 1989, this Court held that such a tax scheme violates the constitutional intergovernmental tax immunity doctrine, which dates back to McCulloch v. Maryland, 4 Wheat. 316 (1819), and has been generally codified at 4 U. S. C. § 111. See Davis v. Michigan Dept. of Treasury, 489 U. S. 803 (1989). In the aftermath of Davis, most of these States, Georgia included, repealed their special tax exemptions for state re- tirees, but few offered federal retirees any refunds for the unconstitutional taxes they had paid in the years before Davis was decided. Not surprisingly, a great deal of litiga- tion ensued in an effort to force States to provide refunds. The instant suit is part of that litigation. In April 1990, Reich, a retired federal military officer, sued Georgia in Georgia state court, seeking a refund for the tax years 1980 and after. The principal legal basis for Reich's Deputy Attorneys General, and Marilyn R. Mudge, Assistant Attorney General, filed a brief for the State of North Carolina as amicus curiae. 513us1$$8J 03-28-98 15:12:32 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 106 (1994) 109 Opinion of the Court lawsuit was Georgia's tax refund statute, which provides: "A taxpayer shall be refunded any and all taxes or fees which are determined to have been erroneously or illegally as- sessed and collected from him under the laws of this state, whether paid voluntarily or involuntarily . . . ." Ga. Code Ann. § 48­2­35(a) (Supp. 1994). The Georgia trial court first decided that, because of § 48­2­35's statute of limitations, Reich's refund request was limited to the tax years 1985 and after. Even as to these later tax years, however, the trial court refused to grant a refund, and the Georgia Supreme Court affirmed. See Reich v. Collins, 262 Ga. 625, 422 S. E. 2d 846 (1992) (Reich I). The Georgia high court explained that it was construing the refund statute not to apply to "the situation where the law under which the taxes are assessed and collected is itself subsequently declared to be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid." Id., at 628­629, 422 S. E. 2d, at 849. Reich then petitioned the Georgia Supreme Court for re- consideration of its decision on the grounds that even if the Georgia tax refund statute does not require a refund, federal due process does-due process, that is, as interpreted by McKesson Corp. v. Division of Alcoholic Beverages and To- bacco, Fla. Dept. of Business Regulation, 496 U. S. 18 (1990), and the long line of cases upon which McKesson depends. See id., at 32­36, citing Iowa-Des Moines Nat. Bank v. Ben- nett, 284 U. S. 239 (1931); Montana Nat. Bank of Billings v. Yellowstone County, 276 U. S. 499 (1928); Carpenter v. Shaw, 280 U. S. 363 (1930); Ward v. Board of Commr's of Love Cty., 253 U. S. 17 (1920); Atchison, T. & S. F. R. Co. v. O'Connor, supra; see generally Fallon & Meltzer, New Law, Non- Retroactivity, and Constitutional Remedies, 104 Harv. L. Rev. 1733, 1824­1830 (1991). As we said, these cases stand for the proposition that "a denial by a state court of a recov- ery of taxes exacted in violation of the laws or Constitution of the United States by compulsion is itself in contravention of the Fourteenth Amendment," Carpenter, supra, at 369, 513us1$$8J 03-28-98 15:12:32 PAGES OPINPGT 110 REICH v. COLLINS Opinion of the Court the sovereign immunity States traditionally enjoy in their own courts notwithstanding. (We should note that the sov- ereign immunity States enjoy in federal court, under the Eleventh Amendment, does generally bar tax refund claims from being brought in that forum. See Ford Motor Co. v. Department of Treasury of Ind., 323 U. S. 459 (1945).) Reich's petition for reconsideration in light of McKesson was denied. He then petitioned for certiorari. While the petition was pending, we decided Harper v. Virginia Dept. of Taxation, 509 U. S. 86 (1993), which relied on McKesson in circumstances similar to this case. Accordingly, we re- manded Reich's case to the Georgia Supreme Court for fur- ther consideration in light of Harper. See Reich v. Collins, 509 U. S. 918 (1993). On remand, the Georgia Supreme Court focused on the portion of Harper explaining that, under McKesson, a State is free to provide its "clear and certain" remedy in an exclu- sively predeprivation manner. "[A] meaningful opportunity for taxpayers to withhold contested tax assessments and to challenge their validity in a predeprivation hearing," we said, is " `a procedural safeguard [against unlawful depriva- tions] sufficient by itself to satisfy the Due Process Clause.' " See Harper, supra, at 101, quoting McKesson, supra, at 38, n. 21. The court then reviewed Georgia's predeprivation procedures, found them "ample," and denied Reich's refund claim. Reich v. Collins, 263 Ga. 602, 604, 437 S. E. 2d 320, 322 (1993). Reich again petitioned for certiorari, and we granted the writ, 510 U. S. 1109 (1994), to consider whether it was proper for the Georgia Supreme Court to deny Reich relief on the basis of Georgia's predeprivation remedies. II The Georgia Supreme Court is no doubt right that, under McKesson, Georgia has the flexibility to maintain an ex- clusively predeprivation remedial scheme, so long as that 513us1$$8J 03-28-98 15:12:32 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 106 (1994) 111 Opinion of the Court scheme is "clear and certain." Due process, we should add, also allows the State to maintain an exclusively postdepriva- tion regime, see, e. g., Bob Jones Univ. v. Simon, 416 U. S. 725, 746­748 (1974), or a hybrid regime. A State is free as well to reconfigure its remedial scheme over time, to fit its changing needs. Such choices are generally a matter only of state law. But what a State may not do, and what Georgia did here, is to reconfigure its scheme, unfairly, in mid-course-to "bait and switch," as some have described it. Specifically, in the mid-1980's, Georgia held out what plainly appeared to be a "clear and certain" postdeprivation remedy, in the form of its tax refund statute, and then declared, only after Reich and others had paid the disputed taxes, that no such remedy exists. In this regard, the Georgia Supreme Court's reli- ance on Georgia's predeprivation procedures was entirely be- side the point (and thus error), because even assuming the constitutional adequacy of these procedures-an issue on which we express no view-no reasonable taxpayer would have thought that they represented, in light of the apparent applicability of the refund statute, the exclusive remedy for unlawful taxes. See generally Rakowski, Harper and Its Aftermath, 1 Fla. Tax Rev. 445, 474 (1993). Nor can there be any question that, during the 1980's, prior to Reich I, Georgia did appear to hold out a "clear and certain" postdeprivation remedy. To recall, the Georgia refund statute says that the State "shall" refund "any and all taxes or fees which are determined to have been errone- ously or illegally assessed and collected from [a taxpayer] under the laws of this state, whether paid voluntarily or in- voluntarily . . . ." Ga. Code Ann. § 48­2­35(a) (Supp. 1994) (emphasis added). In our view, the average taxpayer read- ing this language would think it obvious that state taxes assessed in violation of federal law are "illegally assessed" taxes. Certainly the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit thought this conclusion was obvious when, 513us1$$8J 03-28-98 15:12:32 PAGES OPINPGT 112 REICH v. COLLINS Opinion of the Court in a 1986 case, it denied federal court relief to taxpayers raising claims similar to Reich's, in part because it thought Georgia's refund statute applied to the claims. See Waldron v. Collins, 788 F. 2d 736, 738, cert. denied, 479 U. S. 884 (1986). Respondents, moreover, do not point to any Georgia Su- preme Court cases prior to Reich I that put any limiting construction on the statute's sweeping language; indeed, the cases we have found are all entirely consistent with that lan- guage's apparent breadth. See, e. g., Georgia v. Private Truck Council of America, Inc., 258 Ga. 531, 371 S. E. 2d 378 (1988); Henderson v. Carter, 229 Ga. 876, 195 S. E. 2d 4 (1972); Parke, Davis & Co. v. Cook, 198 Ga. 457, 31 S. E. 2d 728 (1944); Wright v. Forrester, 192 Ga. 864, 16 S. E. 2d 873 (1941). Even apart from the statute and the cases, we find it significant that, for obvious reasons, States ordinarily pre- fer that taxpayers pursue only postdeprivation remedies, i. e., that taxpayers "pay first, litigate later." This prefer- ence is significant in that it would seem especially unfair to penalize taxpayers who may have ignored the possibility of pursuing predeprivation remedies out of respect for that preference. In many ways, then, this case bears a remarkable resem- blance to NAACP v. Alabama ex rel. Patterson, 357 U. S. 449 (1958) (Harlan, J.). There, an Alabama trial court held the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in contempt for failing to comply with a discovery order to produce its membership lists, and the Alabama Su- preme Court denied review of the constitutionality of the contempt judgment on the grounds that the organization failed earlier to pursue a mandamus action to quash the un- derlying discovery order. The Court found that the Ala- bama high court's refusal to review the contempt judgment was in error. Prior Alabama law, the Court said, showed "unambiguous[ly]" that judicial review of contempt judg- ments had consistently been available, the existence of man- 513us1$$8J 03-28-98 15:12:32 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 106 (1994) 113 Opinion of the Court damus notwithstanding. Id., at 456. For good measure, the Court also looked at prior Alabama law on mandamus and found nothing "suggest[ing] that mandamus is the ex- clusive remedy" in this situation. Id., at 457 (emphasis in original). Justice Harlan thus concluded: "Novelty in proce- dural requirements cannot be permitted to thwart review in this Court applied for by those who, in justified reliance upon prior decisions, seek vindication in state courts of their federal constitutional rights." Id., at 457­458, citing Brinkerhoff-Faris Trust & Sav. Co. v. Hill, 281 U. S. 673 (1930) (due process violated when state court denied injunc- tion against collection of unlawful taxes on the basis of tax- payer's failure to pursue administrative remedies, where State's prior "settled" law made clear that no such adminis- trative remedies existed); see generally Meltzer, State Court Forfeitures of Federal Rights, 99 Harv. L. Rev. 1128, 1137­ 1139 (1986). Finally, Georgia contends that Reich had no idea (before Davis) that the taxes he was paying throughout the 1980's might be unconstitutional. Even assuming Reich had no idea, however, we are not sure we understand the argument. If the argument is that Reich would not have taken advan- tage of the State's predeprivation remedies no matter how adequate they were (and thus has no standing to complain of those remedies), the argument is beside the point for the same reason that we said that the Georgia Supreme Court's reliance on those remedies was beside the point: Reich was entitled to pursue what appeared to be a "clear and certain" postdeprivation remedy, regardless of the State's predepri- vation remedies. Alternatively, if the argument is that Reich needed to have known of the unconstitutionality of his taxes in order to pursue the State's postdeprivation remedy, the argument is wrong. It is wrong because Georgia's re- fund statute has a relatively lengthy statute of limitations period, and, at least until this case, see Reich I, 262 Ga., at 629, 422 S. E. 2d, at 849, contained no contemporaneous pro- 513us1$$8J 03-28-98 15:12:32 PAGES OPINPGT 114 REICH v. COLLINS Opinion of the Court test requirement. Under such a regime, taxpayers need not have taken any steps to learn of the possible unconstitution- ality of their taxes at the time they paid them. Accordingly, they may not now be put in any worse position for having failed to take such steps. For the reasons stated, the judgment is reversed and the case is remanded for the provision of " `meaningful backward-looking relief,' " Harper, 509 U. S., at 101, quoting McKesson, 496 U. S., at 31, consistent with due process and our McKesson line of cases. See, e. g., Carpenter v. Shaw, 280 U. S. 363 (1930). It is so ordered. 513us1$$9Z 03-28-98 15:13:38 PAGES OPINPGT OCTOBER TERM, 1994 115 Syllabus BROWN, SECRETARY OF VETERANS AFFAIRS v. GARDNER certiorari to the united states court of appeals for the federal circuit No. 93­1128. Argued October 31, 1994-Decided December 12, 1994 After respondent veteran had back surgery in a Department of Veterans Affairs facility for a condition unrelated to his military service, he devel- oped pain and weakness in his left leg, which he alleged was the result of the surgery. He claimed disability benefits under 38 U. S. C. § 1151, which requires the VA to compensate for "an injury, or an aggravation of an injury," that occurs "as the result of" VA treatment. The VA and the Board of Veterans' Appeals denied the claim on the ground that § 1151, as interpreted by 38 CFR § 3.358(c)(3), only covers an injury if it resulted from negligent treatment by the VA or an accident occurring during treatment. The Court of Veterans Appeals reversed, holding that § 1151 neither imposes nor authorizes adoption of § 3.358(c)(3)'s fault-or-accident requirement. The Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed. Held: Section 3.358(c)(3) is not consistent with the plain language of § 1151, which contains not a word about fault-or-accident. The statutory text and reasonable inferences from it give a clear answer against the Gov- ernment's arguments that a fault requirement is implicit in the terms "injury" and "as a result of." This clear textually grounded conclusion is also fatal to the Government's remaining principal arguments: that Congress ratified the VA's practice of requiring a showing of fault when it reenacted the predecessor of § 1151 in 1934, or, alternatively, that the post-1934 legislative silence serves as an implicit endorsement of the fault-based policy; and that the policy deserves judicial deference due to its undisturbed endurance. Pp. 117­122. 5 F. 3d 1456, affirmed. Souter, J., delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court. Edward C. DuMont argued the cause for petitioner.

GARDNER Opinion of the Court Joseph M. Hannon, Jr., argued the cause for respondent. With him on the briefs was William S. Mailander.* Justice Souter delivered the opinion of the Court. In this case we decide whether a regulation of the Depart- ment of Veterans Affairs, 38 CFR § 3.358(c)(3) (1993), requir- ing a claimant for certain veterans' benefits to prove that disability resulted from negligent treatment by the VA or an accident occurring during treatment, is consistent with the controlling statute, 38 U. S. C. § 1151 (1988 ed., Supp. V). We hold that it is not. I Fred P. Gardner, a veteran of the Korean conflict, received surgical treatment in a VA facility for a herniated disc unre- lated to his prior military service. Gardner then had pain and weakness in his left calf, ankle, and foot, which he al- leged was the result of the surgery. He claimed disability benefits under § 1151,1 which provides that the VA will com- pensate for "an injury, or an aggravation of an injury," that occurs "as the result of hospitalization, medical or surgical treatment, or the pursuit of a course of vocational rehabilita- tion" provided under any of the laws administered by the VA, so long as the injury was "not the result of such veter- an's own willful misconduct . . . ." The VA and the Board *Briefs of amici curiae urging affirmance were filed for the State of Texas by Dan Morales, Attorney General, and Jorge Vega, First Assistant Attorney General; for the National Veterans Legal Services Project by Ronald S. Flagg and Gershon M. Ratner; and for the Paralyzed Veterans of America et al. by Robert L. Nelson, Lawrence B. Hagel, and Irving R. M. Panzer. 1 Section 1151 is invoked typically to provide benefits to veterans for nonservice related disabilities, although it is not so limited by its terms. See Pet. for Cert. 6, n. 3. The statute's history begins in 1924 when Con- gress enacted § 213 of the World War Veterans' Act, 1924, ch. 320, 43 Stat. 623. Section 213 was repealed in 1933, as part of the Economy Act of 1933, ch. 3, Tit. I, § 17, 48 Stat. 11­12, and reenacted in nearly the same form in 1934, Act of Mar. 28, 1934, ch. 102, Tit. III, § 31, 48 Stat. 526. 513us1$$9M 03-28-98 15:13:39 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 115 (1994) 117 Opinion of the Court of Veterans' Appeals denied Gardner's claim for benefits, on the ground that § 1151, as interpreted by 38 CFR § 3.358(c)(3) (1993), only covers an injury if it "proximately resulted [from] carelessness, negligence, lack of proper skill, error in judgment, or similar instances of indicated fault" on the part of the VA, or from the occurrence during treatment or rehabilitation of an "accident," defined as an "unforeseen, untoward" event. The Court of Veterans Appeals reversed, holding that § 1151 neither imposes nor authorizes adoption of the fault-or-accident requirement set out in § 3.358(c)(3), Gardner v. Derwinski, 1 Vet. App. 584 (1991), and the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed, 5 F. 3d 1456 (1993). We granted certiorari, 511 U. S. 1017, and now affirm. II Despite the absence from the statutory language of so much as a word about fault 2 on the part of the VA, the Gov- ernment proposes two interpretations in attempting to re- veal a fault requirement implicit in the text of § 1151, the first being that fault inheres in the concept of compensable "injury." We think that no such inference can be drawn in this instance, however. Even though "injury" can of course carry a fault connotation, see Webster's New International Dictionary 1280 (2d ed. 1957) (an "actionable wrong"), it just as certainly need not do so, see ibid. ("[d]amage or hurt done to or suffered by a person or thing"). The most, then, that the Government could claim on the basis of this term is the existence of an ambiguity to be resolved in favor of a fault requirement (assuming that such a resolution would be possi- 2 "Fault" is shorthand for fault-or-accident, the test imposed by the regu- lation. Section 3.358(c)(3) leaves the additional burden imposed by the "accident" requirement unclear, defining the term to mean simply an "un- foreseen, untoward" event. Although the appropriate scope of the "acci- dent" requirement is not before us, on one plausible reading of the regula- tion some burden additional to the statutory obligation would be imposed as an alternative to fault. 513us1$$9M 03-28-98 15:13:39 PAGES OPINPGT 118 BROWN v. GARDNER Opinion of the Court ble after applying the rule that interpretive doubt is to be resolved in the veteran's favor, see King v. St. Vincent's Hospital, 502 U. S. 215, 220­221, n. 9 (1991)). But the Gov- ernment cannot plausibly make even this claim here. Am- biguity is a creature not of definitional possibilities but of statutory context, see id., at 221 ("[T]he meaning of statu- tory language, plain or not, depends on context"), and this context negates a fault reading. Section 1151 provides com- pensability not only for an "injury," but for an "aggravation of an injury" as well. "Injury" as used in this latter phrase refers to a condition prior to the treatment in question, and hence cannot carry with it any suggestion of fault attribut- able to the VA in causing it. Since there is a presumption that a given term is used to mean the same thing throughout a statute, Atlantic Cleaners & Dyers, Inc. v. United States, 286 U. S. 427, 433 (1932), a presumption surely at its most vigorous when a term is repeated within a given sentence, it is virtually impossible to read "injury" as laden with fault in the sentence quoted. Textual cross-reference confirms this conclusion. "In- jury" is employed elsewhere in the veterans' benefits stat- utes as an instance of the neutral term "disability," appear- ing within a series whose other terms exemplify debility free from any fault connotation. See 38 U. S. C. § 1701(1) (1988 ed., Supp. V) ("The term `disability' means a disease, injury, or other physical or mental defect"). The serial treatment thus indicates that the same fault-free sense should be at- tributed to the term "injury" itself. Jarecki v. G. D. Searle & Co., 367 U. S. 303, 307 (1961) ("[A] word is known by the company it keeps"). Moreover, in analogous statutes dealing with service-connected injuries the term "injury" is again used without any suggestion of fault, as the adminis- trative regulation applicable to these statutes confirms by its failure to impose any fault requirement. Compare 38 U. S. C. § 1110 (1988 ed., Supp. V) ("disability resulting from personal injury suffered or disease contracted in line of duty, 513us1$$9M 03-28-98 15:13:39 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 115 (1994) 119 Opinion of the Court or for aggravation of a preexisting injury suffered or disease contracted in line of duty, . . . during a period of war," is compensable) and 38 U. S. C. § 1131 (1988 ed., Supp. V) ("dis- ability resulting from personal injury suffered or disease contracted in line of duty, or for aggravation of a preexisting injury suffered or disease contracted in line of duty, . . . dur- ing other than a period of war," is compensable) with 38 CFR § 3.310(a) (1993) ("Disability which is proximately due to or the result of a service-connected disease or injury shall be service connected. When service connection is thus estab- lished for a secondary condition, the secondary condition shall be considered a part of the original condition"). In a second attempt to impose a VA-fault requirement, the Government suggests that the "as a result of" language of § 1151 signifies a proximate cause requirement that incorpo- rates a fault test. Once again, we find the suggestion im- plausible. This language is naturally read simply to impose the requirement of a causal connection between the "injury" or "aggravation of an injury" and "hospitalization, medical or surgical treatment, or the pursuit of a course of vocational rehabilitation." Assuming that the connection is limited to proximate causation so as to narrow the class of compensable cases, that narrowing occurs by eliminating remote conse- quences, not by requiring a demonstration of fault.3 See generally W. Keeton, D. Dobbs, R. Keeton, & D. Owen, Pros- ser and Keeton on Law of Torts § 42 (5th ed. 1984). The eccentricity of reading a fault requirement into the "result 3 We do not, of course, intend to cast any doubt on the regulations inso- far as they exclude coverage for incidents of a disease's or injury's natu- ral progression, occurring after the date of treatment. See 38 CFR § 3.358(b)(2) (1993). VA action is not the cause of the disability in these situations. Nor do we intend to exclude application of the doctrine vo- lenti non fit injuria. See generally M. Bigelow, Law of Torts 39­43 (8th ed. 1907). It would be unreasonable, for example, to believe that Con- gress intended to compensate veterans for the necessary consequences of treatment to which they consented (i. e., compensating a veteran who con- sents to the amputation of a gangrenous limb for the loss of the limb). 513us1$$9M 03-28-98 15:13:39 PAGES OPINPGT 120 BROWN v. GARDNER Opinion of the Court of" language is underscored by the incongruity of applying it to the fourth category for which compensation is available under § 1151, cases of injury resulting from a veteran's "pur- suit of vocational rehabilitation." If Congress had meant to require a showing of VA fault, it would have been odd to refer to "the pursuit [by the veteran] of vocational rehabilita- tion" rather than to "the provision [by the VA] of voca- tional rehabilitation." The poor fit of this language with any implicit requirement of VA fault is made all the more obvious by the statute's express treatment of a claimant's fault. The same sentence of § 1151 that contains the terms "injury" and "as a result of" restricts compensation to those whose additional disabil- ity was not the result of their "own willful misconduct." This reference to claimant's fault in a statute keeping silent about any fault on the VA's part invokes the rule that "[w]here Congress includes particular language in one sec- tion of a statute but omits it in another section of the same Act, it is generally presumed that Congress acts intention- ally and purposely in the disparate inclusion or exclusion." Russello v. United States, 464 U. S. 16, 23 (1983) (internal quotation marks omitted). Without some mention of the VA's fault, it would be unreasonable to read the text of § 1151 as imposing a burden of demonstrating it upon seeking com- pensation for a further disability. In sum, the text and reasonable inferences from it give a clear answer against the Government, and that, as we have said, is " `the end of the matter.' " Good Samaritan Hospi- tal v. Shalala, 508 U. S. 402, 409 (1993) (quoting Chevron U. S. A. Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc., 467 U. S. 837, 842 (1984)). Thus this clear textually grounded conclusion in Gardner's favor is fatal to the remaining princi- pal arguments advanced against it. The Government contends that Congress ratified the VA's practice of requiring a showing of fault when it reenacted the predecessor of § 1151 in 1934, or, alternatively, that Con- 513us1$$9M 03-28-98 15:13:39 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 115 (1994) 121 Opinion of the Court gress's legislative silence as to the VA's regulatory practice over the last 60 years serves as an implicit endorsement of its fault-based policy. There is an obvious trump to the re- enactment argument, however, in the rule that "[w]here the law is plain, subsequent reenactment does not constitute an adoption of a previous administrative construction." Dema- rest v. Manspeaker, 498 U. S. 184, 190 (1991). See also Mas- sachusetts Trustees of Eastern Gas & Fuel Associates v. United States, 377 U. S. 235, 241­242 (1964) (congressional reenactment has no interpretive effect where regulations clearly contradict requirements of statute). But even with- out this sensible rule, the reenactment would not carry the day. Setting aside the disputed question whether the VA used a fault rule in 1934,4 the record of congressional discus- sion preceding reenactment makes no reference to the VA regulation, and there is no other evidence to suggest that Congress was even aware of the VA's interpretive position. "In such circumstances we consider the . . . re-enactment to be without significance." United States v. Calamaro, 354 U. S. 351, 359 (1957). Congress's post-1934 legislative silence on the VA's fault approach to § 1151 is likewise unavailing to the Government. As we have recently made clear, congressional silence " `lacks persuasive significance,' " Central Bank of Denver, N. A. v. First Interstate Bank of Denver, N. A., 511 U. S. 164, 187 (1994) (quoting Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation v. LTV Corp., 496 U. S. 633, 650 (1990)), particularly where administrative regulations are inconsistent with the control- ling statute, see Patterson v. McLean Credit Union, 491 U. S. 164, 175, n. 1 (1989) ("Congressional inaction cannot amend a duly enacted statute"). See also Zuber v. Allen, 396 U. S. 168, 185­186, n. 21 (1969) ("The verdict of quiescent years cannot be invoked to baptize a statutory gloss that is 4 At the time of the 1934 reenactment, the regulation in effect precluded compensation for the " `usual after[-]results of approved medical care and treatment properly administered.'

Congressional inaction fre- quently betokens unawareness, preoccupation, or paralysis"). Finally, we dispose of the Government's argument that the VA's regulatory interpretation of § 1151 deserves judicial deference due to its undisturbed endurance for 60 years. A regulation's age is no antidote to clear inconsistency with a statute, and the fact, again, that § 3.358(c)(3) flies against the plain language of the statutory text exempts courts from any obligation to defer to it. Dole v. Steelworkers, 494 U. S. 26, 42­43 (1990); Chevron U. S. A. Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc., supra, at 842­843. But even if this were a close case, where consistent application and age can enhance the force of administrative interpretation, see Ze- nith Radio Corp. v. United States, 437 U. S. 443, 450 (1978), the Government's position would suffer from the further fac- tual embarrassment that Congress established no judicial re- view for VA decisions until 1988, only then removing the VA from what one congressional Report spoke of as the agency's "splendid isolation." H. R. Rep. No. 100­963, pt. 1, p. 10 (1988). As the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit aptly stated: "Many VA regulations have aged nicely simply because Congress took so long to provide for judicial review. The length of such regulations' unscrutinized and unscruti- nizable existence" could not alone, therefore, enhance any claim to deference. 5 F. 3d, at 1463­1464. III Accordingly, the judgment of the Court of Appeals is affirmed. It is so ordered. 513us1$10Z 03-28-98 15:16:33 PAGES OPINPGT OCTOBER TERM, 1994 123 Syllabus NEBRASKA DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE v.

In such a transaction, the party holding the securities (Seller-Borrower) transfers them to the Trusts in return for a specified amount of cash. At a later date, the Trusts deliver the securities back to the Seller-Borrower, who credits to the Trusts an amount equal to the cash transfer plus interest at an agreed-upon rate that bears no relation to the yield on the underlying securities. Ultimately, the Trusts' interest income is distributed to re- spondent in proportion to his shares in the Trusts. After petitioner issued a Revenue Ruling concluding that interest income from repos is subject to Nebraska's income tax, respondent brought this declaratory judgment action in state court, asking that the Revenue Ruling be de- clared invalid as contrary to the Supremacy Clause and to 31 U. S. C. § 3124(a), which, in relevant part, exempts from state taxation interest on "obligations of the United States Government." The court granted the relief, and the Nebraska Supreme Court affirmed. Held:1. Nebraska's taxation of the income respondent derived from the repos does not violate § 3124(a). Pp. 128­135. (a) For purposes of § 3124(a), the interest income earned by the Trusts is interest on loans from the Trusts to the Seller-Borrower, not interest on federal securities; in this context, the securities are merely collateral for these loans. Several features of the repos lead to this conclusion: (1) at a repo's commencement, the Trusts pay the Seller- Borrower a fixed sum of money, which is repaid with interest at a rate bearing no relation to either the coupon interest paid or discount inter- est accrued on the federal securities during the term of the repo; (2) the Trusts may liquidate the securities should the Seller-Borrower default on the debt, but, like a lender, they must pay to the Seller-Borrower any proceeds in excess of the amount of the debt plus expenses, and may recover any deficiency from the Seller-Borrower; (3) the market value of the securities must be maintained at 102% of the original pay- ment amount, with the Seller-Borrower delivering cash or additional securities if the value falls below 102%, and the Trusts returning securi- 513us1$10Z 03-28-98 15:16:33 PAGES OPINPGT 124 NEBRASKA DEPT. OF REVENUE v. LOEWENSTEIN Syllabus ties if the value exceeds 102%; and (4) the Seller-Borrower may, during the term of the repo, substitute federal securities of equal market value for the securities initially involved in the transaction. The fact that the Trusts take "delivery" of the federal securities at the repo's commence- ment also is consistent with understanding the repos as loans, since "delivery" perfects the Trusts' security interests in their collateral. Pp. 128­133. (b) Respondent's two objections to this interpretation of § 3124(a) are unpersuasive. It does not matter that the Trusts and Seller- Borrower characterize the repos as sales and repurchases, since the sub- stance and economic realities of the transactions show that the Trusts receive interest on cash they have lent to the Seller-Borrower. Cf. Frank Lyon Co. v. United States, 435 U. S. 561, 582. And, contrary to respondent's argument, this case does not involve the construction or va- lidity of the Nebraska income tax statute's add-back rule. Pp. 133­135. 2. Nebraska's taxation of income from repos involving federal securi- ties does not violate the Supremacy Clause. Respondent has pointed to no statute, revenue ruling, or other manifestation of Nebraska policy that treats "state" repos differently from "federal" repos for tax pur- poses. Nor does the taxation at issue make it more difficult and expen- sive for the Federal Government to finance the national debt. Expert testimony referred to by respondent has no relevance to this case, and respondent has shown no "obvious and appreciable" injury to the Gov- ernment's borrowing power as a result of Nebraska's taxation of the Trusts' repo income, see Rockford Life Ins.

S. 123 (1994) 125 Opinion of the Court Justice Thomas delivered the opinion of the Court. We took this case to decide whether States may tax inter- est income derived from repurchase agreements involving federal securities. If the income that taxpayers earn by participating in such agreements constitutes interest on federal securities, then the taxation violates 31 U. S. C. § 3124(a), which exempts interest on "obligations of the United States Government" from taxation by States. On the other hand, if that income constitutes interest on loans to a private party, the taxation is not prohibited by the statute. With respect to the repurchase agreements at issue in this case, we conclude that for purposes of § 3124(a), the interest earned by taxpayers is interest on loans to a private party, not interest on federal securities. Accordingly, we hold that § 3124(a) does not prohibit States from taxing such income. I Respondent is a Nebraska resident who owns shares in two mutual funds, the Trust for Short-Term U. S.

LOEWENSTEIN Opinion of the Court cies (federal securities). A typical repurchase agreement used by the Trusts, see App. 65­81, establishes a two-part transaction, commonly called a "repo," between a party who holds federal securities and seeks cash (Seller-Borrower) and a party who has available cash and seeks to earn interest on its idle funds (in this case, the Trusts). In part one of the repo, the Seller-Borrower "transfers" specified federal secu- rities to the Trusts on the records of the Federal Reserve System's commercial book-entry system. Simultaneously, the Trusts transfer a specified amount of cash to the Seller- Borrower's bank account. In part two of the transaction-which occurs at a later date fixed by agreement or, in the absence of any agreement, upon demand of either party-the Trusts "deliver" the fed- eral securities back to the Seller-Borrower on the Federal Reserve's records, and the Seller-Borrower credits the Trusts' bank account in an amount equal to the sum of the original cash transfer plus "interest" at an agreed-upon rate. This interest rate bears no relation to the yield on the under- lying federal securities-either when they were issued by the United States Government or when they later came into the hands of the Seller-Borrower-but is based instead on the current market rate paid on investments with maturities equal to the term of the repo, not to the original or current maturities of the underlying securities.1 After deducting administrative costs, the Trusts distribute this interest income to respondent in proportion to his own- ership of shares in the Trusts. The State of Nebraska gen- erally taxes interest income, but it does not tax "interest or dividends received by the owner of obligations of the United 1 A repurchase agreement is so called because the parties to the agree- ment identify part one of the transaction as a "sale" of federal securities from the Seller-Borrower to the Trusts and part two a "repurchase" of the securities by the Seller-Borrower from the Trusts. Because the accu- racy of these labels is part of the dispute in this case, we use more neutral terms to describe the transaction. 513us1$10N 03-28-98 15:16:33 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

The Internal Revenue Service also has concluded that a taxpayer in the position of the Trusts who derives interest income by participating in repurchase agreements does not earn interest on the securities involved in those agreements. See Rev. Rul. 74­27, 1974­1 Cum. Bull. 24; Rev. Rul. 77­59, 1977­1 Cum. Bull. 196; Rev. Rul. 79­108, 1979­1 Cum. Bull. 75. 513us1$10N 03-28-98 15:16:33 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 123 (1994) 129 Opinion of the Court can Bank & Trust Co. v. Dallas County, 463 U. S. 855, 862 (1983), in computing the taxable value of a taxpayer's assets or net worth for the purpose of a property tax or the like. See, e. g., First Nat. Bank of Atlanta v. Bartow County Bd. of Tax Assessors, 470 U. S. 583, 585­586 (1985) (property tax on bank shares). By contrast, the interest on the obligation is "considered" when that interest is included in computing the taxpayer's net income or earnings for the purpose of an income tax or the like. See, e. g., Memphis Bank & Trust Co. v. Garner, 459 U. S. 392, 393­394 (1983) (tax on net earn- ings of banks). By participating in repos involving federal securities, the Trusts (and thus respondent) earned interest income, and Nebraska's income tax admittedly considered that interest in computing respondent's taxable income. We must decide whether for purposes of § 3124(a) the interest earned by the Trusts from these repos is interest on "obligations of the United States Government" or interest on loans of cash from the Trusts to the Seller-Borrower. We conclude that it is the latter, and we accordingly hold that Nebraska's taxation of the income derived by respondent from the repos does not violate § 3124(a). An investor may earn interest income from a federal secu- rity in one or both of two ways. First, the investor may receive periodic payments from the United States Govern- ment at the interest rate stated on the face of the security. Such payments are traditionally known as "coupon interest." Second, the investor may acquire the security at a discount from the amount for which it will ultimately be redeemed by the Government at maturity. This discount is also consid- ered interest for purposes of taxation.4 Although "discount 4 For example, Treasury notes and bonds, which have maturities of at least one year, pay coupon interest on a semiannual basis and may be issued at discount, par (face amount), or premium, depending on market conditions. See 31 CFR §§ 356.5(b), (c), 356.30 (1994). Treasury bills, by contrast, have maturities of not more than one year, pay no coupon inter- est, and are always issued at a discount. See § 356.5(a). "For purposes 513us1$10N 03-28-98 15:16:33 PAGES OPINPGT 130 NEBRASKA DEPT. OF REVENUE v. LOEWENSTEIN Opinion of the Court interest" accrues during the term of the security, the inves- tor does not receive it in cash until the security is redeemed or transferred to a third party. Our examination of the typical repurchase agreement used by the Trusts convinces us that they did not earn either kind of interest on federal securities. Certainly, none of the in- come the Trusts earn by participating in repos can be attrib- uted to redemptions of the securities or payments of coupon interest by the Government: The Trusts must "pay over to [the Seller-Borrower] as soon as received all principal, in- terest and other sums paid by or on behalf of the issuer in respect of the Securities and collected by the [Trusts]." App. 69. Nor can we conclude that the Trusts receive discount in- terest when the federal securities are transferred back to the Seller-Borrower in part two of the repo. Under the typical repurchase agreement, any individual repo transaction may involve a mix of federal securities with varying maturities, and therefore varying yields. During the term of the repo, these securities earn discount interest based on their respec- tive yields (and on whether they pay coupon interest). The Trusts, however, earn interest from the Seller-Borrower at an agreed-upon rate that is not based on any of these yields, or any combination of them. Thus, the interest that the Trusts earn by participating in the repo will bear no relation to the discount interest earned on federal securities during the same period. We conclude instead that for purposes of § 3124(a), the in- terest income earned by the Trusts is interest on loans from the Trusts to the Seller-Borrower, and that the federal secu- rities are involved in the repo transactions as collateral for of taxation the amount of discount at which Treasury bills are originally sold by the United States shall be considered to be interest." § 309.4. See generally M. Stigum, The Money Market 36­37 (3d ed. 1990) (herein- after Stigum). 513us1$10N 03-28-98 15:16:33 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 123 (1994) 131 Opinion of the Court these loans. Several features of the repos lead to this con- clusion. First, at the commencement of a repo, the Trusts pay the Seller-Borrower a fixed sum of money; at the repo's termination, the Seller-Borrower repays that sum with "in- terest." As explained above, this repo interest bears no relation to either the coupon interest paid or the discount interest accrued on the federal securities during the term of the repo. Second, if the Seller-Borrower defaults on its obligation to pay its debt, the Trusts may liquidate the federal securities. But like any lender who liquidates collateral, the Trusts may retain the proceeds of liquidation only up to the amount of the debt plus expenses; any excess must be paid to the Seller-Borrower. Moreover, if the proceeds are insufficient to satisfy the debt, the Trusts may recover the deficiency from the Seller-Borrower. Third, if the market value of the federal securities involved in the repo falls below 102% of the amount the Trusts origi- nally paid to the Seller-Borrower, the latter must immedi- ately deliver cash or additional securities to the Trusts to restore the value of the securities held by the Trusts to 102% of the original payment amount. On the other hand, if the market value of the securities rises above 102% of this amount, the Seller-Borrower may require the Trusts to re- turn some of the securities to the Seller-Borrower. These provisions are consistent with a lender-borrower relationship in which a prudent lender desires to protect the value of its collateral, while a prudent borrower attempts to pledge as little collateral as possible. Fourth, the Seller-Borrower may, during the term of the repo, "substitute" federal securities of equal market value for the federal securities initially involved in the transaction. A lender, of course, is indifferent to the particular collateral pledged by the borrower, so long as that collateral has suffi- cient value and liquidity. 513us1$10N 03-28-98 15:16:33 PAGES OPINPGT 132 NEBRASKA DEPT. OF REVENUE v. LOEWENSTEIN Opinion of the Court The parties have stipulated that the Trusts (or their agents) take "Delivery" of the federal securities at the com- mencement of a repo. App. 63. But even this fact is con- sistent with understanding repos as loans of cash from the Trusts to the Seller-Borrower: "Delivery" of the securities perfects the Trusts' security interests in their collateral. Under the most recent version of § 8­321(1) of the Uniform Commercial Code (U. C. C.), "[a] security interest in a secu- rity is enforceable and can attach only if it is transferred to the secured party . . . pursuant to a provision of [§] 8­313(1)." 2C U. L. A. 459 (1991). Section 8­313(1)(a) provides that transfer of a security interest in a security occurs when the secured party "acquires possession of a certificated secu- rity." 5 Id., at 402. Of course, possession of the federal securities allows the Trusts to effect an expeditious, nonjudi- cial liquidation of the securities if the Seller-Borrower de- faults. Cf. U. C. C. § 9­504(1), 3B U. L. A. 127 (1992). The ability to liquidate immediately is obviously critical in the context of repo transactions, which may have a lifespan of only a single day. Based on the foregoing analysis, we conclude that the in- terest income earned by the Trusts from repurchase agree- ments involving federal securities is not interest on "obliga- tions of the United States Government." For purposes of 31 U. S. C. § 3124(a), the income is instead interest on loans from the Trusts to the Seller-Borrower. Because § 3124(a) exempts only the former type of interest from state taxation, 5 The parties have also stipulated that delivery of the federal securities is effected "through the Federal Reserve book entry system." App. 63. Although securities held in that system exist not in the form of certificates but only as entries in the records of a Federal Reserve bank, see generally Stigum 636­638, regulations issued by the Treasury Department and other federal agencies indulge in the fiction that transferees acquire pos- session of certificated securities. See, e. g., 31 CFR § 306.118(a) (1994) (transfer of Treasury notes and bonds); § 350.4(a) (transfer of Treasury bills). Of course, these regulations and their relationship to the U. C. C. are not before us here. 513us1$10N 03-28-98 15:16:33 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 123 (1994) 133 Opinion of the Court Nebraska did not violate that statute when it taxed respond- ent's interest income.6 III Respondent offers two objections to this interpretation of § 3124(a). We find neither of them persuasive. A The typical repurchase agreement at issue in this case ex- plicitly identifies the original transfer of the federal securi- ties to the Trusts as a "sale" and the subsequent transfer back to the Seller-Borrower as a "repurchase." Respondent maintains we should honor this characterization because the repos were structured by the Trusts and the Seller- Borrower as sales and repurchases for valid business and regulatory reasons independent of tax considerations. Re- spondent relies on our statement in Frank Lyon Co. v. United States, 435 U. S. 561, 583­584 (1978): "[W]here . . . there is a genuine multiple-party trans- action with economic substance which is compelled or encouraged by business or regulatory realities, is im- bued with tax-independent considerations, and is not shaped solely by tax-avoidance features that have mean- ingless labels attached, the Government should honor the allocation of rights and duties effectuated by the parties." We do not believe it matters for purposes of § 3124(a) whether the repo is characterized as a sale and subsequent repurchase. A sale-repurchase characterization presumably would make the Trusts the "owners" of the federal securities 6 It follows from our analysis that it is the Seller-Borrower who earns the interest on the federal securities during the pendency of the repo. Nebraska Revenue Ruling 22­85­1 concludes as much: "The interest earned on the United States government obligations remains the income of the [party] who submitted the securities as collateral for the loan." Brief for Petitioner 4­5, n. 1. 513us1$10N 03-28-98 15:16:33 PAGES OPINPGT 134 NEBRASKA DEPT. OF REVENUE v. LOEWENSTEIN Opinion of the Court during the term of the repo. But the dispositive question is whether the Trusts earned interest on "obligations of the United States Government," not whether the Trusts "owned" such obligations. As respondent himself concedes, "[t]he concept of `ownership' is simply not an issue under 31 U. S. C. § 3124." Brief for Respondent 10. Even if it did matter how repos were characterized for purposes of § 3124(a), Frank Lyon Co. does not support re- spondent's position. Whatever the language relied on by re- spondent may mean, our decision in that case to honor the taxpayer's characterization of its transaction as a "sale-and- leaseback" rather than a "financing transaction" was founded on an examination of "the substance and economic realities of the transaction." 435 U. S., at 582. This examination in- cluded identification of 27 specific facts. See id., at 582­583. The substance and economic realities of the Trusts' repo transactions, as manifested in the specific facts discussed above, are that the Trusts do not receive either coupon inter- est or discount interest from federal securities by participat- ing in repos. Rather, in economic reality, the Trusts receive interest on cash they have lent to the Seller-Borrower. Respondent does not specifically dispute this conclusion but argues that repos are characterized as ordinary sales and repurchases for purposes of federal securities, bankruptcy, and banking law as well as commercial and local government law. We need not examine the accuracy of these assertions, for we are not called upon in this case to interpret any of those bodies of law. Our decision today is an interpretation only of 31 U. S. C. § 3124(a)-not the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Bankruptcy Code, or any other body of law. B At oral argument, respondent advanced another argument against the interpretation of § 3124(a) adopted here: Al- though petitioner's Revenue Ruling nominally acknowledges the right of the Seller-Borrower to claim the exemption granted by § 3124(a), Nebraska's income tax scheme will not 513us1$10N 03-28-98 15:16:33 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 123 (1994) 135 Opinion of the Court allow the Seller-Borrower to realize the full amount of the federal exemption. This would allegedly frustrate Con- gress' purpose in granting the exemption. According to re- spondent, after the Seller-Borrower has subtracted from its taxable income any "interest or dividends received by [it as] the owner of obligations of the United States," pursuant to subsection (a) of Neb. Rev. Stat. § 77­2716(1) (Supp. 1994), it will then be forced to add back "any interest on indebtedness incurred to carry the [federal] obligations," pursuant to sub- section (e)(i) of § 77­2716(1). Respondent conjectures that the interest paid by the Seller-Borrower to the Trusts in the course of repos may constitute just such interest. Respond- ent therefore hypothesizes that if the Seller-Borrower re- ceives, for example, $100 in interest as the holder of federal securities and pays out $90 to the Trusts in the course of repos involving those securities, Nebraska might give the Seller-Borrower an income tax exemption worth only $10 ($100 minus $90), rather than the $100 exemption that Con- gress arguably intended. There is a short answer to respondent's multilayered hypothesis: this case does not involve the construction or validity of Nebraska's add-back rule as applied in the repo context. The Nebraska Supreme Court did not cite § 77­ 2716(1)(e)(i) in its opinion, and we did not grant certiorari to consider that provision. IV Finally, respondent argues that Nebraska's taxation of income from repos involving federal securities violates the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution. First, respondent contends that Nebraska discriminates against federal ob- ligations because it does not tax income from repos involv- ing Nebraska's own state and local obligations. Although Nebraska Revenue Ruling 22­85­1 concerns repos involving "federal government obligations" and does not mention their Nebraska counterparts, respondent has pointed to no stat- ute, revenue ruling, or other manifestation of Nebraska pol- 513us1$10N 03-28-98 15:16:33 PAGES OPINPGT 136 NEBRASKA DEPT. OF REVENUE v. LOEWENSTEIN Opinion of the Court icy treating "state" repos any different from "federal" repos for tax purposes. Second, respondent cites our decision in Rockford Life Ins. Co. v. Illinois Dept. of Revenue, 482 U. S. 182, 190 (1987), in which we stated that "the intergovernmental tax immunity doctrine . . . is based on the proposition that the borrowing power is an essential aspect of the Federal Government's au- thority and, just as the Supremacy Clause bars the States from directly taxing federal property, it also bars the States from taxing federal obligations in a manner which has an adverse effect on the United States' borrowing ability." Ac- cording to respondent, undisputed expert testimony in the record establishes that the taxation at issue in this case will make it more difficult and expensive for the Federal Govern- ment to finance the national debt. This expert testimony essentially consists of a 1986 affi- davit sworn by Peter D. Sternlight, a former official of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. In our view, Stern- light's affidavit has no relevance to this case. It concluded only that "an impairment of the repo market would make it less attractive for [government securities] dealers to perform [their] very useful . . . function [of underwriting a sizeable portion of Treasury securities], thus adding to Treasury in- terest costs." App. 42. But the "impairment" that worried Sternlight would result "[i]f repurchase agreements were to lose their present characteristics of flexibility and liquidity," or if repos became "unavailable" to certain kinds of public and private institutional investors. Id., at 42, 43. These possibilities might develop if repos were to be characterized as secured loans for purposes of federal bankruptcy and banking law or of commercial and local government law. Our decision today, however, says nothing about how repos should be characterized for those purposes.7 7 See also Brief for Federal Reserve Bank of New York as Amicus Cu- riae 9­10 ("The Sternlight Affidavit was filed by the New York Fed in 1986 as amicus curiae in [a case] which had nothing to do with state 513us1$10N 03-28-98 15:16:33 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

Rockford Life confirmed the rule that " `when effort is made . . . to establish the unconstitutional character of a particular tax by claiming its remote effect will be to impair the borrowing power of the government, courts . . . ought to have some- thing more substantial to act upon than mere conjecture. The injury ought to be obvious and appreciable.' " 482 U. S., at 190, n. 10 (quoting Plummer v. Coler, 178 U. S. 115, 137­ 138 (1900)). Respondent has shown us no "obvious and appreciable" injury to the borrowing power of the United States Government as a result of Nebraska's taxation of the repo income earned by the Trusts. Rather, he has given us "mere conjecture." In these circumstances, we cannot justifiably conclude that Nebraska's taxation of income de- rived from repos involving federal securities violates the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution. For the foregoing reasons, the judgment of the Supreme Court of Nebraska is reversed, and the case is remanded for further proceedings not inconsistent with this opinion.

TRANSCON LINES et al. certiorari to the united states court of appeals for the ninth circuit No. 93­1318. Argued November 1, 1994-Decided January 10, 1995 The Interstate Commerce Act grants petitioner Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) authority to set the exclusive means by which com- mon carriers extend credit to shippers. Under the ICC's regulations, credit may be extended for periods of up to 30 days, and, if shippers fail to pay, carriers may assess interest charges and liquidated damages to cover collection costs. In this suit to enjoin the trustee in bankruptcy appointed for respondent motor carrier, Transcon Lines, from collecting liquidated damages from Transcon's former customers, the ICC asserted that Transcon had violated three of the credit regulations' procedural requirements: Its bills did not advise shippers of the consequences of late payment; revised bills were not issued within 90 days after the expiration of the authorized credit period; and damages were applied by a bankruptcy trustee on an aggregate basis. The District Court granted summary judgment for respondents, and the Court of Appeals affirmed in relevant part, holding that the filed rate doctrine and this Court's decision in Maislin Industries, U. S., Inc. v. Primary Steel, Inc., 497 U. S. 116, barred the ICC from enforcing its credit regulations in a manner that would prevent collection of a filed rate. On remand from this Court, the Court of Appeals adhered to that determination. Held: The filed rate doctrine does not bar the injunction the ICC seeks. The Act grants the ICC broad authority to bring civil actions to enforce the statute and regulations or orders issued under it. This Court has specified that seeking a federal-court injunction to require a carrier to comply with the regulations is such an enforcement power. Southern Pacific Transp. Co. v. Commercial Metals Co., 456 U. S. 336, 352, 349. Although not without limits, the ICC's judgment that a particular rem- edy is an appropriate exercise of its enforcement authority is entitled to some deference. Two substantial reasons support the conclusion that the remedy chosen in this case is appropriate. First, it is necessary to the effective enforcement of the ICC's regulations. Should the injunc- tion be disallowed, trustees of bankrupt carriers would be immune, in effect, from enforcement of the credit regulations. Second, the remedy serves the intended beneficiaries of the violated regulations: shippers, whom the regulations protect from the imposition of penalties without 513us1$11Z 04-04-98 13:50:07 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 138 (1995) 139 Opinion of the Court warning. Id., at 345­346, distinguished. Neither Maislin nor this Court's other filed rate cases suggest that the doctrine prohibits the ICC from requiring departure from a filed rate when necessary to en- force other specific and valid regulations adopted under the Act. Con- trary to respondents' contention, the ICC is not seeking to enforce a secret, unfiled rate in place of a filed rate, but is seeking to enforce the rate for shipping over the rate for shipping plus collection efforts. Pp. 144­149. 9 F. 3d 64, reversed and remanded. Kennedy, J., delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court. Deputy Solicitor General Wallace argued the cause for petitioner.

TRANSCON LINES Opinion of the Court their bearing on the authority of the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) to enforce related provisions of the Act and regulations adopted under it. Under the filed rate doctrine applicable to the transactions here in question, motor carriers were required to publish their shipping rates in tariffs filed with the ICC and to receive only the published rates. Ibid. Our cases have taught the necessity of strict compliance with this scheme. E. g., Maislin Industries, U. S., Inc. v. Primary Steel, Inc., 497 U. S. 116 (1990); Louisville & Nashville R. Co. v. Max- well, 237 U. S. 94, 97 (1915). The question now presented is whether the filed rate doctrine bars the ICC from obtaining injunctive relief to enforce its credit regulations in a manner that would prevent collection of a rate filed in a published tariff. We hold that the filed rate doctrine does not bar the injunction the ICC seeks. I Transcon Lines (Transcon) was once the 12th largest motor carrier in the United States, operating under authori- zation from the ICC. Like many other carriers, Transcon became a victim of the heightened competition resulting from Congress' partial deregulation of the motor carrier industry in 1980. See Motor Carrier Act of 1980, 94 Stat. 793. In May 1990, Transcon consented to an order for relief pursuant to an involuntary bankruptcy petition filed against it under Chapter 11. The trustee appointed by the Bank- ruptcy Court followed the practice of some other trustees for the estates of bankrupt carriers and sought to collect undercharges from Transcon's former customers. The trustee sought not only to collect unpaid freight charges but also to collect liquidated damages for late payment. Some 3,000 adversary proceedings brought by the trustee against Transcon's former customers are pending, and the ICC estimates the liquidated damages in question total about $15 million. 513us1$11L 04-04-98 13:50:07 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 138 (1995) 141 Opinion of the Court The Act bars common carriers subject to the ICC's ju- risdiction from extending credit for their services except "[u]nder regulations of the [ICC] governing the payment for transportation and service and preventing discrimination." 49 U. S. C. §§ 10743(b)(1), 10743(a). By regulations under this express statutory delegation, the ICC has set out in detail the exclusive means by which common carriers can extend credit to shippers. See 49 CFR pt. 1320 (1994). Under the regulations, carriers are authorized to establish credit periods of up to 30 calendar days, §§ 1320.2(c), (d), and, if shippers fail to pay their charges within the estab- lished credit period, to assess service (or interest) charges, § 1320.2(e). Carriers also may assess liquidated damages to cover collection costs, either by a tariff rule or through con- tract terms in their bills of lading. §§ 1320.2(g)(1), (3). Be- fore collecting liquidated damages by tariff rule, however, a carrier must follow specified procedural requirements. First, the timing and conditions of any potential liquidated damages must be described clearly in the carrier's filed tar- iff. § 1320.2(g)(2)(i). Second, the original bill sent to the shipper must set forth any liquidated damages that would be assessed for failure to make timely payment of the freight charges. § 1320.3(c). Third, within 90 days after expiration of the authorized credit period the carrier must "issu[e] a revised freight bill or notice of imposition of collection expense charges for late payment." § 1320.2(g)(2)(vi). Fi- nally, liquidated damages "[s]hall be applied only to the non- payment of original, separate and independent freight bills and shall not apply to aggregate balance-due claims sought for collection on past shipments by a bankruptcy trustee, or any other person or agent . . . ." § 1320.2(g)(2)(iii). Upon satisfying these requirements, carriers may assess liquidated damages through a tariff rule by one of two meth- ods. The first is "to assess liquidated damages as a separate additional charge to the unpaid freight bill." § 1320.2(g)(1) (i). The second is to charge the shipper a "full, nondis- 513us1$11L 04-04-98 13:50:07 PAGES OPINPGT 142 ICC v. TRANSCON LINES Opinion of the Court counted rate instead of the discounted rate [that might other- wise be] applicable." § 1320.2(g)(1)(ii). Transcon used the second, so-called loss-of-discount method to assess liquidated damages. The measure of liquidated damages under this method is prescribed by an ICC regulation. It provides: "The difference between the discount and the full rate constitutes a carrier's liquidated damages for its collec- tion effort. Under this method the tariff shall identify the discount rates that are subject to the condition prec- edent and which require the shipper to make payment by a date certain." Ibid. Transcon's customers had been charged discount rates, ex- pressed as a percentage of a generic bureau rate. To collect liquidated damages, the trustee demanded the nondiscount bureau rate from former customers who had failed to pay their original discount charges on time. The ICC sued in the United States District Court for the Central District of California to enjoin the trustee from col- lecting loss-of-discount liquidated damages. It did not al- lege that Transcon had failed to state its liquidated damages provisions in its filed tariff. Transcon had specified in its "rules tariff" that "discounts . . . shall apply only when tariff charges are paid within 90 calendar days from date of ship- ment." ICC TCON 103­A, Item 210, 1 Supplemental Ex- cerpts of Record 41. The ICC did assert, though, that Transcon had violated each of the three other liquidated damages requirements set out above. Transcon's original bills did not advise shippers of the consequences of late pay- ment, as required by § 1320.3(c); revised bills were not issued until several years after the 90-day period provided in § 1320.2(g)(2)(vi); and the loss-of-discount provision was being applied by a bankruptcy trustee on an aggregate basis, contrary to § 1320.2(g)(2)(iii). The requested injunction would prohibit the trustee from pursuing claims in violation of those requirements. 513us1$11L 04-04-98 13:50:07 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 138 (1995) 143 Opinion of the Court The District Court granted summary judgment for re- spondents, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed in relevant part, ICC v. Transcon Lines, 990 F. 2d 1503 (1993) (as amended on denial of rehear- ing and rehearing en banc). The Court of Appeals under- stood that the ICC as a general matter is authorized to en- force its credit regulations by seeking an injunction, see 49 U. S. C. §§ 11702(a)(4), (a)(6). It also recognized, or at least implied, that the credit regulations are valid on their face, but said that "[r]egulations, however valid in other contexts, cannot furnish the reason for letting the carrier abandon the filed rate." Transcon, supra, at 1514. Relying on our deci- sion in Maislin Industries, U. S., Inc. v. Primary Steel, Inc., 497 U. S. 116 (1990), that the filed rate doctrine bars the ICC from interpreting the unreasonable practice rule to prevent collection of a filed rate where a carrier had agreed to a lower one, the court concluded that "[t]he ICC's interpretation of [the liquidated damages] regulations . . . has no greater force than the policy rejected in Maislin." 990 F. 2d, at 1514. It held that "the filed rate doctrine trumps the manner in which the ICC seeks to regulate carrier credit in this case." Ibid. After the Court of Appeals issued its opinion, we decided Reiter v. Cooper, 507 U. S. 258 (1993). The Court addressed whether a shipper's unreasonable rate claim could be raised in a carrier's suit to collect the difference between the amount charged and the higher amount due under the tariff, or whether the shipper's claim had to be raised in a separate proceeding before the ICC. We held the filed rate doctrine does not bar shippers from raising claims and defenses accorded by the Act, even if this results in defeating collection of a filed rate, and allowed the shipper to allege, subject to the ordinary rules governing counterclaims, an unreasonable-rate counterclaim to the carrier's undercharge action. Id., at 262­267. In light of Reiter, we vacated the Court of Appeals' judgment in the instant matter and re- manded for further consideration. 513us1$11L 04-04-98 13:50:07 PAGES OPINPGT 144 ICC v. TRANSCON LINES Opinion of the Court On remand, the Court of Appeals adhered to its earlier determination. 9 F. 3d 64 (CA9 1993). It found Reiter distinguishable but concluded that, even if it were apposite, Reiter did no more than require a balancing of the carrier's argument based on the filed rate doctrine against the ICC's argument based on the credit regulations. 9 F. 3d, at 66. It thought the balance tilted in favor of disallowing relief. A grant of an injunction would, the Court of Appeals rea- soned, "permit an end-run around the filed rate doctrine" by allowing a carrier and shipper to negotiate a private discount from the filed rate, while denying the injunction would still leave the ICC with "a wide array of tools for enforcing its credit regulations." Id., at 67. We again granted certiorari, 511 U. S. 1029 (1994), and now reverse. II Just as Reiter was in important respects "a sequel to our decision in Maislin," 507 U. S., at 260, this case is a sequel to our decision in Southern Pacific Transp. Co. v. Commercial Metals Co., 456 U. S. 336 (1982). In Commercial Metals, the carrier released goods to the consignee before payment, but failed to investigate the consignee's credit standing, as ICC regulations required, 49 CFR § 1320.1 (1981). See 456 U. S., at 339, 341, and n. 6. When collection against the consignee proved fruitless and the carrier turned to the shipper for payment, the shipper sought to raise the carrier's violation as a defense. We held the defense improper when raised by the shipper, noting our reluctance to grant the shipper an implied remedy when the statutory scheme did not grant an express one. Id., at 345­348. We went on to say, however, that the case would have been quite different had it involved the ICC's seeking injunctive relief, a remedy for which it has specific authority under the Act. We held that "[t]he remedies for a carrier's violations of the regulations are best left to the ICC for such resolution as it thinks proper," and specified that "the ICC has ample authority to police the 513us1$11L 04-04-98 13:50:07 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 138 (1995) 145 Opinion of the Court credit practices of carriers . . . [by] seek[ing] a federal-court injunction requiring a carrier to comply with the regulations . . . ." Id., at 352, 349. We conclude that the ICC here is exercising the enforcement powers we acknowledged in Commercial Metals. The Act grants the ICC broad authority to bring civil ac- tions to enforce the statute and regulations or orders issued under it. 49 U. S. C. § 11702. As respondents themselves concede, the trustee is attempting in this case to collect liqui- dated damages in violation of the ICC's credit regulations. See Brief in Opposition 4­5. To the extent the injunction applies to "a bankruptcy trustee" applying liquidated dam- ages "to aggregate balance-due claims sought for collection on past shipments," the ICC seeks a prospective bar to the trustee's violation of 49 CFR § 1320.2(g)(2)(iii) (1994). This aspect of the ICC's suit is, in effect, a compliance action- the precise relief the Court approved in Commercial Metals. To the extent the ICC seeks to enjoin collection of liquidated damages as a remedy for Transcon's lack of notification in the original bills, see 49 CFR § 1320.3(c) (1992), and nonissu- ance of revised bills within 90 days, see § 1320.2(g)(2)(vi), this remedy too is appropriate. The Court's observation in Commercial Metals that the choice of remedies for violation of its regulations is "best left to the ICC," 456 U. S., at 352, was a particular invocation of the general principle that "the relation of remedy to policy is peculiarly a matter for administrative competence," Phelps Dodge Corp. v. NLRB, 313 U. S. 177, 194 (1941); ICC v. American Trucking Assns., Inc., 467 U. S. 354, 355 (1984) (ICC "has discretion to fashion remedies in furtherance of its statutory responsibilities") (citing Trans Alaska Pipeline Rate Cases, 436 U. S. 631, 654 (1978)). Although the ICC's authority to determine proper remedies for violations under the Act is not without limits, its judgment that a particular remedy is an appropriate exercise of its enforcement author- ity under 49 U. S. C. § 11702(a)(4) is entitled to some defer- 513us1$11L 04-04-98 13:50:07 PAGES OPINPGT 146 ICC v. TRANSCON LINES Opinion of the Court ence. Two substantial reasons support our conclusion that the remedy chosen by the agency is an appropriate one. First, its remedy appears to the ICC, and to us, necessary to the effective enforcement of its regulations. See Com- mercial Metals, supra, at 350, 352; see also Hewitt-Robins Inc. v. Eastern Freight-Ways, Inc., 371 U. S. 84, 88 (1962) (remedy allowed where its absence would "plac[e] the ship- per entirely at the mercy of the carrier"). Were we to disal- low the injunction, respondents and other trustees of bank- rupt carriers would be immune, in effect, from enforcement of the credit regulations. Relief limited to prospective in- junctions requiring carriers to provide notice of liquidated damages and to send revised bills could have no effect on bankrupt carriers and their trustees. Nor do the Act's remedies for unlawful rates, see 49 U. S. C. §§ 10704(b)(1), 11705(b)(3), allow for adequate enforcement of the credit regulations, for not every credit violation will result in an unlawful rate. Second, unlike the credit regulation violated in Commer- cial Metals, which was intended to protect carriers, 456 U. S., at 345­346, the requirements for notice of liquidated damages are to protect shippers from the imposition of pen- alties without warning. When a carrier fails to provide no- tice, it is an appropriate remedy for the ICC to bar collection of the liquidated damages, for the remedy serves the regula- tions' intended beneficiaries. Cf. id., at 344­345 (regulations do not "intimate that a carrier's violation of the credit rules [there at issue] automatically precludes it from collecting the lawful freight charge"). In short, whether or not we would allow shippers to de- fend against a carrier's collection action by relying on the carrier's violation of credit regulations, it follows from Com- mercial Metals and our construction of the controlling stat- ute that the ICC has the authority and the discretion to de- termine appropriate remedies for these violations. Where, as here, the remedy involves "a federal-court injunction re- 513us1$11L 04-04-98 13:50:07 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 138 (1995) 147 Opinion of the Court quiring a carrier to comply with the regulations," id., at 349; constitutes a reasonable and necessary means to effect en- forcement of the ICC's credit regulations; and protects the intended beneficiaries of the violated regulations, we believe the injunction is authorized under the Act. In Maislin we concluded the ICC's policy and its interpre- tation of the Act were "flatly inconsistent with the statutory scheme as a whole." 497 U. S., at 131. We rejected the ICC's enforcement policy, just as we had declined to permit general, nonstatutory equitable defenses in a collection suit. Our concern was that the policy would undercut the whole filed rate system, thus permitting shippers to enforce secret, negotiated, unfiled rates and allowing carriers to discrimi- nate in favor of certain customers. Id., at 130­131. Neither Maislin nor our other filed rate cases suggest that the filed rate doctrine prohibits the ICC from requiring de- parture from a filed rate when necessary to enforce other specific and valid regulations adopted under the Act, regula- tions that are consistent with the filed rate system and com- patible with its effective operation. Carriers must comply with the comprehensive scheme provided by the statute and regulations promulgated under it, and their failure to do so may justify departure from the filed rate. In Reiter, for ex- ample, we confirmed that the filed rate doctrine "assuredly does not preclude avoidance of the tariff rate . . . through claims and defenses that are specifically accorded by the [Act] itself." 507 U. S., at 266 (emphasis deleted). Here, of course, the ICC can and does rely upon Commercial Metals, governing the powers of the ICC and not the defenses avail- able to shippers. As we acknowledged in Maislin, the ICC can require that filed rates be " `suspended or set aside' " in various circumstances. 497 U. S., at 126 (quoting Keogh v. Chicago & Northwestern R. Co., 260 U. S. 156, 163 (1922)); see also ICC v. American Trucking Assns., supra, at 360 ("[T]he Commission may conduct an investigation into a tar- iff's lawfulness at any time after it has gone into effect," and 513us1$11L 04-04-98 13:50:07 PAGES OPINPGT 148 ICC v. TRANSCON LINES Opinion of the Court where a tariff violates the Act, "the Commission has author- ity to cancel the tariff and require that a reasonable and non- discriminatory rate apply in the future. § 10704(b)(1)"). Any remaining doubts as to the appropriateness of the re- lief sought are dispelled upon close examination of respond- ents' particular contention that an injunction here would dis- place the tariff system by substituting a private agreement for the filed rate. This is not so. The charge that cannot be collected is, as respondents themselves concede, Tr. of Oral Arg. 24, the charge for liquidated damages. The ICC has said in a regulation promulgated under the Act that "[t]he difference between the discount and the full rate constitutes a carrier's liquidated damages for its collection effort." 49 CFR § 1320.2(g)(1)(ii) (1994); see 49 U. S. C. § 10743(b)(1) (Act authorizes the extension of credit-and therefore any liquidated damages resulting from the exten- sion of credit-only pursuant to ICC regulations). The reg- ulation is entitled to deference as an interpretation of the Act. Chevron U. S. A. Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc., 467 U. S. 837 (1984). Thus, the ICC is not seeking to enforce a secret, unfiled rate in place of a filed rate, but is seeking to enforce the rate for shipping over the rate for shipping plus collection efforts. See Hewitt-Robins Inc. v. Eastern Freight-Ways, Inc., 371 U. S., at 88 (enforcing lower of two filed rates in no manner "hampers the efficient administration of the Act"). III The Act by express terms authorizes the ICC to promul- gate credit regulations. It also gives the ICC "the power to seek a federal-court injunction requiring a carrier to com- ply with [its credit] regulations." Commercial Metals, 456 U. S., at 349 (citation omitted). The injunctive relief sought by the ICC is both necessary and appropriate to effective enforcement of its valid credit regulations, and does not "permi[t] the very price discrimination that the Act by its 513us1$11L 04-04-98 13:50:07 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

Argued October 5, 1994-Decided January 10, 1995 Petitioner Tome was charged with sexually abusing his daughter A. T. when she was four years old. The Government theorized that he com- mitted the assault while A. T. was in his custody and that the crime was disclosed while she was spending vacation time with her mother. The defense countered that the allegations were concocted so A. T. would not be returned to her father, who had primary physical custody. A. T. testified at the trial, and, in order to rebut the implicit charge that her testimony was motivated by a desire to live with her mother, the Gov- ernment presented six witnesses who recounted out-of-court statements that A. T. made about the alleged assault while she was living with her mother. The District Court admitted the statements under, inter alia, Federal Rule of Evidence 801(d)(1)(B), which provides that prior state- ments of a witness are not hearsay if they are consistent with the wit- ness' testimony and offered to rebut a charge against the witness of "recent fabrication or improper influence or motive." Tome was con- victed, and the Court of Appeals affirmed, adopting the Government's argument that A. T.'s statements were admissible even though they had been made after her alleged motive to fabricate arose. Reasoning that the premotive requirement is a function of relevancy, not the hearsay rules, the court balanced A. T.'s motive to lie against the probative value of one of the statements and determined that the District Court had not erred in admitting the statements. Held: The judgment is reversed, and the case is remanded. 3 F. 3d 342, reversed and remanded. Justice Kennedy delivered the opinion of the Court, except as to Part II­B, concluding: 1. Rule 801(d)(1)(B) permits the introduction of a declarant's consist- ent out-of-court statements to rebut a charge of recent fabrication or improper influence or motive only when those statements were made before the charged fabrication, influence, or motive, conditions that were not established here. Pp. 156­160, 163­166. (a) Rule 801(d)(1)(B) embodies the prevailing common-law rule in existence for more than a century before the Federal Rules of Evidence were adopted: A prior consistent statement introduced to rebut a charge of recent fabrication or improper influence or motive was admissible if 513us1$12Z 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 150 (1995) 151 Syllabus the statement had been made before the alleged fabrication, influence, or motive came into being but was inadmissible if made afterwards. The Rule's language speaks of rebutting charges of recent fabrication and improper influence and motive to the exclusion of other forms of impeachment, and it bears close similarity to the language used in many of the common-law premotive requirement cases. Pp. 156­160. (b) The Government's argument that the common-law rule is incon- sistent with the Federal Rules' liberal approach to relevancy miscon- ceives the design of the Rules' hearsay provisions. Hearsay evidence is often relevant. But if relevance were the sole criterion of admissibil- ity, it would be difficult to account for the Rules' general proscription of hearsay testimony or the traditional analysis of hearsay that the Rules, for the most part, reflect. The Government's reliance on academic com- mentators critical of excluding a witness' out-of-court statements is also misplaced. The Advisory Committee rejected the balancing approach such commentators proposed when the Rules were adopted. The ap- proach used by the Court of Appeals here creates the precise dangers the Advisory Committee sought to avoid: It involves considerable judi- cial discretion, reduces predictability, and enhances the difficulties of trial preparation because parties will have difficulty knowing in advance whether or not particular out-of-court statements will be admitted. Pp. 163­165. (c) The instant case illustrates some of the important considera- tions supporting the foregoing interpretation. Permitting the intro- duction of prior statements as substantive evidence to rebut every im- plicit charge that a witness' in-court testimony results from recent fabrication or improper influence or motive would shift the trial's whole emphasis to the out-of-court, rather than the in-court, statements. It may be difficult to ascertain when a particular fabrication, influence, or motive arose in some cases. However, a majority of common-law courts were performing this task for over a century, and the Government has presented no evidence that those courts or the courts that adhere to the rule today have been unable to make the determination.

Various Federal Courts of Appeals are divided over the evidence question presented by this case.

Fed. Rule Evid. 801(d)(1)(B). The question is whether out-of- court consistent statements made after the alleged fabrica- tion, or after the alleged improper influence or motive arose, are admissible under the Rule.

S. 150 (1995) 153 Opinion of the Court aged four at the time of the alleged crime. The case having arisen on the Navajo Indian Reservation, Tome was tried by a jury in the United States District Court for the District of New Mexico, where he was found guilty of violating 18 U. S. C. §§ 1153, 2241(c), and 2245(2)(A) and (B). Tome and the child's mother had been divorced in 1988. A tribal court awarded joint custody of the daughter, A. T., to both parents, but Tome had primary physical custody. In 1989 the mother was unsuccessful in petitioning the tribal court for primary custody of A. T., but was awarded custody for the summer of 1990. Neither parent attended a further custody hearing in August 1990. On August 27, 1990, the mother contacted Colorado authorities with allegations that Tome had committed sexual abuse against A. T. The prosecution's theory was that Tome committed sexual assaults upon the child while she was in his custody and that the crime was disclosed when the child was spending vaca- tion time with her mother. The defense argued that the al- legations were concocted so the child would not be returned to her father. At trial A. T., then 61 2 years old, was the Government's first witness. For the most part, her direct testimony consisted of one- and two-word answers to a series of leading questions. Cross-examination took place over two trial days. The defense asked A. T. 348 questions. On the first day A. T. answered all the questions posed to her on general, background subjects. The next day there was no testimony, and the prosecutor met with A. T. When cross-examination of A. T. resumed, she was questioned about those conversations but was reluc- tant to discuss them. Defense counsel then began question- ing her about the allegations of abuse, and it appears she was reluctant at many points to answer. As the trial judge noted, however, some of the defense questions were impre- cise or unclear. The judge expressed his concerns with the examination of A. T., observing there were lapses of as much as 40­55 seconds between some questions and the answers 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT 154 TOME v. UNITED STATES Opinion of the Court and that on the second day of examination the witness seemed to be losing concentration. The trial judge stated, "We have a very difficult situation here." After A. T. testified, the Government produced six wit- nesses who testified about a total of seven statements made by A. T. describing the alleged sexual assaults: A. T.'s baby- sitter recited A. T.'s statement to her on August 22, 1990, that she did not want to return to her father because he "gets drunk and he thinks I'm his wife"; the babysitter re- lated further details given by A. T. on August 27, 1990, while A. T.'s mother stood outside the room and listened after the mother had been unsuccessful in questioning A. T. herself; the mother recounted what she had heard A. T. tell the baby- sitter; a social worker recounted details A. T. told her on August 29, 1990, about the assaults; and three pediatricians, Drs. Kuper, Reich, and Spiegel, related A. T.'s statements to them describing how and where she had been touched by Tome. All but A. T.'s statement to Dr. Spiegel implicated Tome. (The physicians also testified that their clinical ex- aminations of the child indicated that she had been subjected to vaginal penetrations. That part of the testimony is not at issue here.) A. T.'s out-of-court statements, recounted by the six witnesses, were offered by the Government under Rule 801(d)(1)(B). The trial court admitted all of the statements over defense counsel's objection, accepting the Government's argument that they rebutted the implicit charge that A. T.'s testimony was motivated by a desire to live with her mother. The court also admitted A. T.'s August 22d statement to her babysitter under Rule 803(24), and the statements to Dr. Kuper (and apparently also to Dr. Reich) under Rule 803(4) (statements for purposes of medical diagnosis). The Gov- ernment offered the testimony of the social worker under both Rules 801(d)(1)(B) and 803(24), but the record does not indicate whether the court ruled on the latter ground. No 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 150 (1995) 155 Opinion of the Court objection was made to Dr. Spiegel's testimony. Following trial, Tome was convicted and sentenced to 12 years' imprisonment. On appeal, the Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit affirmed, adopting the Government's argument that all of A. T.'s out-of-court statements were admissible under Rule 801(d)(1)(B) even though they had been made after A. T.'s alleged motive to fabricate arose. The court reasoned that "the pre-motive requirement is a function of the relevancy rules, not the hearsay rules" and that as a "function of rele- vance, the pre-motive rule is clearly too broad . . . because it is simply not true that an individual with a motive to lie always will do so." 3 F. 3d 342, 350 (1993). "Rather, the relevance of the prior consistent statement is more accu- rately determined by evaluating the strength of the motive to lie, the circumstances in which the statement is made, and the declarant's demonstrated propensity to lie." Ibid. The court recognized that some Circuits require that the consist- ent statements, to be admissible under the Rule, must be made before the motive or influence arose, see, e. g., United States v. Guevara, 598 F. 2d 1094, 1100 (CA7 1979); United States v. Quinto, 582 F. 2d 224, 234 (CA2 1978), but cited the Ninth Circuit's decision in United States v. Miller, 874 F. 2d 1255, 1272 (1989), in support of its balancing approach. Ap- plying this balancing test to A. T.'s first statement to her babysitter, the Court of Appeals determined that although A. T. might have had "some motive to lie, we do not believe that it is a particularly strong one." 3 F. 3d, at 351. The court held that the District Judge had not abused his discre- tion in admitting A. T.'s out-of-court statements. It did not analyze the probative quality of A. T.'s six other out-of-court statements, nor did it reach the admissibility of the state- ments under any other rule of evidence. We granted certiorari, 510 U. S. 1109 (1994), and now reverse. 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT 156 TOME v. UNITED STATES Opinion of the Court II The prevailing common-law rule for more than a century before adoption of the Federal Rules of Evidence was that a prior consistent statement introduced to rebut a charge of recent fabrication or improper influence or motive was ad- missible if the statement had been made before the alleged fabrication, influence, or motive came into being, but it was inadmissible if made afterwards. As Justice Story ex- plained: "[W]here the testimony is assailed as a fabrication of a recent date, . . . in order to repel such imputation, proof of the antecedent declaration of the party may be admitted." Ellicott v. Pearl, 10 Pet. 412, 439 (1836) (emphasis added). See also People v. Singer, 300 N. Y. 120, 124­125, 89 N. E. 2d 710, 712 (1949). McCormick and Wigmore stated the rule in a more cate- gorical manner: "[T]he applicable principle is that the prior consistent statement has no relevancy to refute the charge unless the consistent statement was made before the source of the bias, interest, influence or incapacity originated." E. Cleary, McCormick on Evidence § 49, p. 105 (2d ed. 1972) (hereafter McCormick). See also 4 J. Wigmore, Evidence § 1128, p. 268 (J. Chadbourn rev. 1972) (hereafter Wigmore) ("A consistent statement, at a time prior to the existence of a fact said to indicate bias . . . will effectively explain away the force of the impeaching evidence" (emphasis in original)). The question is whether Rule 801(d)(1)(B) embodies this tem- poral requirement. We hold that it does. A Rule 801 provides: "(d) Statements which are not hearsay.-A statement is not hearsay if- "(1) Prior statement by witness.-The declarant testi- fies at the trial or hearing and is subject to cross- examination concerning the statement, and the state- ment is . . . 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 150 (1995) 157 Opinion of the Court "(B) consistent with the declarant's testimony and is of- fered to rebut an express or implied charge against the declarant of recent fabrication or improper influence or motive." Rule 801 defines prior consistent statements as nonhear- say only if they are offered to rebut a charge of "recent fabri- cation or improper influence or motive." Fed. Rule Evid. 801(d)(1)(B). Noting the "troublesome" logic of treating a witness' prior consistent statements as hearsay at all (be- cause the declarant is present in court and subject to cross- examination), the Advisory Committee decided to treat those consistent statements, once the preconditions of the Rule were satisfied, as nonhearsay and admissible as substantive evidence, not just to rebut an attack on the witness' credibil- ity. See Advisory Committee's Notes on Fed. Rule Evid. 801(d)(1), 28 U. S. C. App., p. 773. A consistent statement meeting the requirements of the Rule is thus placed in the same category as a declarant's inconsistent statement made under oath in another proceeding, or prior identification tes- timony, or admissions by a party opponent. See Fed. Rule Evid. 801. The Rules do not accord this weighty, nonhearsay status to all prior consistent statements. To the contrary, admissi- bility under the Rules is confined to those statements offered to rebut a charge of "recent fabrication or improper influence or motive," the same phrase used by the Advisory Commit- tee in its description of the "traditiona[l]" common law of evidence, which was the background against which the Rules were drafted. See Advisory Committee's Notes, supra, at 773. Prior consistent statements may not be admitted to counter all forms of impeachment or to bolster the witness merely because she has been discredited. In the present context, the question is whether A. T.'s out-of-court state- ments rebutted the alleged link between her desire to be with her mother and her testimony, not whether they sug- gested that A. T.'s in-court testimony was true. The Rule 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT 158 TOME v. UNITED STATES Opinion of the Court speaks of a party rebutting an alleged motive, not bolstering the veracity of the story told. This limitation is instructive, not only to establish the pre- conditions of admissibility but also to reinforce the signifi- cance of the requirement that the consistent statements must have been made before the alleged influence, or motive to fabricate, arose. That is to say, the forms of impeachment within the Rule's coverage are the ones in which the tempo- ral requirement makes the most sense. Impeachment by charging that the testimony is a recent fabrication or results from an improper influence or motive is, as a general matter, capable of direct and forceful refutation through introduction of out-of-court consistent statements that predate the al- leged fabrication, influence, or motive. A consistent state- ment that predates the motive is a square rebuttal of the charge that the testimony was contrived as a consequence of that motive. By contrast, prior consistent statements carry little rebuttal force when most other types of impeachment are involved. McCormick § 49, p. 105 ("When the attack takes the form of impeachment of character, by showing mis- conduct, convictions or bad reputation, it is generally agreed that there is no color for sustaining by consistent statements. The defense does not meet the assault" (footnote omitted)); see also 4 Wigmore § 1131, p. 293 ("The broad rule obtains in a few courts that consistent statements may be admitted after impeachment of any sort-in particular after any im- peachment by cross-examination. But there is no reason for such a loose rule" (footnote omitted)). There may arise instances when out-of-court statements that postdate the alleged fabrication have some probative force in rebutting a charge of fabrication or improper influ- ence or motive, but those statements refute the charged fab- rication in a less direct and forceful way. Evidence that a witness made consistent statements after the alleged motive to fabricate arose may suggest in some degree that the in- court testimony is truthful, and thus suggest in some degree 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 150 (1995) 159 Opinion of the Court that that testimony did not result from some improper influ- ence; but if the drafters of Rule 801(d)(1)(B) intended to countenance rebuttal along that indirect inferential chain, the purpose of confining the types of impeachment that open the door to rebuttal by introducing consistent statements becomes unclear. If consistent statements are admissible without reference to the timeframe we find imbedded in the Rule, there appears no sound reason not to admit consistent statements to rebut other forms of impeachment as well. Whatever objections can be leveled against limiting the Rule to this designated form of impeachment and confining the rebuttal to those statements made before the fabrication or improper influence or motive arose, it is clear to us that the drafters of Rule 801(d)(1)(B) were relying upon the common- law temporal requirement. The underlying theory of the Government's position is that an out-of-court consistent statement, whenever it was made, tends to bolster the testimony of a witness and so tends also to rebut an express or implied charge that the testimony has been the product of an improper influence. Congress could have adopted that rule with ease, providing, for instance, that "a witness' prior consistent statements are admissible whenever relevant to assess the witness' truthfulness or accuracy." The theory would be that, in a broad sense, any prior statement by a witness concerning the disputed issues at trial would have some relevance in assessing the accuracy or truthfulness of the witness' in-court testimony on the same subject. The narrow Rule enacted by Congress, how- ever, cannot be understood to incorporate the Government's theory. Our analysis is strengthened by the observation that the somewhat peculiar language of the Rule bears close simi- larity to the language used in many of the common-law cases that describe the premotive requirement. "Rule 801(d)(1) (B) employs the precise language-`rebut[ting] . . . charge[s] . . . of recent fabrication or improper influence or motive'- 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT 160 TOME v. UNITED STATES Opinion of Kennedy, J. consistently used in the panoply of pre-1975 decisions." Oh- lbaum, The Hobgoblin of the Federal Rules of Evidence: An Analysis of Rule 801(d)(1)(B), Prior Consistent Statements and a New Proposal, 1987 B. Y. U. L. Rev. 231, 245. See, e. g., Ellicott v. Pearl, 10 Pet., at 439; Hanger v. United States, 398 F. 2d 91, 104 (CA8 1968); People v. Singer, 300 N. Y. 120, 89 N. E. 2d 710 (1949). The language of the Rule, in its concentration on rebutting charges of recent fabrication or improper influence or motive to the exclusion of other forms of impeachment, as well as in its use of wording that follows the language of the common- law cases, suggests that it was intended to carry over the common-law premotive rule. B Our conclusion that Rule 801(d)(1)(B) embodies the common-law premotive requirement is confirmed by an ex- amination of the Advisory Committee's Notes to the Federal Rules of Evidence. We have relied on those well-considered Notes as a useful guide in ascertaining the meaning of the Rules. See, e. g., Huddleston v. United States, 485 U. S. 681, 688 (1988); United States v. Owens, 484 U. S. 554, 562 (1988). Where, as with Rule 801(d)(1)(B), "Congress did not amend the Advisory Committee's draft in any way . . . the Commit- tee's commentary is particularly relevant in determining the meaning of the document Congress enacted." Beech Air- craft Corp. v. Rainey, 488 U. S. 153, 165­166, n. 9 (1988). The Notes are also a respected source of scholarly commen- tary. Professor Cleary was a distinguished commentator on the law of evidence, and he and members of the Committee consulted and considered the views, criticisms, and sugges- tions of the academic community in preparing the Notes. The Notes disclose a purpose to adhere to the common law in the application of evidentiary principles, absent express provisions to the contrary. Where the Rules did depart from their common-law antecedents, in general the Commit- 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 150 (1995) 161 Opinion of Kennedy, J. tee said so. See, e. g., Notes on Rule 804(b)(4), 28 U. S. C. App., p. 790 ("The general common law requirement that a declaration in this area must have been made ante litem motam has been dropped, as bearing more appropriately on weight than admissibility"); Rule 804(b)(2), id., at 789 ("The exception is the familiar dying declaration of the common law, expanded somewhat beyond its traditionally narrow lim- its"); Rule 804(b)(3), ibid. ("The exception discards the com- mon law limitation and expands to the full logical limit"). The Notes give no indication, however, that Rule 801(d)(1)(B) abandoned the premotive requirement. The entire discus- sion of Rule 801(d)(1)(B) is limited to the following comment: "Prior consistent statements traditionally have been ad- missible to rebut charges of recent fabrication or im- proper influence or motive but not as substantive evi- dence. Under the rule they are substantive evidence. The prior statement is consistent with the testimony given on the stand, and, if the opposite party wishes to open the door for its admission in evidence, no sound reason is apparent why it should not be received gener- ally." Notes on Rule 801(d)(1)(B), id., at 773. Throughout their discussion of the Rules, the Advisory Committee's Notes rely on Wigmore and McCormick as au- thority for the common-law approach. In light of the cate- gorical manner in which those authors state the premotive requirement, see supra, at 156, it is difficult to imagine that the drafters, who noted the new substantive use of prior con- sistent statements, would have remained silent if they in- tended to modify the premotive requirement. As we ob- served with respect to another provision of the Rules, "[w]ith this state of unanimity confronting the drafters of the Fed- eral Rules of Evidence, we think it unlikely that they in- tended to scuttle entirely [the common-law requirement]." United States v. Abel, 469 U. S. 45, 50 (1984). Here, we do not think the drafters of the Rule intended to scuttle the 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT 162 TOME v. UNITED STATES Opinion of Kennedy, J. whole premotive requirement and rationale without so much as a whisper of explanation. Observing that Edward Cleary was the Reporter of the Advisory Committee that drafted the Rules, the Court has relied upon his writings as persuasive authority on the mean- ing of the Rules. See Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceu- ticals, Inc., 509 U. S. 579 (1993); Abel, supra, at 51­52. Cleary also was responsible for the 1972 revision of McCor- mick's treatise, which included an examination of the changes introduced by the proposed federal rules to the common-law practice of impeachment and rehabilitation. The discussion, which occurs only three paragraphs after the treatise's cate- gorical description of the common-law premotive rule, also lacks any indication that the proposed rules were abandoning that temporal limitation. See McCormick § 50, p. 107. Our conclusion is bolstered by the Advisory Committee's stated "unwillingness to countenance the general use of prior prepared statements as substantive evidence." See Notes on Rule 801(d)(1), 28 U. S. C. App., p. 773. Rule 801(d), which "enumerates three situations in which the statement is excepted from the category of hearsay," ibid., was expressly contrasted by the Committee with Uniform Rule of Evidence 63(1) (1953), "which allows any out-of-court statement of a declarant who is present at the trial and available for cross- examination." Notes on Rule 801(d)(1), supra, at 773 (em- phasis added). When a witness presents important testi- mony damaging to a party, the party will often counter with at least an implicit charge that the witness has been under some influence or motive to fabricate. If Rule 801 were read so that the charge opened the floodgates to any prior consist- ent statement that satisfied Rule 403, as the Tenth Circuit concluded, the distinction between rejected Uniform Rule 63(1) and Rule 801(d)(1)(B) would all but disappear. That Rule 801(d)(1)(B) permits prior consistent statements to be used for substantive purposes after the statements are admitted to rebut the existence of an improper influence or 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 150 (1995) 163 Opinion of the Court motive makes it all the more important to observe the pre- conditions for admitting the evidence in the first place. The position taken by the Rules reflects a compromise between the views expressed by the "bulk of the case law . . . against allowing prior statements of witnesses to be used generally as substantive evidence" and the views of the majority of "writers . . . [who] ha[d] taken the opposite position." Ibid. That compromise was one that the Committee candidly ad- mitted was a "judgment . . . more of experience than of logic." Ibid. "A party contending that legislative action changed settled law has the burden of showing that the legislature intended such a change." Green v. Bock Laundry Machine Co., 490 U. S. 504, 521 (1989) (applying that presumption in interpret- ing Federal Rule of Evidence 609). Nothing in the Advisory Committee's Notes suggests that it intended to alter the common-law premotive requirement. C The Government's final argument in favor of affirmance is that the common-law premotive rule advocated by petitioner is inconsistent with the Federal Rules' liberal approach to relevancy and with strong academic criticism, beginning in the 1940's, directed at the exclusion of out-of-court state- ments made by a declarant who is present in court and sub- ject to cross-examination. This argument misconceives the design of the Rules' hearsay provisions. Hearsay evidence is often relevant. "The only way in which the probative force of hearsay differs from the proba- tive force of other testimony is in the absence of oath, de- meanor, and cross-examination as aids in determining credi- bility." Advisory Committee's Introduction to Article VIII, 28 U. S. C. App., p. 771. That does not resolve the matter, however. Relevance is not the sole criterion of admissibil- ity. Otherwise, it would be difficult to account for the Rules' general proscription of hearsay testimony (absent a specific 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT 164 TOME v. UNITED STATES Opinion of the Court exception), see Fed. Rule Evid. 802, let alone the traditional analysis of hearsay that the Rules, for the most part, reflect. Ibid. ("The approach to hearsay in these rules is that of the common law. . . . The traditional hearsay exceptions are drawn upon for the exceptions . . ."). That certain out-of- court statements may be relevant does not dispose of the question whether they are admissible. The Government's reliance on academic commentators critical of excluding out-of-court statements by a witness, see Brief for United States 40, is subject to like criticism. To be sure, certain commentators in the years preceding the adoption of the Rules had been critical of the common-law approach to hearsay, particularly its categorical exclusion of out-of-court statements offered for substantive purposes. See, e. g., Weinstein, The Probative Force of Hearsay, 46 Iowa L. Rev. 331, 344­345 (1961) (gathering sources). Gen- eral criticism was directed to the exclusion of a declarant's out-of-court statements where the declarant testified at trial. See, e. g., id., at 333 ("[T]reating the out of court statement of the witness himself as hearsay" is a "practical absurdity in many instances"); Morgan, Hearsay Dangers and the Ap- plication of the Hearsay Concept, 62 Harv. L. Rev. 177, 192­ 196 (1948). As an alternative, they suggested moving away from the categorical exclusion of hearsay and toward a case- by-case balancing of the probative value of particular state- ments against their likely prejudicial effect. See Weinstein, supra, at 338; Ladd, The Relationship of the Principles of Exclusionary Rules of Evidence to the Problem of Proof, 18 Minn. L. Rev. 506 (1934). The Advisory Committee, how- ever, was explicit in rejecting this balancing approach to hearsay: "The Advisory Committee has rejected this approach to hearsay as involving too great a measure of judicial discretion, minimizing the predictability of rulings, [and] enhancing the difficulties of preparation for trial." Advisory Committee's Introduction, supra, at 771. 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 150 (1995) 165 Opinion of the Court Given the Advisory Committee's rejection of both the gen- eral balancing approach to hearsay and of Uniform Rule 63(1), see supra, at 162, the Government's reliance on the views of those who advocated these positions is misplaced. The statement-by-statement balancing approach advo- cated by the Government and adopted by the Tenth Circuit creates the precise dangers the Advisory Committee noted and sought to avoid: It involves considerable judicial discre- tion; it reduces predictability; and it enhances the difficulties of trial preparation because parties will have difficulty know- ing in advance whether or not particular out-of-court state- ments will be admitted. See Advisory Committee's Intro- duction, supra, at 771. D The case before us illustrates some of the important con- siderations supporting the Rule as we interpret it, especially in criminal cases. If the Rule were to permit the introduc- tion of prior statements as substantive evidence to rebut every implicit charge that a witness' in-court testimony re- sults from recent fabrication or improper influence or motive, the whole emphasis of the trial could shift to the out-of-court statements, not the in-court ones. The present case illus- trates the point. In response to a rather weak charge that A. T.'s testimony was a fabrication created so the child could remain with her mother, the Government was permitted to present a parade of sympathetic and credible witnesses who did no more than recount A. T.'s detailed out-of-court state- ments to them. Although those statements might have been probative on the question whether the alleged conduct had occurred, they shed but minimal light on whether A. T. had the charged motive to fabricate. At closing argument be- fore the jury, the Government placed great reliance on the prior statements for substantive purposes but did not once seek to use them to rebut the impact of the alleged motive. We are aware that in some cases it may be difficult to ascertain when a particular fabrication, influence, or motive 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT 166 TOME v. UNITED STATES Opinion of the Court arose. Yet, as the Government concedes, a majority of common-law courts were performing this task for well over a century, see Brief for United States 39, and the Govern- ment has presented us with no evidence that those courts, or the judicial circuits that adhere to the rule today, have been unable to make the determination. Even under the Government's hypothesis, moreover, the thing to be rebutted must be identified, so the date of its origin cannot be that much more difficult to ascertain. By contrast, as the Advi- sory Committee commented, see supra, at 164, the Govern- ment's approach, which would require the trial court to weigh all of the circumstances surrounding a statement that suggest its probativeness against the court's assessment of the strength of the alleged motive, would entail more of a burden, with no guidance to attorneys in preparing a case or to appellate courts in reviewing a judgment. III Courts must be sensitive to the difficulties attendant upon the prosecution of alleged child abusers. In almost all cases a youth is the prosecution's only eyewitness. But "[t]his Court cannot alter evidentiary rules merely because litigants might prefer different rules in a particular class of cases." United States v. Salerno, 505 U. S. 317, 322 (1992). When a party seeks to introduce out-of-court statements that contain strong circumstantial indicia of reliability, that are highly probative on the material questions at trial, and that are better than other evidence otherwise available, there is no need to distort the requirements of Rule 801(d)(1)(B). If its requirements are met, Rule 803(24) exists for that eventual- ity. We intimate no view, however, concerning the admissi- bility of any of A. T.'s out-of-court statements under that section, or any other evidentiary principle. These matters, and others, are for the Court of Appeals to decide in the first instance. 513us1$12L 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 150 (1995) 167 Opinion of Scalia, J. Our holding is confined to the requirements for admission under Rule 801(d)(1)(B). The Rule permits the introduction of a declarant's consistent out-of-court statements to rebut a charge of recent fabrication or improper influence or motive only when those statements were made before the charged recent fabrication or improper influence or motive. These conditions of admissibility were not established here. The judgment of the Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit is reversed, and the case is remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion. It is so ordered. Justice Scalia, concurring in part and concurring in the judgment. I concur in the judgment of the Court, and join its opinion except for Part II­B. That Part, which is devoted entirely to a discussion of the Advisory Committee's Notes pertinent to Rule 801(d)(1)(B), gives effect to those Notes not only be- cause they are "a respected source of scholarly commentary," ante, at 160, but also because they display the "purpose," ibid., or "inten[t]," ante, at 161, of the draftsmen. I have previously acquiesced in, see, e. g., Beech Aircraft Corp. v. Rainey, 488 U. S. 153 (1988), and indeed myself engaged in, see United States v. Owens, 484 U. S. 554, 562 (1988), similar use of the Advisory Committee Notes. More mature consideration has persuaded me that is wrong. Hav- ing been prepared by a body of experts, the Notes are as- suredly persuasive scholarly commentaries-ordinarily the most persuasive-concerning the meaning of the Rules. But they bear no special authoritativeness as the work of the draftsmen, any more than the views of Alexander Hamil- ton (a draftsman) bear more authority than the views of Thomas Jefferson (not a draftsman) with regard to the mean- ing of the Constitution. It is the words of the Rules that have been authoritatively adopted-by this Court, or by Congress if it makes a statutory change. See 28 U. S. C. 513us1$12K 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT 168 TOME v. UNITED STATES Opinion of Scalia, J. §§ 2072, 2074 (1988 ed. and Supp. IV). In my view even the adopting Justices' thoughts, unpromulgated as Rules, have no authoritative (as opposed to persuasive) effect, any more than their thoughts regarding an opinion (reflected in ex- changes of memoranda before the opinion issues) authorita- tively demonstrate the meaning of that opinion. And the same for the thoughts of congressional draftsmen who pre- pare statutory amendments to the Rules. Like a judicial opinion and like a statute, the promulgated Rule says what it says, regardless of the intent of its drafters. The Notes are, to be sure, submitted to us and to the Members of Con- gress as the thoughts of the body initiating the recommenda- tions, see § 2073(d); but there is no certainty that either we or they read those thoughts, nor is there any procedure by which we formally endorse or disclaim them. That being so, the Notes cannot, by some power inherent in the draftsmen, change the meaning that the Rules would otherwise bear. In the present case, the merely persuasive force of the Advisory Committee Notes suffices. Indeed, in my view the case can be adequately resolved without resort to the Advi- sory Committee at all. It is well established that " ` "the body of common law knowledge" ' " must be " ` "a source of guidance" ' " in our interpretation of the Rules. Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 509 U. S. 579, 588 (1993) (quoting United States v. Abel, 469 U. S. 45, 52 (1984) (quot- ing Cleary, Preliminary Notes on Reading the Rules of Evi- dence, 57 Neb. L. Rev. 908, 915 (1978))). Rule 801(d)(1)(B) uses language that tracks common-law cases and prescribes a result that makes no sense except on the assumption that that language indeed adopts the common-law rule. As the Court's opinion points out, only the premotive-statement lim- itation makes it rational to admit a prior corroborating state- ment to rebut a charge of recent fabrication or improper mo- tive, but not to rebut a charge that the witness' memory is playing tricks. 513us1$12Q 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 150 (1995) 169 Breyer, J., dissenting Justice Breyer, with whom The Chief Justice, Jus- tice O'Connor, and Justice Thomas join, dissenting. The basic issue in this case concerns not hearsay, but rele- vance. As the majority points out, the common law permit- ted a lawyer to rehabilitate a witness (after a charge of im- proper motive) by pointing to the fact that the witness had said the same thing earlier-but only if the witness made the earlier statement before the motive to lie arose. The reason for the time limitation was that, otherwise, the prior consistent statement had no relevance to rebut the charge that the in-court testimony was the product of the motive to lie. The treatises, discussing the matter under the general heading of "impeachment and support" (McCormick) or "rel- evancy" (Wigmore), and not "hearsay," make this clear, stat- ing, for example, that a " `prior consistent statement has no relevancy to refute [a] charge [of recent fabrication, etc.,] unless the consist- ent statement was made before the source of the bias, interest, influence or incapacity originated.' " Ante, at 156 (quoting E. Cleary, McCormick on Evidence § 49, p. 105 (2d ed. 1972) (hereinafter McCormick)). The majority believes that a hearsay-related rule, Federal Rule of Evidence 801(d)(1)(B), codifies this absolute timing requirement. I do not. Rule 801(d)(1)(B) has nothing to do with relevance. Rather, that Rule carves out a subset of prior consistent statements that were formerly admissible only to rehabilitate a witness (a nonhearsay use that relies upon the fact that the statement was made). It then says that members of that subset are "not hearsay." This means that, if such a statement is admissible for a particular reha- bilitative purpose (to rebut a charge of recent fabrication or improper influence or motive), its proponent now may use it substantively, for a hearsay purpose (i. e., as evidence of its truth), as well. 513us1$12Q 04-04-98 13:51:10 PAGES OPINPGT 170 TOME v. UNITED STATES Breyer, J., dissenting The majority is correct in saying that there are different kinds of categories of prior consistent statements that can rehabilitate a witness in different ways, including statements (a) placing a claimed inconsistent statement in context; (b) showing that an inconsistent statement was not made; (c) indicating that the witness' memory is not as faulty as a cross-examiner has claimed; and (d) showing that the witness did not recently fabricate his testimony as a result of an im- proper influence or motive. See United States v. Rubin, 609 F. 2d 51, 68 (CA2 1979) (Friendly, J., concurring). But, I do not see where, in the existence of several categories, the majority can find the premise, which it seems to think is important, that the reason the drafters singled out one cate- gory (category (d)) was that category's special probative force in respect to rehabilitating a witness. Nor, in any event, do I understand how that premise can help the major- ity reach its conclusion about the common-law timing rule. I doubt the premise because, as McCormick points out, other categories of prior consistent statements (used for rehabilitation) also, on occasion, seem likely to have strong probative force. What, for example, about such statements introduced to rebut a charge of faulty memory (category (c) above)? McCormick says about such statements: "If the witness's accuracy of memory is challenged, it seems clear common sense that a consistent statement made shortly after the event and before he had time to forget, should be received in support." McCormick § 49, at 105, n. 88 (empha- sis added). Would not such statements (received in evi- dence to rehabilitate) often turn out to be highly probative as well? More important, the majority's conclusion about timing seems not to follow from its "especially probative force" premise. That is because probative force has little to do with the concerns underlying hearsay law. Hearsay law basically turns on an out-of-court declarant's reliability, as tested through cross-examination; it does not normally turn 513us1$12Q 04-04-98 13:51:11 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 150 (1995) 171 Breyer, J., dissenting on the probative force (if true) of that declarant's statement. The "timing" circumstance (the fact that a prior consistent statement was made after a motive to lie arose) may dimin- ish probative force, but it does not diminish reliability. Thus, from a hearsay perspective, the timing of a prior con- sistent statement is basically beside the point. At the same time, one can find a hearsay-related reason why the drafters might have decided to restrict the Rule to a particular category of prior consistent statements. Juries have trouble distinguishing between the rehabilitative and substantive use of the kind of prior consistent statements listed in Rule 801(d)(1)(B). Judges may give instructions limiting the use of such prior consistent statements to a rehabilitative purpose, but, in practice, juries nonetheless tend to consider them for their substantive value. See 4 J. Weinstein & M. Berger, Weinstein's Evidence ¶ 801(d) (1)(B)[01], p. 801­188 (1994) ("[A]s a practical matter, the jury in all probability would misunderstand or ignore a limiting instruction [with respect to the class of prior consistent statements covered by the Rule] anyway, so there is no good reason for giving one"). It is possible that the Advisory Committee made them "nonhearsay" for that reason, i. e., as a concession "more of experience than of logic." Advisory Committee's Notes on Fed. Rule Evid. 801(d)(1)(B), 28 U. S. C. App., p. 773 (also noting that the witness is available for cross-examination in the courtroom in any event). If there was a reason why the drafters excluded from Rule 801(d)(1)(B)'s scope other kinds of prior consistent state- ments (used for rehabilitation), perhaps it was that the draft- ers concluded that those other statements caused jury confu- sion to a lesser degree. On this rationale, however, there is no basis for distinguishing between premotive and post- motive statements, for the confusion with respect to each would very likely be the same. In sum, because the Rule addresses a hearsay problem and one can find a reason, unrelated to the premotive rule, for 513us1$12Q 04-04-98 13:51:11 PAGES OPINPGT 172 TOME v. UNITED STATES Breyer, J., dissenting why it does so, I would read the Rule's plain words to mean exactly what they say: If a trial court properly admits a statement that is "consistent with the declarant's testimony" for the purpose of "rebut[ting] an express or implied charge . . . of recent fabrication or improper influence or motive," then that statement is "not hearsay," and the jury may also consider it for the truth of what it says. Assuming Rule 801(d)(1)(B) does not codify the absolute timing requirement, I must still answer the question whether, as a relevance matter, the common-law statement of the premotive rule stands as an absolute bar to a trial court's admission of a postmotive prior consistent statement for the purpose of rebutting a charge of recent fabrication or improper influence or motive. The majority points to state- ments of the timing rule that do suggest that, for reasons of relevance, the law of evidence never permits their admission. Ante, at 156. Yet, absolute-sounding rules often allow excep- tions. And, there are sound reasons here for permitting an exception to the timing rule where circumstances warrant. For one thing, one can find examples where the timing rule's claim of "no relevancy" is simply untrue. A post- motive statement is relevant to rebut, for example, a charge of recent fabrication based on improper motive, say, when the speaker made the prior statement while affected by a far more powerful motive to tell the truth. A speaker might be moved to lie to help an acquaintance. But, suppose the circumstances also make clear to the speaker that only the truth will save his child's life. Or, suppose the postmotive statement was made spontaneously, or when the speaker's motive to lie was much weaker than it was at trial. In these and similar situations, special circumstances may indicate that the prior statement was made for some reason other than the alleged improper motivation; it may have been made not because of, but despite, the improper motivation. Hence, postmotive statements can, in appropriate circum- stances, directly refute the charge of fabrication based on 513us1$12Q 04-04-98 13:51:11 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 150 (1995) 173 Breyer, J., dissenting improper motive, not because they bolster in a general way the witness' trial testimony, see ante, at 159, but because the circumstances indicate that the statements are not causally connected to the alleged motive to lie. For another thing, the common-law premotive rule was not as uniform as the majority suggests. Cf. United States v. Abel, 469 U. S. 45, 50 (1984) (stating that where the common law was unanimous, the drafters of the Federal Rules likely intended to preserve it). A minority of courts recognized that postmotive statements could be relevant to rebut a charge of recent fabrication or improper influence or motive under the right circumstances. See, e. g., United States v. Gandy, 469 F. 2d 1134, 1135 (CA5 1972); Copes v. United States, 345 F. 2d 723, 726 (CADC 1964); State v. George, 30 N. C. 324, 328 (1848). I concede that the majority of courts took the rule of thumb as absolute. But, I have searched the cases (and the commentators) in vain for an explanation of why that should be so. See, e. g., McCormick § 49, at 105, and n. 88 (citing cases). One can imagine a possible explanation: Trial judges may find it easier to administer an absolute rule. Yet, there is no indication in any of the cases that trial judges would, or do, find it particularly difficult to administer a more flexible rule in this context. And, there is something to be said for the greater authority that flexibility grants the trial judge to tie rulings on the admissibility of rehabilitative evidence more closely to the needs and circumstances of the particular case. 1 J. Weinstein & M. Berger, Weinstein's Evidence ¶ 401[01], pp. 401­8 to 401­9 (1994) ("A flexible approach . . . is more apt to yield a sensible result than the application of a mechanical rule"). Furthermore, the majority concedes that the premotive rule, while seemingly bright line, poses its own administrative difficulties. Ante, at 165­166. This Court has acknowledged that the Federal Rules of Evidence worked a change in common-law relevancy rules in the direction of flexibility. See Daubert v. Merrell Dow 513us1$12Q 04-04-98 13:51:11 PAGES OPINPGT 174 TOME v. UNITED STATES Breyer, J., dissenting Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 509 U. S. 579 (1993). Article IV of the Federal Rules, which concerns relevance, liberalizes the rules for admission of relevant evidence. See id., at 587. The Rules direct the trial judge generally to admit all evi- dence having "any tendency" to make the existence of a ma- terial fact "more probable or less probable than it would be without the evidence." Fed. Rules Evid. 401, 402. The judge may reject the evidence (assuming compliance with other rules) only if the probative value of the evidence is substantially outweighed by its tendency to prejudice a party or delay a trial. Rule 403. The codification, as a gen- eral matter, relies upon the trial judge's administration of Rules 401, 402, and 403 to keep the barely relevant, the time wasting, and the prejudicial from the jury. See, e. g., Abel, supra, at 54 ("A district court is accorded a wide discretion in . . . [a]ssessing the probative value of [proffered evidence], and weighing any factors counseling against admissibility"); 1 Weinstein's Evidence, supra, ¶ 401[01] (discussing broad discretion accorded trial judge); 22 C. Wright & K. Graham, Federal Practice and Procedure § 5162 (1978 and 1994 Supp.). In Daubert, this Court considered the rule of Frye v. United States, 293 F. 1013 (CADC 1923), which had excluded scientific evidence that had not gained general acceptance in the relevant field. 509 U. S., at 585­586. Like the premo- tive rule here at issue, the Frye rule was "rigid," setting forth an "absolute prerequisite to admissibility," which the Court said was "at odds with the `liberal thrust' of the Fed- eral Rules." Id., at 588. Daubert suggests that the liberal- ized relevancy provisions of the Federal Rules can supersede a pre-existing rule of relevance, at least where no compelling practical or logical support can be found for the pre-existing rule. It is difficult to find any strong practical or logical considerations for making the premotive rule an absolute condition of admissibility here. Perhaps there are other cir- cumstances in which categorical common-law rules serve the purposes of Rules 401, 402, and 403, and should, accordingly, 513us1$12Q 04-04-98 13:51:11 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 150 (1995) 175 Breyer, J., dissenting remain absolute in the law. But, for the reasons stated above, this case, like Daubert, does not present such a cir- cumstance. Thus, considered purely as a matter of rele- vancy law (and as though Rule 801(d)(1)(B) had not been written), I would conclude that the premotive rule did not survive the adoption of the Rules. Irrespective of these arguments, one might claim that, nonetheless, the drafters, in writing Rule 801(d)(1)(B), relied on the continued existence of the common-law relevancy rule, and that Rule 801(d)(1)(B) therefore reflects a belief that the common-law relevancy rule would survive. But, I would reject that argument. For one thing, if the drafters had wanted to insulate the common-law rule from the Rules' lib- eralizing effect, this would have been a remarkably indirect (and therefore odd) way of doing so-both because Rule 801(d)(1)(B) is utterly silent about the premotive rule and because Rule 801(d)(1)(B) is a rule of hearsay, not relevancy. For another thing, there is an equally plausible reason why the drafters might have wanted to write Rule 801(d)(1)(B) the way they did-namely, to allow substantive use of a par- ticular category of prior consistent statements that, when admitted as rehabilitative evidence, was especially impervi- ous to a limiting instruction. See supra, at 171. Accordingly, I would hold that the Federal Rules authorize a district court to allow (where probative in respect to reha- bilitation) the use of postmotive prior consistent statements to rebut a charge of recent fabrication or improper influence or motive (subject of course to, for example, Rule 403). Where such statements are admissible for this rehabilitative purpose, Rule 801(d)(1)(B), as stated above, makes them ad- missible as substantive evidence as well (provided, of course, that the Rule's other requirements, such as the witness' availability for cross-examination, are satisfied). In most cases, this approach will not yield a different result from a strict adherence to the premotive rule for, in most cases, postmotive statements will not be significantly probative. 513us1$12Q 04-04-98 13:51:11 PAGES OPINPGT 176 TOME v. UNITED STATES Breyer, J., dissenting And, even in cases where the statement is admitted as sig- nificantly probative (in respect to rehabilitation), the effect of admission on the trial will be minimal because the prior consistent statements will (by their nature) do no more than repeat in-court testimony. In this case, the Court of Appeals, applying an approach consistent with what I have described above, decided that A. T.'s prior consistent statements were probative on the question of whether her story as a witness reflected a motive to lie. There is no reason to reevaluate this factbound con- clusion. Accordingly, I would affirm the judgment of the Court of Appeals. 513us1$13Z 11-21-96 17:23:16 PAGES OPINPGT OCTOBER TERM, 1994 177 Decree ILLINOIS v. KENTUCKY on bill of complaint No. 106, Orig.

WINTERBOER et al., dba DEEBEES certiorari to the united states court of appeals for the federal circuit No. 92­2038. Argued November 7, 1994-Decided January 18, 1995 Petitioner Asgrow Seed Company has protected two varieties of soybean seed under the Plant Variety Protection Act of 1970 (PVPA), which ex- tends patent-like protection to novel varieties of sexually reproduced plants (plants grown from seed). After respondent farmers planted 265 acres of Asgrow's seed and sold the entire salable crop-enough to plant 10,000 acres-to other farmers for use as seed, Asgrow filed suit, alleg- ing infringement under, inter alia, 7 U. S. C. § 2541(1), for selling or offering to sell the seed, and § 2541(3), for "sexually multiply[ing] the novel varieties as a step in marketing [them] (for growing purposes)." Respondents contended that they were entitled to a statutory exemp- tion from liability under § 2543, which provides in relevant part that "[e]xcept to the extent that such action may constitute an infringement under [§ 2541(3)]," a farmer may "save seed . . . and use such saved seed in the production of a crop for use on his farm, or for sale as provided in this section: Provided, That" such saved seed can be sold for repro- ductive purposes where both buyer and seller are farmers "whose pri- mary farming occupation is the growing of crops for sale for other than reproductive purposes." In granting Asgrow summary judgment, the District Court found that the exemption allows a farmer to save and resell to other farmers only the amount of seed the seller would need to replant his own fields. The Court of Appeals reversed, holding that § 2543 permits a farmer to sell up to half of every crop he produces from PVPA-protected seed, so long as he sells the other half for food or feed. Held: A farmer who meets the requirements set forth in § 2543's proviso may sell for reproductive purposes only such seed as he has saved for the purpose of replanting his own acreage. Pp. 185­193. (a) Respondents were not eligible for the § 2543 exemption if their planting and harvesting were conducted "as a step in marketing" under § 2541(3), for the parties do not dispute that these actions constituted "sexual multiplication" of novel varieties. Since the PVPA does not define "marketing," the term should be given its ordinary meaning. Marketing ordinarily refers to the act of holding forth property for sale, together with the activities preparatory thereto, but does not require 513us1$14Z 03-28-98 15:18:22 PAGES OPINPGT 180 ASGROW SEED CO. v. WINTERBOER Syllabus that there be extensive promotional or merchandising activities con- nected with the selling. Pp. 185­188. (b) By reason of the proviso, the first sentence of § 2543 allows seed that has been preserved for reproductive purposes (saved seed) to be sold for such purposes. However, the structure of the sentence is such that this authorization does not extend to saved seed that was grown for the purpose of sale (marketing) for replanting, because that would violate § 2541(3). As a practical matter, this means that only seed that has been saved by the farmer to replant his own acreage can be sold. Thus, a farmer who saves seeds to replant his acreage, but changes his plans, may sell the seeds for replanting under the proviso's terms. The statute's language stands in the way of the limitation the Court of Appeals found in the amount of seed that can be sold. Pp. 188­192. 982 F. 2d 486, reversed.

The Plant Variety Protection Act of 1970, 7 U. S. C. § 2321 et seq., protects owners of novel seed varieties against unau- thorized sales of their seed for replanting purposes. An ex- emption, however, allows farmers to make some sales of pro- tected variety seed to other farmers. This case raises the question whether there is a limit to the quantity of protected seed that a farmer can sell under this exemption. I In 1970, Congress passed the Plant Variety Protection Act (PVPA), 84 Stat. 1542, 7 U. S. C. § 2321 et seq., in order to provide developers of novel plant varieties with "adequate encouragement for research, and for marketing when appro- priate, to yield for the public the benefits of new varieties," § 2581. The PVPA extends patent-like protection to novel varieties of sexually reproduced plants (that is, plants grown from seed) which parallels the protection afforded asexually reproduced plant varieties (that is, varieties reproduced by propagation or grafting) under Chapter 15 of the Patent Act. See 35 U. S. C. §§ 161­164. The developer of a novel variety obtains PVPA coverage by acquiring a certificate of protection from the Plant Vari- ety Protection Office. See 7 U. S. C. §§ 2421, 2422, 2481­ 2483. This confers on the owner the exclusive right for 18 years to "exclude others from selling the variety, or offering it for sale, or reproducing it, or importing it, or exporting it, or using it in producing (as distinguished from developing) a hybrid or different variety therefrom." § 2483. Petitioner, Asgrow Seed Company, is the holder of PVPA certificates protecting two novel varieties of soybean seed, which it calls A1937 and A2234. Respondents, Dennis and Becky Winterboer, are Iowa farmers whose farm spans 800 acres of Clay County, in the northwest corner of the 513us1$14K 03-28-98 15:18:22 PAGES OPINPGT 182 ASGROW SEED CO. v. WINTERBOER Opinion of the Court State. The Winterboers have incorporated under the name "D-Double-U Corporation" and do business under the name "DeeBee's Feed and Seed." In addition to growing crops for sale as food and livestock feed, since 1987 the Winter- boers have derived a sizable portion of their income from "brown-bag" sales of their crops to other farmers to use as seed. A brown-bag sale occurs when a farmer purchases seed from a seed company, such as Asgrow, plants the seed in his own fields, harvests the crop, cleans it, and then sells the reproduced seed to other farmers (usually in nondescript brown bags) for them to plant as crop seed on their own farms. During 1990, the Winterboers planted 265 acres of A1937 and A2234, and sold the entire salable crop, 10,529 bushels, to others for use as seed-enough to plant 10,000 acres. The average sale price was $8.70 per bushel, com- pared with a then-current price of $16.20 to $16.80 per bushel to obtain varieties A1937 and A2234 directly from Asgrow. Concerned that the Winterboers were making a business out of selling its protected seed, Asgrow sent a local farmer, Robert Ness, to the Winterboer farm to make a purchase. Mr. Winterboer informed Ness that he could sell him soy- bean seed that was "just like" Asgrow varieties A1937 and A2234. Ness purchased 20 bags of each; a plant biologist for Asgrow tested the seeds and determined that they were indeed A1937 and A2234. Asgrow brought suit against the Winterboers in the Fed- eral District Court for the Northern District of Iowa, seek- ing damages and a permanent injunction against sale of seed harvested from crops grown from A1937 and A2234. The complaint alleged infringement under 7 U. S. C. § 2541(1), for selling or offering to sell Asgrow's protected soybean varie- ties; under § 2541(3), for sexually multiplying Asgrow's novel varieties as a step in marketing those varieties for growing purposes; and under § 2541(6), for dispensing the novel varie- 513us1$14K 03-28-98 15:18:22 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

Their defense, at least to the §§ 2541(1) and 1 At the time the infringement action was filed, § 2541 provided in full: "Except as otherwise provided in this subchapter, it shall be an infringe- ment of the rights of the owner of a novel variety to perform without authority, any of the following acts in the United States, or in commerce which can be regulated by Congress or affecting such commerce, prior to expiration of the right to plant variety protection but after either the issue of the certificate or the distribution of a novel plant variety with the notice under section 2567 of this title: "(1) sell the novel variety, or offer it or expose it for sale, deliver it, ship it, consign it, exchange it, or solicit an offer to buy it, or any other transfer of title or possession of it; "(2) import the novel variety into, or export it from, the United States; "(3) sexually multiply the novel variety as a step in marketing (for growing purposes) the variety; or "(4) use the novel variety in producing (as distinguished from develop- ing) a hybrid or different variety therefrom; or "(5) use seed which had been marked "Unauthorized Propagation Pro- hibited" or "Unauthorized Seed Multiplication Prohibited" or progeny thereof to propagate the novel variety; or "(6) dispense the novel variety to another, in a form which can be propa- gated, without notice as to being a protected variety under which it was received; or "(7) perform any of the foregoing acts even in instances in which the novel variety is multiplied other than sexually, except in pursuance of a valid United States plant patent; or "(8) instigate or actively induce performance of any of the foregoing acts." In October 1992, Congress amended § 2541, designating the prior text as subsection (a) and adding a subsection (b), the provisions of which are not relevant here. Curiously, however, the references in § 2543 to the infringement provisions of § 2541 were not amended to reflect this change. For clarity's sake, therefore, we will continue to refer to the infringement provisions under their prior designations, e. g., §§ 2541(1)­(8), rather than their current designations, e. g., §§ 2541(a)(1)­(8). 513us1$14K 03-28-98 15:18:22 PAGES OPINPGT 184 ASGROW SEED CO. v. WINTERBOER Opinion of the Court (3) charges, rested upon the contention that their sales fell within the statutory exemption from infringement liability found in 7 U. S. C. § 2543. That section, entitled "Right to save seed; crop exemption," reads in relevant part as follows: "Except to the extent that such action may constitute an infringement under subsections (3) and (4) of section 2541 of this title, it shall not infringe any right hereun- der for a person to save seed produced by him from seed obtained, or descended from seed obtained, by authority of the owner of the variety for seeding purposes and use such saved seed in the production of a crop for use on his farm, or for sale as provided in this section: Pro- vided, That without regard to the provisions of section 2541(3) of this title it shall not infringe any right hereun- der for a person, whose primary farming occupation is the growing of crops for sale for other than reproductive purposes, to sell such saved seed to other persons so engaged, for reproductive purposes, provided such sale is in compliance with such State laws governing the sale of seed as may be applicable. A bona fide sale for other than reproductive purposes, made in channels usual for such other purposes, of seed produced on a farm either from seed obtained by authority of the owner for seeding purposes or from seed produced by descent on such farm from seed obtained by authority of the owner for seeding purposes shall not constitute an infringement. . . ." 2 2 Congress has recently amended this section by striking from the first sentence the words " `section: Provided, That' and all that follows through the period and inserting `section.' " Plant Variety Protection Act Amend- ments of 1994, Pub. L. 103­349, 108 Stat. 3136, 3142. That amendment has the effect of eliminating the exemption from infringement liability for farmers who sell PVPA-protected seed to other farmers for reproductive purposes. That action, however, has no bearing on the resolution of the 513us1$14K 03-28-98 15:18:22 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 179 (1995) 185 Opinion of the Court The Winterboers argued that this language gave them the right to sell an unlimited amount of seed produced from a protected variety, subject only to the conditions that both buyer and seller be farmers "whose primary farming occupa- tion is the growing of crops for sale for other than reproduc- tive purposes," and that all sales comply with state law. As- grow maintained that the exemption allows a farmer to save and resell to other farmers only the amount of seed the seller would need to replant his own fields-a limitation that the Winterboers' sales greatly exceeded. The District Court agreed with Asgrow and granted summary judgment in its favor. 795 F. Supp. 915 (1991). The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed. 982 F. 2d 486 (1992). Although "recog- niz[ing] that, without meaningful limitations, the crop ex- emption [of § 2543] could undercut much of the PVPA's incen- tives," id., at 491, the Court of Appeals saw nothing in § 2543 that would limit the sale of protected seed (for reproductive purposes) to the amount necessary to plant the seller's own acreage. Rather, as the Court of Appeals read the statute, § 2543 permits a farmer to sell up to half of every crop he produces from PVPA-protected seed to another farmer for use as seed, so long as he sells the other 50 percent of the crop grown from that specific variety for nonreproductive purposes, e. g., for food or feed. The Federal Circuit denied Asgrow's petition for rehearing and suggestion for rehearing en banc by a vote of six judges to five. 989 F. 2d 478 (1993). We granted certiorari. 511 U. S. 1029 (1994). II It may be well to acknowledge at the outset that it is quite impossible to make complete sense of the provision at issue present case, since the amendments affect only those certificates issued after April 4, 1995, that were not pending on or before that date. See id., §§ 14(a), 15, 108 Stat. 3144, 3145. 513us1$14K 03-28-98 15:18:22 PAGES OPINPGT 186 ASGROW SEED CO. v. WINTERBOER Opinion of the Court here. One need go no further than the very first words of its title to establish that. Section 2543 does not, as that title claims and the ensuing text says, reserve any "[r]ight to save seed"-since nothing elsewhere in the Act remotely prohib- its the saving of seed. Nor, under any possible analysis, is the proviso in the first sentence of § 2543 ("Provided, That") really a proviso. With this advance warning that not all mysteries will be solved, we enter the verbal maze of § 2543. The entrance, we discover, is actually an exit, since the provision begins by excepting certain activities from its operation: "Except to the extent that such action may constitute an infringement under subsections (3) and (4) of section 2541 of this title, it shall not infringe any right hereunder for a person to save seed produced by him . . . and use such saved seed in the production of a crop for use on his farm, or for sale as pro- vided in this section . . . ." (Emphasis added.) Thus, a farmer does not qualify for the exemption from infringement liability if he has "(3) sexually multipl[ied] the novel variety as a step in marketing (for growing purposes) the variety; or (4) use[d] the novel variety in producing (as distin- guished from developing) a hybrid or different variety therefrom." 7 U. S. C. §§ 2541(3)­(4). In 1990, the Winterboers planted 265 acres of Asgrow pro- tected variety seed and collected a harvest of 12,037 bushels of soybeans. The parties do not dispute that this act of planting and harvesting constituted "sexual multiplication" of the novel varieties. See 7 U. S. C. § 2401(f) (defining "sex- ually reproduced" seed to include "any production of a vari- ety by seed"). The Winterboers sold almost all of these beans for use as seed (i. e., "for growing purposes"), without Asgrow's consent. The central question in this case, then, is whether the Winterboers' planting and harvesting were conducted "as a step in marketing" Asgrow's protected seed 513us1$14K 03-28-98 15:18:22 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 179 (1995) 187 Opinion of the Court varieties for growing purposes. If they were, the Winter- boers were not eligible for the § 2543 exemption, and the Dis- trict Court was right to grant summary judgment to Asgrow. The PVPA does not define "marketing." When terms used in a statute are undefined, we give them their ordinary meaning. FDIC v. Meyer, 510 U. S. 471, 476 (1994). The Federal Circuit believed that the word "marketing" requires "extensive or coordinated selling activities, such as advertis- ing, using an intervening sales representative, or similar ex- tended merchandising or retail activities." 982 F. 2d, at 492. We disagree. Marketing ordinarily refers to the act of hold- ing forth property for sale, together with the activities pre- paratory thereto (in the present case, cleaning, drying, bag- ging, and pricing the seeds). The word does not require that the promotional or merchandising activities connected with the selling be extensive. One can market apples by simply displaying them on a cart with a price tag; or market a stock by simply listing it on a stock exchange; or market a house (we would normally say "place it on the market") by simply setting a "for sale" sign on the front lawn. Indeed, some dictionaries give as one meaning of "market" simply "to sell." See, e. g., Oxford Universal Dictionary 1208 (3d ed. 1955); Webster's New International Dictionary 1504 (2d ed. 1950). Of course, effective selling often involves exten- sive promotional activities, and when they occur they are all part of the "marketing." But even when the holding forth for sale relies upon no more than word-of-mouth advertising, a marketing of goods is in process. Moreover, even if the word "marketing" could, in one of its meanings, demand ex- tensive promotion, we see no reason why the law at issue here would intend that meaning. That would have the ef- fect of preserving PVPA protection for less valuable plant varieties, but eliminating it for varieties so desirable that they can be marketed by word of mouth; as well as the effect of requiring courts to ponder the difficult question of how much promotion is necessary to constitute marketing. We 513us1$14K 03-28-98 15:18:22 PAGES OPINPGT 188 ASGROW SEED CO. v. WINTERBOER Opinion of the Court think that when the statute refers to sexually multiplying a variety "as a step in marketing," it means growing seed of the variety for the purpose of putting the crop up for sale.3 Under the exception set out in the first clause of § 2543, then, a farmer is not eligible for the § 2543 exemption if he plants and saves seeds for the purpose of selling the seeds that they produce for replanting. Section 2543 next provides that, so long as a person is not violating either §§ 2541(3) or (4), "it shall not infringe any right hereunder for a person to save seed produced by him from seed obtained, or descended from seed obtained, by authority of the owner of the variety for seeding purposes and use such saved seed in the production of a crop for use on his farm, or for sale as provided in this section . . . ." (Emphasis added.) Farmers generally grow crops to sell. A harvested soybean crop is typically removed from the farmer's premises in short order and taken to a grain elevator or processor. Some- times, however, in the case of a plant such as the soybean, in which the crop is the seed, the farmer will have a portion of his crop cleaned and stored as seed for replanting his fields next season. We think it clear that this seed saved for re- planting is what the provision under discussion means by 3 The dissent asserts that the Federal Circuit's more demanding inter- pretation of "marketing" is supported by the ancient doctrine disfavoring restraints on alienation of property, see post, at 194­195. The wellspring of that doctrine, of course, is concern for property rights, and in the con- text of the PVPA it is the dissent's interpretation, rather than ours, which belittles that concern. The whole purpose of the statute is to create a valuable property in the product of botanical research by giving the devel- oper the right to "exclude others from selling the variety, or offering it for sale, or reproducing it, or importing it, or exporting it," etc. 7 U. S. C. § 2483. Applying the rule disfavoring restraints on alienation to interpre- tation of the PVPA is rather like applying the rule disfavoring restraints upon freedom of contract to interpretation of the Sherman Act. 513us1$14K 03-28-98 15:18:23 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 179 (1995) 189 Opinion of the Court "saved seed"-not merely regular uncleaned crop that is stored for later market sale or use as fodder. There are two ways to read the provision, depending upon which words the phrase "for sale as provided in this section" is taken to modify. It can be read "production of a crop . . . for sale as provided in this section"; or alternatively "use such saved seed . . . for sale as provided in this section." The parallelism created by the phrase "for use on his farm" followed immediately by "or for sale as provided in this sec- tion" suggests the former reading. But the placement of the comma, separating "use [of] such saved seed in the produc- tion of a crop for use on his farm," from "or for sale," favors the latter reading. So does the fact that the alternative reading requires the reader to skip the lengthy "Provided, That" clause in order to find out what sales are "provided [for] in this section"-despite the parallelism between "pro- vided" and "Provided," and despite the presence of a colon, which ordinarily indicates specification of what has preceded. It is surely easier to think that at least some of the sales "provided for" are those that are "Provided" after the colon. (It is, of course, not unusual, however deplorable it may be, for "Provided, That" to be used as prologue to an addition rather than an exception. See Springer v. Philippine Is- lands, 277 U. S. 189, 206 (1928); 1A N. Singer, Sutherland on Statutory Construction § 20.22 (5th ed. 1992).) We think the latter reading is also to be preferred because it lends greater meaning to all the provisions. Under the former reading ("production of a crop . . . for sale as provided in this section"), the only later text that could be referred to is the provision for "bona fide sale[s] for other than reproduc- tive purposes" set out in the second sentence of § 2543-the so-called "crop exemption." (The proviso could not be re- ferred to, since it does not provide for sale of crops grown from saved seed, but only for sale of saved seed itself.) But if the "or for sale" provision has such a limited referent, the opening clause's ("Except to the extent that . . .") reservation 513us1$14K 03-28-98 15:18:23 PAGES OPINPGT 190 ASGROW SEED CO. v. WINTERBOER Opinion of the Court of § 2541(3) infringement liability (i. e., liability for growing as a step in marketing for reproductive purposes) would be devoid of content, since the provision to which it is attached would permit no sales for reproductive purposes. Under the latter reading, by contrast, the farmer may not "use [his] saved seed . . . for sale" as the proviso allows if the seed was intentionally grown for the purpose of such sale-i. e., "sexually multipl[ied] . . . as a step in marketing (for growing purposes) the variety." 4 A second respect in which our fa- vored reading gives greater meaning to the provision is this: The other reading ("crop . . . for sale as provided in this section") causes the "permission" given in the opening sen- tence to extend only to sales for nonreproductive purposes of the crops grown from saved seed, as opposed to sales of the saved seed itself. But no separate permission would have been required for this, since it is already contained within the crop exemption itself; it serves only as a reminder that crop from saved seed can be sold under that exemp- tion-a peculiarly incomplete reminder, since the saved seed itself can also be sold under that exemption. To summarize: By reason of its proviso the first sentence of § 2543 allows seed that has been preserved for reproductive purposes ("saved seed") to be sold for such purposes. The structure of the sentence is such, however, that this authori- zation does not extend to saved seed that was grown for the very purpose of sale ("marketing") for replanting-because in that case, § 2541(3) would be violated, and the above- 4 This reading also gives meaning to the proviso's statement that "with- out regard to the provisions of section 2541(3) . . . it shall not infringe any right hereunder" for a person to engage in certain sales of saved seed for reproductive purposes (emphasis added). This serves to eliminate the technical argument that a production of seed that was originally in compli- ance with § 2541(3) (because it was not done as a step in marketing for reproductive purposes) could retroactively be rendered unlawful by the later sale permitted in the proviso, because such sale causes the earlier production to have been "a step in the marketing" for reproductive purposes. 513us1$14K 03-28-98 15:18:23 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 179 (1995) 191 Opinion of the Court discussed exception to the exemption would apply. As a practical matter, since § 2541(1) prohibits all unauthorized transfer of title to, or possession of, the protected variety, this means that the only seed that can be sold under the proviso is seed that has been saved by the farmer to replant his own acreage.5 (We think that limitation is also apparent from the text of the crop exemption, which permits a farm crop from saved seeds to be sold-for nonreproductive pur- poses-only if those saved seeds were "produced by descent on such farm." (Emphasis added.) It is in our view the proviso in § 2543, and not the crop exemption, that authorizes the permitted buyers of saved seeds to sell the crops they produce.) Thus, if a farmer saves seeds to replant his acre- age, but for some reason changes his plans, he may instead sell those seeds for replanting under the terms set forth in the proviso (or of course sell them for nonreproductive pur- poses under the crop exemption). It remains to discuss one final feature of the proviso au- thorizing limited sales for reproductive purposes. The pro- viso allows sales of saved seed for replanting purposes only between persons "whose primary farming occupation is the growing of crops for sale for other than reproductive pur- poses." The Federal Circuit, which rejected the proposition 5 For crops such as soybeans, in which the seed and the harvest are one and the same, this will mean enough seeds for one year's crop on that acreage. Since the germination rate of a batch of seed declines over time, the soybean farmer will get the year-after-next's seeds from next year's harvest. That is not so for some vegetable crops, in which the seed is not the harvest, and a portion of the crop must be permitted to overripen ("go to seed") in order to obtain seeds. One of the amici in the Court of Ap- peals asserted (and the parties before us did not dispute) that it is the practice of vegetable farmers to "grow" seeds only every four or five years, and to "brown bag" enough seed for four or five future crops. A vegetable farmer who sets aside protected seed with subsequent replant- ings in mind, but who later abandons his plan (because he has sold his farm, for example), would under our analysis be able to sell all his saved seed, even though it would plant (in a single year) four or five times his current acreage. 513us1$14K 03-28-98 15:18:23 PAGES OPINPGT 192 ASGROW SEED CO. v. WINTERBOER Opinion of the Court that the only seed sellable under the exemption is seed saved for the farmer's own replanting, sought to achieve some limi- tation upon the quantity of seed that can be sold for repro- ductive purposes by adopting a "crop-by-crop" approach to the "primary farming occupation" requirement of the pro- viso. "[B]uyers or sellers of brown bag seed qualify for the crop exemption," it concluded, "only if they produce a larger crop from a protected seed for consumption (or other nonre- productive purposes) than for sale as seed." 982 F. 2d, at 490. That is to say, the brown-bag seller can sell no more than half of his protected crop for seed. The words of the statute, however, stand in the way of this creative (if some- what insubstantial) limitation. To ask what is a farmer's "primary farming occupation" is to ask what constitutes the bulk of his total farming business. Selling crops for other than reproductive purposes must constitute the preponder- ance of the farmer's business, not just the preponderance of his business in the protected seed. There is simply no way to derive from this text the narrower focus that the Federal Circuit applied. Thus, if the quantity of seed that can be sold is not limited as we have described-by reference to the original purpose for which the seed is saved-then it is barely limited at all (i. e., limited only by the volume or worth of the selling farmer's total crop sales for other than reproductive purposes). This seems to us a most unlikely result. * * * We hold that a farmer who meets the requirements set forth in the proviso to § 2543 may sell for reproductive pur- poses only such seed as he has saved for the purpose of re- planting his own acreage. While the meaning of the text is by no means clear, this is in our view the only reading that comports with the statutory purpose of affording "adequate encouragement for research, and for marketing when appro- priate, to yield for the public the benefits of new varieties." 7 U. S. C. § 2581. Because we find the sales here were un- 513us1$14K 03-28-98 15:18:23 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 179 (1995) 193 Stevens, J., dissenting lawful, we do not reach the second question on which we granted certiorari-whether sales authorized under § 2543 remain subject to the notice requirement of § 2541(6). The judgment of the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit is Reversed. Justice Stevens, dissenting. The key to this statutory puzzle is the meaning of the phrase, "as a step in marketing," as used in 7 U. S. C. § 2541(a)(3) (1988 ed., Supp. V). If it is synonymous with "for the purpose of selling," as the Court holds, see ante, at 188, then the majority's comprehensive exposition of the statute is correct. I record my dissent only because that phrase conveys a different message to me. There must be a reason why Congress used the word "marketing" rather than the more common term "selling." Indeed, in § 2541(a)(1), contained in the same subsection of the statute as the crucial language, Congress made it an act of infringement to "sell the novel variety." Yet, in § 2541(a)(3), a mere two clauses later, Congress eschewed the word "sell" in favor of "marketing." Because Congress ob- viously could have prohibited sexual multiplication "as a step in selling," I presume that when it elected to prohibit sexual multiplication only "as a step in marketing (for growing pur- poses) the variety," Congress meant something different. Moreover, as used in this statute, "marketing" must be narrower, not broader, than selling. The majority is correct that one meaning of "marketing" is the act of selling and all acts preparatory thereto. See ante, at 187. But Congress has prohibited only one preparatory act-that of sexual mul- tiplication-and only when it is a step in marketing. Under the majority's broad definition of "marketing," prohibiting sexual multiplication "as a step in marketing" can be no broader than prohibiting sexual multiplication "as a step in selling," because all steps in marketing are, ultimately, steps 513us1$14I 03-28-98 15:18:23 PAGES OPINPGT 194 ASGROW SEED CO. v. WINTERBOER Stevens, J., dissenting in selling. If "marketing" can be no broader than "selling," and if Congress did not intend the two terms to be coexten- sive, then "marketing" must encompass something less than all "selling." The statute as a whole-and as interpreted by the Court of Appeals-indicates that Congress intended to preserve the farmer's right to engage in so-called "brown-bag sales" of seed to neighboring farmers. Congress limited that right by the express requirement that such sales may not consti- tute the "primary farming occupation" of either the buyer or the seller. Moreover, § 2541(a)(3) makes it abundantly clear that the unauthorized participation in "marketing" of protected varieties is taboo. If one interprets "marketing" to refer to a subcategory of selling activities, namely, mer- chandising through farm cooperatives, wholesalers, retailers, or other commercial distributors, the entire statute seems to make sense. I think Congress wanted to allow any ordinary brown-bag sale from one farmer to another; but, as the Court of Appeals concluded, it did not want to permit farmers to compete with seed manufacturers on their own ground, through "extensive or coordinated selling activities, such as advertising, using an intervening sales representative, or similar extended merchandising or retail activities." 982 F. 2d 486, 492 (CA Fed. 1992). This reading of the statute is consistent with our time- honored practice of viewing restraints on the alienation of property with disfavor. See, e. g., Sexton v. Wheaton, 8 Wheat. 229, 242 (1823) (opinion of Marshall, C. J.).* The seed at issue is part of a crop planted and harvested by a farmer on his own property.

The Ninth Circuit reversed, holding that respondent's agreement that any statements he made in the plea discussion could be used at trial for impeachment purposes was unenforceable under Federal Rule of Evidence 410 and Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11(e)(6) (Rules or plea-statement Rules), which exclude from admission into evidence against a criminal defendant statements made during plea bargaining. Held: An agreement to waive the plea-statement Rules' exclusionary pro- visions is valid and enforceable absent some affirmative indication that the defendant entered the agreement unknowingly or involuntarily. Pp. 200­211. (a) Contrary to the Ninth Circuit's conclusion, the Rules' failure to include an express waiver-enabling clause does not demonstrate Con- gress' intent to preclude waiver agreements such as respondent's. Rather, the Rules were enacted against a background presumption that legal rights generally, and evidentiary provisions specifically, are subject to waiver by voluntary agreement of the parties. See, e. g., Ricketts v. Adamson, 483 U. S. 1, 10; Sac and Fox Indians of Miss. in Iowa v. Sac and Fox Indians of Miss. in Okla., 220 U. S. 481, 488­489. Crosby v. United States, 506 U. S. 255, 259, and Smith v. United States, 360 U. S. 1, 9, distinguished. Respondent bears the responsibility of identifying some affirmative basis for concluding that the Rules depart from the presumption of waivability. Pp. 200­203. (b) The three potential bases offered by respondent for concluding that the Rules are not consonant with the presumption of waivability- (a) that the Rules establish a "guarantee [to] fair procedure" that cannot be waived, (b) that waiver is fundamentally inconsistent with the Rules' goal of encouraging voluntary settlement, and (c) that waiver agree- ments should be forbidden because they invite prosecutorial overreach- ing and abuse-are not persuasive. Instead of the per se rejection of waiver adopted by the Ninth Circuit, the appropriate approach is to permit case-by-case inquiries into whether waiver agreements are the 513us1$15Z 03-30-98 08:23:27 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 196 (1995) 197 Opinion of the Court product of fraud or coercion. Here, respondent conferred with his law- yer after the prosecutor proposed waiver as a condition of proceeding with the plea discussion, and he has never complained that he entered into the waiver agreement at issue unknowingly or involuntarily.

Federal Rule of Evidence 410 and Federal Rule of Crimi- nal Procedure 11(e)(6) provide that statements made in the course of plea discussions between a criminal defendant and a prosecutor are inadmissible against the defendant. The court below held that these exclusionary provisions may not be waived by the defendant. We granted certiorari to re- solve a conflict among the Courts of Appeals, and we now reverse. I On August 1, 1991, San Diego Narcotics Task Force agents arrested Gordon Shuster after discovering a methamphet- amine laboratory at his residence in Rainbow, California. Shuster agreed to cooperate with the agents, and a few hours *John J. Cleary filed a brief for the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers et al. as amici curiae urging affirmance. 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:27 PAGES OPINPGT 198 UNITED STATES v. MEZZANATTO Opinion of the Court after his arrest he placed a call to respondent's pager. When respondent returned the call, Shuster told him that a friend wanted to purchase a pound of methamphetamine for $13,000. Shuster arranged to meet respondent later that day. At their meeting, Shuster introduced an undercover officer as his "friend." The officer asked respondent if he had "brought the stuff with him," and respondent told the officer it was in his car. The two proceeded to the car, where re- spondent produced a brown paper package containing ap- proximately one pound of methamphetamine. Respondent then presented a glass pipe (later found to contain metham- phetamine residue) and asked the officer if he wanted to take a "hit." The officer indicated that he would first get re- spondent the money; as the officer left the car, he gave a prearranged arrest signal. Respondent was arrested and charged with possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute, in violation of 84 Stat. 1260, as amended, 21 U. S. C. § 841(a)(1). On October 17, 1991, respondent and his attorney asked to meet with the prosecutor to discuss the possibility of cooper- ating with the Government. The prosecutor agreed to meet later that day. At the beginning of the meeting, the prose- cutor informed respondent that he had no obligation to talk, but that if he wanted to cooperate he would have to be com- pletely truthful. As a condition to proceeding with the dis- cussion, the prosecutor indicated that respondent would have to agree that any statements he made during the meeting could be used to impeach any contradictory testimony he might give at trial if the case proceeded that far. Respond- ent conferred with his counsel and agreed to proceed under the prosecutor's terms. Respondent then admitted knowing that the package he had attempted to sell to the undercover police officer con- tained methamphetamine, but insisted that he had dealt only in "ounce" quantities of methamphetamine prior to his ar- 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 196 (1995) 199 Opinion of the Court rest. Initially, respondent also claimed that he was acting merely as a broker for Shuster and did not know that Shus- ter was manufacturing methamphetamine at his residence, but he later conceded that he knew about Shuster's labora- tory. Respondent attempted to minimize his role in Shus- ter's operation by claiming that he had not visited Shuster's residence for at least a week before his arrest. At this point, the Government confronted respondent with surveil- lance evidence showing that his car was on Shuster's prop- erty the day before the arrest, and terminated the meeting on the basis of respondent's failure to provide completely truthful information. Respondent eventually was tried on the methamphet- amine charge and took the stand in his own defense. He maintained that he was not involved in methamphetamine trafficking and that he had thought Shuster used his home laboratory to manufacture plastic explosives for the CIA. He also denied knowing that the package he delivered to the undercover officer contained methamphetamine. Over defense counsel's objection, the prosecutor cross-examined respondent about the inconsistent statements he had made during the October 17 meeting. Respondent denied having made certain statements, and the prosecutor called one of the agents who had attended the meeting to recount the prior statements. The jury found respondent guilty, and the District Court sentenced him to 170 months in prison. A panel of the Ninth Circuit reversed, over the dissent of Chief Judge Wallace. 998 F. 2d 1452 (1993). The Ninth Circuit held that respondent's agreement to allow admission of his plea statements for purposes of impeachment was un- enforceable and that the District Court therefore erred in admitting the statements for that purpose. We granted cer- tiorari because the Ninth Circuit's decision conflicts with the Seventh Circuit's decision in United States v. Dortch, 5 F. 3d 1056, 1067­1068 (1993). 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT 200 UNITED STATES v. MEZZANATTO Opinion of the Court II Federal Rule of Evidence 410 and Federal Rule of Crimi- nal Procedure 11(e)(6) (Rules or plea-statement Rules) are substantively identical. Rule 410 provides: "Except as otherwise provided in this rule, evidence of the following is not, in any civil or criminal proceeding, admissible against the defendant who . . . was a partici- pant in the plea discussions: . . . (4) any statement made in the course of plea discussions with an attorney for the prosecuting authority which do not result in a plea of guilty . . . ." The Ninth Circuit noted that these Rules are subject to only two express exceptions,1 neither of which says anything about waiver, and thus concluded that Congress must have meant to preclude waiver agreements such as respondent's. 998 F. 2d, at 1454­1456. In light of the "precision with which these rules are generally phrased," the Ninth Circuit declined to "write in a waiver in a waiverless rule." Id., at 1456.2 The Ninth Circuit's analysis is directly contrary to the ap- proach we have taken in the context of a broad array of con- stitutional and statutory provisions. Rather than deeming waiver presumptively unavailable absent some sort of ex- 1 A statement made by a criminal defendant in the course of plea discus- sions is "admissible (i) in any proceeding wherein another statement made in the course of the same . . . plea discussions has been introduced and the statement ought in fairness be considered contemporaneously with it, or (ii) in a criminal proceeding for perjury or false statement if the statement was made by the defendant under oath, on the record and in the presence of counsel." Fed. Rule Evid. 410. Accord, Fed. Rule Crim. Proc. 11(e)(6). 2 Respondent also goes to great lengths to establish a proposition that is not at issue in this case: that the plea-statement Rules do not contain a blanket "impeachment" exception. We certainly agree that the Rules give a defendant the right not to be impeached by statements made during plea discussions, but that conclusion says nothing about whether the de- fendant may relinquish that right by voluntary agreement. 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 196 (1995) 201 Opinion of the Court press enabling clause, we instead have adhered to the oppo- site presumption. See Shutte v. Thompson, 15 Wall. 151, 159 (1873) ("A party may waive any provision, either of a contract or of a statute, intended for his benefit"); Peretz v. United States, 501 U. S. 923, 936 (1991) ("The most basic rights of criminal defendants are . . . subject to waiver"). A criminal defendant may knowingly and voluntarily waive many of the most fundamental protections afforded by the Constitution. See, e. g., Ricketts v. Adamson, 483 U. S. 1, 10 (1987) (double jeopardy defense waivable by pretrial agree- ment); Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U. S. 238, 243 (1969) (know- ing and voluntary guilty plea waives privilege against com- pulsory self-incrimination, right to jury trial, and right to confront one's accusers); Johnson v. Zerbst, 304 U. S. 458, 465 (1938) (Sixth Amendment right to counsel may be waived). Likewise, absent some affirmative indication of Congress' intent to preclude waiver, we have presumed that statutory provisions are subject to waiver by voluntary agreement of the parties. See, e. g., Evans v. Jeff D., 475 U. S. 717, 730­ 732 (1986) (prevailing party in civil-rights action may waive its statutory eligibility for attorney's fees). Our cases interpreting the Federal Rules of Criminal Pro- cedure are consistent with this approach. The provisions of those Rules are presumptively waivable, though an express waiver clause may suggest that Congress intended to occupy the field and to preclude waiver under other, unstated cir- cumstances. See Crosby v. United States, 506 U. S. 255 (1993); Smith v. United States, 360 U. S. 1 (1959). In Crosby, for example, we held that a defendant's failure to appear for any part of his trial did not constitute a valid waiver of his right to be present under Federal Rule of Criminal Proce- dure 43. We noted that the specific right codified in Rule 43 "was considered unwaivable in felony cases" at common law, and that Rule 43 expressly recognized only one excep- tion to the common-law rule. 506 U. S., at 259. In light of the specific common-law history behind Rule 43 and the ex- 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT 202 UNITED STATES v. MEZZANATTO Opinion of the Court press waiver provision in the Rule, we declined to conclude that "the drafters intended the Rule to go further." Id., at 260. Our decision in Smith followed a similar line of reason- ing. It held that waiver of the indictment requirement em- bodied in Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 7(a) is confined to the specific circumstances outlined in the Rule's text: "Rule 7(a) recognizes that this safeguard may be waived, but only in those proceedings which are noncapital." 360 U. S., at 9. Unlike Rules 43 and 7(a), however, the plea-statement Rules make no mention of waiver, and so Crosby and Smith provide no basis for setting aside the usual presumption. The presumption of waivability has found specific applica- tion in the context of evidentiary rules. Absent some "over- riding procedural consideration that prevents enforcement of the contract," courts have held that agreements to waive evidentiary rules are generally enforceable even over a party's subsequent objections. 21 C. Wright & K. Graham, Federal Practice and Procedure § 5039, pp. 207­208 (1977) (hereinafter Wright & Graham). Courts have "liberally enforced" agreements to waive various exclusionary rules of evidence. Note, Contracts to Alter the Rules of Evidence, 46 Harv. L. Rev. 138, 139­140 (1933). Thus, at the time of the adoption of the Federal Rules of Evidence, agreements as to the admissibility of documentary evidence were rou- tinely enforced and held to preclude subsequent objections as to authenticity. See, e. g., Tupman Thurlow Co. v. S. S. Cap Castillo, 490 F. 2d 302, 309 (CA2 1974); United States v. Wing, 450 F. 2d 806, 811 (CA9 1971). And although hearsay is inadmissible except under certain specific exceptions, we have held that agreements to waive hearsay objections are enforceable. See Sac and Fox Indians of Miss. in Iowa v. Sac and Fox Indians of Miss. in Okla., 220 U. S. 481, 488­ 489 (1911); see also United States v. Bonnett, 877 F. 2d 1450, 1458­1459 (CA10 1989) (party's stipulation to admissibility of document precluded hearsay objection at trial). 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 196 (1995) 203 Opinion of the Court Indeed, evidentiary stipulations are a valuable and inte- gral part of everyday trial practice. Prior to trial, parties often agree in writing to the admission of otherwise objec- tionable evidence, either in exchange for stipulations from opposing counsel or for other strategic purposes. Both the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure appear to contemplate that the parties will enter into evidentiary agreements during a pretrial con- ference. See Fed. Rule Civ. Proc. 16(c)(3); Fed. Rule Crim. Proc. 17.1. During the course of trial, parties frequently de- cide to waive evidentiary objections, and such tactics are routinely honored by trial judges. See 21 Wright & Graham § 5032, at 161 ("It is left to the parties, in the first instance, to decide whether or not the rules are to be enforced. . . . It is only in rare cases that the trial judge will . . . exclude evidence they are content to see admitted"); see also United States v. Coonan, 938 F. 2d 1553, 1561 (CA2 1991) (criminal defendant not entitled "to evade the consequences of an un- successful tactical decision" made in welcoming admission of otherwise inadmissible evidence).3 III Because the plea-statement Rules were enacted against a background presumption that legal rights generally, and evidentiary provisions specifically, are subject to waiver by voluntary agreement of the parties, we will not interpret 3 Respondent contends that a pretrial agreement to waive the exclusion- ary provisions of the plea-statement Rules is unlike a typical stipulation, which is entered into while the case is in progress, and is more like an extrajudicial agreement made outside the context of litigation. Brief for Respondent 39. While it may be true that extrajudicial contracts made prior to litigation trigger closer judicial scrutiny than stipulations made within the context of litigation, see 21 Wright & Graham § 5039, at 206, there is nothing extrajudicial about the waiver agreement at issue here. The agreement was made in the course of a plea discussion aimed at resolving the specific criminal case that was "in progress" against respondent. 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT 204 UNITED STATES v. MEZZANATTO Opinion of the Court Congress' silence as an implicit rejection of waivability. Re- spondent bears the responsibility of identifying some af- firmative basis for concluding that the plea-statement Rules depart from the presumption of waivability. Respondent offers three potential bases for concluding that the Rules should be placed beyond the control of the parties. We find none of them persuasive. A Respondent first suggests that the plea-statement Rules establish a "guarantee [to] fair procedure" that cannot be waived. Brief for Respondent 12. We agree with respond- ent's basic premise: There may be some evidentiary provi- sions that are so fundamental to the reliability of the factfinding process that they may never be waived without irreparably "discredit[ing] the federal courts." See 21 Wright & Graham § 5039, at 207­208; see also Wheat v. United States, 486 U. S. 153, 162 (1988) (court may decline a defendant's waiver of his right to conflict-free counsel); United States v. Josefik, 753 F. 2d 585, 588 (CA7 1985) ("No doubt there are limits to waiver; if the parties stipulated to trial by 12 orangutans the defendant's conviction would be invalid notwithstanding his consent, because some minimum of civilized procedure is required by community feeling regardless of what the defendant wants or is willing to accept"). But enforcement of agreements like respondent's plainly will not have that effect. The admission of plea statements for impeachment purposes enhances the truth- seeking function of trials and will result in more accurate verdicts. Cf. Jenkins v. Anderson, 447 U. S. 231, 238 (1980) (once a defendant decides to testify, he may be required to face impeachment on cross-examination, which furthers the " `function of the courts of justice to ascertain the truth' ") (quoting Brown v. United States, 356 U. S. 148, 156 (1958)); Note, 46 Harv. L. Rev., at 142­143 ("[A] contract to deprive the court of relevant testimony . . . stands on a different 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 196 (1995) 205 Opinion of the Court ground than one admitting evidence that would otherwise have been barred by an exclusionary rule. One contract is an impediment to ascertaining the facts, the other aids in the final determination of the true situation") (footnote omitted). Under any view of the evidence, the defendant has made a false statement, either to the prosecutor during the plea dis- cussion or to the jury at trial; making the jury aware of the inconsistency will tend to increase the reliability of the ver- dict without risking institutional harm to the federal courts. Respondent nevertheless urges that the plea-statement Rules are analogous to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 24(c), which provides that "[a]n alternate juror who does not replace a regular juror shall be discharged after the jury retires to consider its verdict." Justice Kennedy's con- currence in United States v. Olano, 507 U. S. 725, 741 (1993), suggested that the guarantees of Rule 24(c) may never be waived by an agreement to permit alternate jurors to sit in on jury deliberations, and respondent asks us to extend that logic to the plea-statement Rules. But even if we assume that the requirements of Rule 24(c) are "the product of a judgment that our jury system should be given a stable and constant structure, one that cannot be varied by a court with or without the consent of the parties," id., at 742, the plea- statement Rules plainly do not satisfy this standard. Rules 410 and 11(e)(6) "creat[e], in effect, a privilege of the defend- ant," 2 J. Weinstein & M. Berger, Weinstein's Evidence ¶ 410[05], p. 410­43 (1994), and, like other evidentiary privi- leges, this one may be waived or varied at the defendant's request. The Rules provide that statements made in the course of plea discussions are inadmissible "against" the de- fendant, and thus leave open the possibility that a defendant may offer such statements into evidence for his own tactical advantage. Indeed, the Rules contemplate this result in permitting admission of statements made "in any proceeding wherein another statement made in the course of the same . . . plea discussions has been introduced and the statement 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT 206 UNITED STATES v. MEZZANATTO Opinion of the Court ought in fairness be considered contemporaneously with it." Fed. Rule Evid. 410(i) (emphasis added); accord, Fed. Rule Crim. Proc. 11(e)(6)(i). Thus, the plea-statement Rules ex- pressly contemplate a degree of party control that is conso- nant with the background presumption of waivability.4 B Respondent also contends that waiver is fundamentally inconsistent with the Rules' goal of encouraging voluntary settlement. See Advisory Committee's Notes on Fed. Rule Evid. 410 (purpose of Rule is "promotion of disposition of criminal cases by compromise"). Because the prospect of waiver may make defendants "think twice" before entering into any plea negotiation, respondent suggests that enforce- ment of waiver agreements acts "as a brake, not as a facilita- tor, to the plea-bargain process." Brief for Respondent 23, n. 17. The Ninth Circuit expressed similar concerns, noting that Rules 410 and 11(e)(6) "aid in obtaining th[e] coopera- tion" that is often necessary to identify and prosecute the leaders of a criminal conspiracy and that waiver of the pro- tections of the Rules "could easily have a chilling effect on the entire plea bargaining process." 998 F. 2d, at 1455. Ac- cording to the Ninth Circuit, the plea-statement Rules "per- mit the plea bargainer to maximize what he has `to sell' " by preserving "the ability to withdraw from the bargain pro- posed by the prosecutor without being harmed by any of his 4 The Ninth Circuit relied on Brooklyn Savings Bank v. O'Neil, 324 U. S. 697 (1945), but that case is easily distinguishable in this regard. Brooklyn Savings Bank held that certain statutory entitlements guaranteed to em- ployees by the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 were unwaivable because the structure and legislative history of the Act evinced a specific "legisla- tive policy" of "prevent[ing] private contracts" on such matters. Id., at 706. Respondent has identified nothing in the structure or history of the plea-statement Rules that suggests that they were aimed at preventing private bargaining; in fact, the above discussion suggests that the Rules adopt a contrary view. 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 196 (1995) 207 Opinion of the Court statements made in the course of an aborted plea bargaining session." Ibid. We need not decide whether and under what circum- stances substantial "public policy" interests may permit the inference that Congress intended to override the presump- tion of waivability, for in this case there is no basis for concluding that waiver will interfere with the Rules' goal of encouraging plea bargaining. The court below focused entirely on the defendant's incentives and completely ig- nored the other essential party to the transaction: the prose- cutor. Thus, although the availability of waiver may dis- courage some defendants from negotiating, it is also true that prosecutors may be unwilling to proceed without it. Prosecutors may be especially reluctant to negotiate with- out a waiver agreement during the early stages of a criminal investigation, when prosecutors are searching for leads and suspects may be willing to offer information in exchange for some form of immunity or leniency in sentencing. In this "cooperation" context, prosecutors face "painfully delicate" choices as to "whether to proceed and prosecute those sus- pects against whom the already produced evidence makes a case or whether to extend leniency or full immunity to some suspects in order to procure testimony against other, more dangerous suspects against whom existing evidence is flimsy or nonexistent." Hughes, Agreements for Cooperation in Criminal Cases, 45 Vand. L. Rev. 1, 15 (1992). Because prosecutors have limited resources and must be able to answer "sensitive questions about the credibility of the testimony" they receive before entering into any sort of co- operation agreement, id., at 10, prosecutors may condition cooperation discussions on an agreement that the testimony provided may be used for impeachment purposes. See Thompson & Sumner, Structuring Informal Immunity, 8 Crim. Just. 16, 19 (spring 1993). If prosecutors were pre- cluded from securing such agreements, they might well de- cline to enter into cooperation discussions in the first place 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT 208 UNITED STATES v. MEZZANATTO Opinion of the Court and might never take this potential first step toward a plea bargain.5 Indeed, as a logical matter, it simply makes no sense to conclude that mutual settlement will be encouraged by pre- cluding negotiation over an issue that may be particularly important to one of the parties to the transaction. A sounder way to encourage settlement is to permit the inter- ested parties to enter into knowing and voluntary negotia- tions without any arbitrary limits on their bargaining chips. To use the Ninth Circuit's metaphor, if the prosecutor is interested in "buying" the reliability assurance that ac- companies a waiver agreement, then precluding waiver can only stifle the market for plea bargains. A defendant can "maximize" what he has to "sell" only if he is permitted to offer what the prosecutor is most interested in buying. And while it is certainly true that prosecutors often need help from the small fish in a conspiracy in order to catch the big ones, that is no reason to preclude waiver altogether. If prosecutors decide that certain crucial information will be gained only by preserving the inadmissibility of plea state- ments, they will agree to leave intact the exclusionary provi- sions of the plea-statement Rules. 5 We cannot agree with the dissent's conclusion that the policies ex- pressed in the Advisory Committee's Notes to the plea-statement Rules indicate congressional animosity toward waivability. The Advisory Com- mittee's Notes always provide some policy justification for the exclusion- ary provisions in the Rules, yet those policies merely justify the default rule of exclusion; they do not mean that the parties can never waive the default rule. Indeed, the dissent is unwilling to accept the logical result of its approach, which would require a wholesale rejection of the back- ground presumption of party control over evidentiary provisions. Hear- say, for example, is generally excluded because it tends to lack "trustwor- thiness," see Advisory Committee's Notes on Article VIII of the Fed. Rules of Evid., 28 U. S. C. App., p. 770, yet even the dissent concedes that the hearsay rules are "waivable beyond any question," post, at 212. Thus, the mere existence of a policy justification for the plea-statement Rules cannot provide a sound basis for rejecting the background presump- tion of waivability. 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 196 (1995) 209 Opinion of the Court In sum, there is no reason to believe that allowing nego- tiation as to waiver of the plea-statement Rules will bring plea bargaining to a grinding halt; it may well have the oppo- site effect.6 Respondent's unfounded policy argument thus provides no basis for concluding that Congress intended to prevent criminal defendants from offering to waive the plea-statement Rules during plea negotiation. C Finally, respondent contends that waiver agreements should be forbidden because they invite prosecutorial over- reaching and abuse. Respondent asserts that there is a "gross disparity" in the relative bargaining power of the par- ties to a plea agreement and suggests that a waiver agree- ment is "inherently unfair and coercive." Brief for Re- spondent 26. Because the prosecutor retains the discretion to "reward defendants for their substantial assistance" under the Sentencing Guidelines, respondent argues that defend- ants face an " `incredible dilemma' " when they are asked to accept waiver as the price of entering plea discussions. Ibid. (quoting Green v. United States, 355 U. S. 184, 193 (1957)). The dilemma flagged by respondent is indistinguishable from any of a number of difficult choices that criminal de- fendants face every day. The plea bargaining process neces- 6 Respondent has failed to offer any empirical support for his apocalyptic predictions, and data compiled by the Administrative Office of the United States Courts appear to contradict them. Prior to the Ninth Circuit's decision in this case (when, according to the Solicitor General, federal prosecutors in that Circuit used waiver agreements like the one invali- dated by the court below, see Pet. for Cert. 10­11), approximately 92.2% of the convictions in the Ninth Circuit were secured through pleas of guilty or nolo contendere. Annual Report of the Director, Administrative Office of the United States Courts, Judicial Business of the United States Courts 278 (1992) (Table D­7). During that same period, about 88.8% of the convictions in all federal courts were secured by voluntary pleas. Id., at 276. 513us1$15N 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT 210 UNITED STATES v.

Corbitt v. New Jersey, 439 U. S. 212, 219 (1978). "While con- fronting a defendant with the risk of more severe pun- ishment clearly may have a `discouraging effect on the de- fendant's assertion of his trial rights, the imposition of these difficult choices [is] an inevitable'-and permissible- `attribute of any legitimate system which tolerates and encourages the negotiation of pleas.'

S. 1, 14­15 (1926) ("[I]n the absence of clear evi- dence to the contrary, courts presume that [public officers] have properly discharged their official duties"). Thus, al- though some waiver agreements "may not be the product of an informed and voluntary decision," this possibility "does not justify invalidating all such agreements." Newton, supra, at 393 (majority opinion). Instead, the appropriate response to respondent's predictions of abuse is to permit case-by-case inquiries into whether waiver agreements are the product of fraud or coercion. We hold that absent some affirmative indication that the agreement was entered into unknowingly or involuntarily, an agreement to waive the ex- clusionary provisions of the plea-statement Rules is valid and enforceable.

S. 196 (1995) 211 Souter, J., dissenting discussion, and he has never complained that he entered into the waiver agreement at issue unknowingly or involuntarily. The Ninth Circuit's decision was based on its per se rejection of waiver of the plea-statement Rules. Accordingly, the judgment of the Court of Appeals is reversed. It is so ordered. Justice Ginsburg, with whom Justice O'Connor and Justice Breyer join, concurring. The Court holds that a waiver allowing the Government to impeach with statements made during plea negotiations is compatible with Congress' intent to promote plea bargain- ing. It may be, however, that a waiver to use such state- ments in the case in chief would more severely undermine a defendant's incentive to negotiate, and thereby inhibit plea bargaining. As the Government has not sought such a waiver, we do not here explore this question. Justice Souter, with whom Justice Stevens joins, dissenting. This case poses only one question: did Congress intend to create a personal right subject to waiver by its individual beneficiaries when it adopted Rule 410 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and Rule 11(e)(6) of the Federal Rules of Crimi- nal Procedure, each Rule providing that statements made during plea discussions are inadmissible against the defend- ant except in two carefully described circumstances? The case raises no issue of policy to be settled by the courts, and if the generally applicable (and generally sound) judicial policy of respecting waivers of rights and privileges should conflict with a reading of the Rules as reasonably construed to accord with the intent of Congress, there is no doubt that congressional intent should prevail. Because the majority ruling is at odds with the intent of Congress and will render the Rules largely dead letters, I respectfully dissent. 513us1$15M 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT 212 UNITED STATES v. MEZZANATTO Souter, J., dissenting At first glance, the question of waivability may seem short on substance, given the unconditional language of the two virtually identical Rules, unsoftened by any provision for waiver or allusion to that possibility: "Except as otherwise provided in this rule, evidence . . . is not . . . admissible against the defendant who . . . was a participant in . . . plea discussions [of] . . . . . "any statement made in the course of plea discussions with an attorney for the prosecuting authority which do not result in a plea of guilty . . . [subject to two stated exceptions]." Fed. Rule Evid. 410. Believers in plain meaning might be excused for thinking that the text answers the question. But history may have something to say about what is plain, and here history is not silent. If the Rules are assumed to create only a personal right of a defendant, the right arguably finds itself in the company of other personal rights, including constitutional ones, that have been accepted time out of mind as being freely waivable. See, e. g., Johnson v. Zerbst, 304 U. S. 458, 465 (1938) (Sixth Amendment right to counsel may be waived). The possibility that the Rules in question here do create such a personal right must, indeed, be taken seriously if for no other reason than that the Rules of Evidence contain other bars to admissibility equally uncompromising on their face but nonetheless waivable beyond any question. See Fed. Rule Evid. 802 (hearsay); Fed. Rule Evid. 1002 (best evidence). The majority comes down on the side of waivability through reliance on the general presumption in favor of rec- ognizing waivers of rights, including evidentiary rights. To be sure, the majority recognizes that the presumption does not necessarily resolve the issue before us, and the majority opinion describes some counterexamples of rights that are insulated against waiver, at least when waiver is expressly 513us1$15M 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 196 (1995) 213 Souter, J., dissenting prohibited or limited in terms that speak of waiver expressly. See Crosby v. United States, 506 U. S. 255 (1993); Smith v. United States, 360 U. S. 1 (1959). Still, the majority seems to assume that the express-waiver cases describe the only circumstances in which the recognition of waiver is fore- closed, and since the Rules in question here say nothing about "waiver" as such, the majority finds that fact really to be the end of the matter. If there were nothing more to go on here, I, too, would join the majority in relying on the fallback rule of permissi- ble waiver. But there is more to go on. There is, indeed, good reason to believe that Congress rejected the general rule of waivability when it passed the Rules in issue here, and once the evidence of such congressional intent is squarely faced, we have no business but to respect it (or de- flect it by applying some constitutionally mandated require- ment of clear statement). There is, of course, no claim in this case that Congress should be hobbled by any clear state- ment rule, and the result is that we are bound to respect the intent that the Advisory Committee's Notes to the congres- sionally enacted Rules reveal. See Williamson v. United States, 512 U. S. 594, 614­615 (1994) (Kennedy, J., concur- ring in judgment) (citing cases in which Advisory Commit- tee's Notes are taken as authoritative evidence of intent). The fact underlying those Notes, and the fact of which all congressional and judicial action must take account in deal- ing with the possible evidentiary significance of plea discus- sions, is that the federal judicial system could not possibly litigate every civil and criminal case filed in the courts. The consequence of this is that plea bargaining is an accepted feature of the criminal justice system, and, "[p]roperly ad- ministered, it is to be encouraged." Santobello v. New York, 404 U. S. 257, 260 (1971). Thus the Advisory Committee's Notes on Rule 410 explained that "[e]xclusion of offers to plead guilty or nolo has as its purpose the promotion of dis- position of criminal cases by compromise." 28 U. S. C. App., 513us1$15M 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT 214 UNITED STATES v. MEZZANATTO Souter, J., dissenting p. 750. "As with compromise offers generally, . . . free com- munication is needed, and security against having an offer of compromise or related statement admitted in evidence ef- fectively encourages it." Ibid. The Advisory Committee's Notes on Rule 11(e)(6) drew the same conclusion about the purpose of that Rule and summed up the object of both Rules as being "to permit the unrestrained candor which produces effective plea discussions between the attorney for the gov- ernment and the attorney for the defendant or the defendant when acting pro se." 18 U. S. C. App., p. 745 (1979 Amend- ment) (internal quotation marks omitted). These explanations show with reasonable clarity that Con- gress probably made two assumptions when it adopted the Rules: pleas and plea discussions are to be encouraged, and conditions of unrestrained candor are the most effective means of encouragement. The provisions protecting a de- fendant against use of statements made in his plea bargain- ing are thus meant to create something more than a personal right shielding an individual from his imprudence. Rather, the Rules are meant to serve the interest of the federal judi- cial system (whose resources are controlled by Congress), by creating the conditions understood by Congress to be effec- tive in promoting reasonable plea agreements. Whether Congress was right or wrong that unrestrained candor is necessary to promote a reasonable number of plea agree- ments, Congress assumed that there was such a need and meant to satisfy it by these Rules. Since the zone of unre- strained candor is diminished whenever a defendant has to stop to think about the amount of trouble his openness may cause him if the plea negotiations fall through, Congress must have understood that the judicial system's interest in candid plea discussions would be threatened by recognizing waivers under Rules 410 and 11(e)(6). See ABA Standards for Criminal Justice 14­3.4, commentary (2d ed. 1980) (a rule contrary to the one adopted by Congress "would discourage plea negotiations and agreements, for defendants would have 513us1$15M 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 196 (1995) 215 Souter, J., dissenting to be constantly concerned whether, in light of their plea negotiation activities, they could successfully defend on the merits if a plea ultimately was not entered"). There is, in- deed, no indication that Congress intended merely a regime of such limited openness as might happen to survive market forces sufficient to supplant a default rule of inadmissibility. Nor may Congress be presumed to have intended to permit waivers that would undermine the stated policy of its own Rules. Brooklyn Savings Bank v. O'Neil, 324 U. S. 697, 704 (1945) ("Where a private right is granted in the public interest to effectuate a legislative policy, waiver of a right so charged or colored with the public interest will not be allowed where it would thwart the legislative policy which it was designed to effectuate"). It bears emphasizing that I would not suggest that there is only one reasonable balance possible between society's in- terest in encouraging compromise (which Congress thought to be served most effectively by refusing to recognize waiv- ers of rights under these Rules) and society's interest in pro- viding a vigorous adversary system when cases are tried (which may be served by recognizing waivers). The major- ity may be right that a better balance could have been struck than the one Congress intended. The majority may also be correct as a matter of policy that enough pleas will result even if parties are allowed to make their own rule of admissi- bility by agreement, with prosecutors refusing to talk with- out a defendant's waiver (unless such refusal overloads the system beyond its capacity for trials) and defendants refus- ing to waive (unless they are desperate enough to forgo their option to be tried without fear of compromising statements if the plea negotiations fail). But whether the majority is right or wrong on either score is beside the point; the policy it endorses is not the policy that Congress intended when it enacted the Rules. See Touche Ross & Co. v. Redington, 442 U. S. 560, 578 (1979) ("The ultimate question is one of congressional intent, not one of whether this Court thinks 513us1$15M 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT 216 UNITED STATES v. MEZZANATTO Souter, J., dissenting that it can improve upon the statutory scheme that Congress enacted into law"). The unlikelihood that Congress intended the modest de- fault rule that the majority sees in Rules 11(e)(6) and 410 looms all the larger when the consequences of the majority position are pursued. The first consequence is that the Rules will probably not even function as default rules, for there is little chance that they will be applied at all. Al- ready, standard forms indicate that many federal prosecutors routinely require waiver of Rules 410 and 11(e)(6) rights be- fore a prosecutor is willing to enter into plea discussions. Pet. for Cert. 10­11. See also United States v. Stevens, 935 F. 2d 1380, 1396 (CA3 1991) ("Plea agreements . . . commonly contain a provision stating that proffer information that is disclosed during the course of plea negotiations is . . . admis- sible for purposes of impeachment"). As the Government conceded during oral argument, defendants are generally in no position to challenge demands for these waivers, and the use of waiver provisions as contracts of adhesion has become accepted practice.1 Today's decision can only speed the heretofore illegitimate process by which the exception has been swallowing the Rules. See, e. g., Guidry v. Sheet Metal Workers Nat. Pension Fund, 493 U. S. 365, 377 (1990) (no exception should be made by Court because it would be too difficult to "carve out an exception that would not swal- low the rule"); United States v. Powell, 469 U.

The Court's obli- gation is to interpret criminal procedure and evidentiary rules according to congressional intent. If the Government believes that the better rule is different from what is currently the law, the Government can petition Congress to change it. See TVA v. Hill, 437 U. S. 153, 194 (1978) ("Our individual appraisal of the wisdom or unwisdom of a particular course consciously selected by the Congress is to be put aside in the process of interpreting a statute"). 513us1$15M 03-30-98 08:23:28 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

Gra- ham, Federal Practice and Procedure 121­122, n. 7.3 (1994 Supp.) ("It would seem strange if the prosecutor could under- mine the judicial policy, now endorsed by Congress, of en- couraging plea bargaining by announcing a policy that his office will only plea bargain with defendants who `waive' the benefits of Rule 410"). Accordingly, it is probably only a matter of time until the Rules are dead letters. The second consequence likely to emerge from today's de- cision is the practical certainty that the waiver demanded will in time come to function as a waiver of trial itself. It is true that many (if not all) of the waiver forms now em- ployed go only to admissibility for impeachment.2 But al- though the erosion of the Rules has begun with this trickle, the majority's reasoning will provide no principled limit to it. The Rules draw no distinction between use of a state- ment for impeachment and use in the Government's case in chief. If objection can be waived for impeachment use, it can be waived for use as affirmative evidence, and if the Gov- ernment can effectively demand waiver in the former in- stance, there is no reason to believe it will not do so just as successfully in the latter. When it does, there is nothing this Court will legitimately be able to do about it. The Court is construing a congressional Rule on the theory that Congress meant to permit its waiver. Once that point is passed, as it is today, there is no legitimate limit on admissi- bility of a defendant's plea negotiation statements beyond what the Constitution may independently impose or the traf- 2 Waiver for impeachment use, however, has been applied broadly. For example, plea statements have been used to impeach a defendant's wit- nesses even where the defendant has chosen not to testify. See United States v. Dortch, 5 F. 3d 1056, 1069 (CA7 1993) ("[J]ust as the defendant must choose whether to protect the proffer statements by not taking the stand, the defendant must choose whether to protect the proffer by care- fully determining which lines of questioning to pursue with different wit- nesses"), cert. pending sub nom.

Just what the traffic may bear is an open ques- tion, but what cannot be denied is that the majority opinion sanctions a demand for waiver of such scope that a defendant who gives it will be unable even to acknowledge his desire to negotiate a guilty plea without furnishing admissible evi- dence against himself then and there. In such cases, the possibility of trial if no agreement is reached will be reduced to fantasy. The only defendant who will not damage himself by even the most restrained candor will be the one so desper- ate that he might as well walk into court and enter a naked guilty plea. It defies reason to think that Congress in- tended to invite such a result, when it adopted a Rule said to promote candid discussion in the interest of encouraging compromise. 513us1$16z 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT OCTOBER TERM, 1994 219 Syllabus AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS et al. certiorari to the supreme court of illinois No. 93­1286. Argued November 1, 1994-Decided January 18, 1995 In consolidated state-court class actions brought in Illinois, plaintiffs (re- spondents here), as participants in American Airlines' frequent flyer program, challenged American's retroactive changes in program terms and conditions-particularly, American's imposition of capacity controls (limits on seats available to passengers obtaining tickets with frequent flyer credits) and blackout dates (restrictions on dates such credits could be used). Plaintiffs alleged that application of these changes to mileage credits they had previously accumulated violated the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act (Consumer Fraud Act or Act) and constituted a breach of contract. American answered that the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978 (ADA), 49 U. S. C. App. § 1305(a)(1), preempted plaintiffs' claims. The ADA prohibits States from "enact- [ing] or enforc[ing] any law . . . or other provision having the force and effect of law relating to [air carrier] rates, routes, or services." While the Illinois class-action litigation was sub judice, this Court decided Morales v. Trans World Airlines, Inc., 504 U. S. 374. Morales defined § 1305(a)(1)'s "relating to" language to mean "having a connec- tion with, or reference to, airline `rates, routes, or services,' " id., at 384, and held that National Association of Attorneys General (NAAG) guidelines on airline fare advertising were preempted under that defi- nition. The Illinois Supreme Court, post-Morales, ruled that plaintiffs' monetary claims survived for state-court adjudication. Those claims related only "tangential[ly]" or "tenuous[ly]" to "rates, routes, or serv- ices," the Illinois court reasoned, because frequent flyer programs are "peripheral," not "essential," to an airline's operation. Held: The ADA's preemption prescription bars state-imposed regulation of air carriers, but allows room for court enforcement of contract terms set by the parties themselves. Pp. 226­235. (a) Morales does not countenance the Illinois Supreme Court's sepa- ration of "essential" operations from unessential programs. Plaintiffs' complaints, accordingly, state claims "relating to" air carrier "rates" (i. e., American's charges, in the form of mileage credits, for tickets and class-of-service upgrades) and "services" (i. e., access to flights and up- grades unlimited by retrospectively applied capacity controls and black- out dates). P. 226. 513us1$16z 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT 220 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Syllabus (b) The full text of the ADA's preemption clause, and the congres- sional purpose to leave largely to the airlines themselves, and not at all to States, the selection and design of marketing mechanisms appropriate to the furnishing of air transportation services, impel the conclusion that § 1305(a)(1) preempts plaintiffs' Consumer Fraud Act claims. The Illinois Act is prescriptive, controlling the primary conduct of those fall- ing within its governance; the Act, indeed, is paradigmatic of the state consumer protection laws that underpin the NAAG guidelines. Those guidelines highlight the potential for intrusive regulation of airline busi- ness practices inherent in state consumer protection legislation. The guidelines illustrate that the Illinois Act does not simply give effect to bargains offered by the airlines and accepted by customers, but serves as a means to guide and police airline marketing practices. Pp. 227­228. (c) The ADA, however, does not bar court adjudication of routine breach-of-contract claims. The preemption clause leaves room for suits alleging no violation of state-imposed obligations, but seeking recovery solely for the airline's breach of its own, self-imposed undertakings. As persuasively argued by the United States, terms and conditions airlines offer and passengers accept are privately ordered obligations and thus do not fit within the compass of state enactments and directives tar- geted by § 1305(a)(1). A remedy confined to a contract's terms simply holds parties to their agreements-in this instance, to business judg- ments an airline made public about its rates and services. Court en- forcement of private agreements advances the market efficiency that the ADA was designed to promote, and comports with provisions of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 (FAA) and related Department of Trans- portation (DOT) regulations that presuppose the vitality of contracts governing air carrier transportation. Such enforcement is responsive to the reality that the DOT lacks the apparatus and resources required to superintend a contract dispute resolution regime. Court adjudica- tion of routine breach-of-contract claims, furthermore, accords due recognition to Congress' retention of the FAA's saving clause, which preserves "the remedies now existing at common law or by statute." Nor can it be maintained that plaintiffs' breach-of-contract claims are identical to, and therefore should be preempted to the same extent as, their Consumer Fraud Act claims. The basis for a contract action is the parties' agreement; to succeed under the state Act, one need not show an agreement, but must show an unfair or deceptive practice. Pp. 228­233. (d) American's argument that plaintiffs' claims must fail because they depend on state policies independent of the parties' intent assumes the answer to the very contract construction issue on which plaintiffs' claims turn: Did American, by contract, reserve the right to change the 513us1$16z 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

WOLENS Opinion of the Court [air carrier] rates, routes, or services." 49 U. S. C. App. § 1305(a)(1). This case concerns the scope of that preemp- tive provision, specifically, its application to a state-court suit, brought by participants in an airline's frequent flyer program, challenging the airline's retroactive changes in terms and conditions of the program. We hold that the ADA's preemption prescription bars state-imposed regula- tion of air carriers, but allows room for court enforcement of contract terms set by the parties themselves. I A Until 1978, the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 (FAA), 72 Stat. 731, as amended, 49 U. S. C. App. § 1301 et seq. (1988 ed. and Supp. V), empowered the Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) to regulate the interstate airline industry. Although the FAA, pre-1978, authorized the Board both to regulate fares and to take administrative action against deceptive trade practices, the federal legislation originally contained no clause preempting state regulation. And from the start, the FAA has contained a "saving clause," § 1106, 49 U. S. C. App. § 1506, stating: "Nothing . . . in this chapter shall in any way abridge or alter the remedies now existing at common law or by statute, but the provisions of this chapter are in addition to such remedies." In 1978, Congress enacted the Airline Deregulation Act (ADA), 92 Stat. 1705, which largely deregulated domestic air transport. "To ensure that the States would not undo fed- eral deregulation with regulation of their own," Morales v. Trans World Airlines, Inc., 504 U. S. 374, 378 (1992), the ADA included a preemption clause which read in relevant part: "[N]o State . . . shall enact or enforce any law, rule, regulation, standard, or other provision having the force 513us1$16P 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 219 (1995) 223 Opinion of the Court and effect of law relating to rates, routes, or services of any air carrier . . . ." 49 U. S. C. App. § 1305(a)(1).1 This case is our second encounter with the ADA's preemp- tion clause. In 1992, in Morales, we confronted detailed Travel Industry Enforcement Guidelines, composed by the National Association of Attorneys General (NAAG). The NAAG guidelines purported to govern, inter alia, the con- tent and format of airline fare advertising. See Morales, 504 U. S., at 393­418 (appendix to Court's opinion setting out NAAG guidelines on air travel industry advertising and marketing practices). Several States had endeavored to enforce the NAAG guidelines, under the States' general consumer protection laws, to stop allegedly deceptive air- line advertisements. The States' initiative, we determined, " `relat[ed] to [airline] rates, routes, or services,' " id., at 378­ 379 (quoting 49 U. S. C. App. § 1305(a)(1)); consequently, we held, the fare advertising provisions of the NAAG guidelines were preempted by the ADA, id., at 391. For aid in construing the ADA words "relating to rates, routes, or services of any air carrier," the Court in Morales referred to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), which provides for preemption of state laws "insofar as they . . . relate to any employee benefit plan." 29 U. S. C. § 1144(a). Under the ERISA, we had ruled, a state law "relates to" an employee benefit plan "if it has a connection with or reference to such a plan." Shaw v. Delta Air Lines, Inc., 463 U. S. 85, 97 (1983). Morales analogously defined the "relating to" language in the ADA preemption clause as "having a connection with, or reference to, airline `rates, routes, or services.' " Morales, 504 U. S., at 384. 1 Reenacting Title 49 of the U. S. Code in 1994, Congress revised this clause to read: "[A] State . . . may not enact or enforce a law, regulation, or other provision having the force and effect of law related to a price, route, or service of an air carrier . . . ." § 41713(b)(1). Congress intended the revision to make no substantive change. Pub. L. 103­272, § 1(a), 108 Stat. 745. 513us1$16P 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT 224 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of the Court The Morales opinion presented much more, however, in accounting for the ADA's preemption of the state regulation in question. The opinion pointed out that the concerned federal agencies-the Department of Transportation (DOT) 2 and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC)-objected to the NAAG fare advertising guidelines as inconsistent with the ADA's deregulatory purpose; both agencies, Morales ob- served, regarded the guidelines as state regulatory meas- ures preempted by the ADA. See id., at 379 (DOT and FTC); id., at 386 (DOT); id., at 390 (FTC). Morales empha- sized that the challenged guidelines set "binding require- ments as to how airline tickets may be marketed," and "im- posed [obligations that] would have a significant impact upon . . . the fares [airlines] charge." Id., at 388, 390. The opin- ion further noted that the airlines would not have "carte blanche to lie and deceive consumers," for "the DOT retains the power to prohibit advertisements which in its opinion do not further competitive pricing." Id., at 390­391. Morales also left room for state actions "too tenuous, remote, or peripheral . . . to have pre-emptive effect." Id., at 390 (in- ternal quotation marks omitted). B The litigation now before us, two consolidated state-court class actions brought in Illinois, was sub judice when we de- cided Morales. Plaintiffs in both actions (respondents here) are participants in American Airlines' frequent flyer pro- gram, AAdvantage. AAdvantage enrollees earn mileage credits when they fly on American.

Conceding that American had reserved the right to change AAdvantage terms and conditions, plaintiffs challenged only the retroactive application of modifications, i. e., cutbacks on the utility of credits previously accumu- lated. These cutbacks, plaintiffs maintained, violated the Il- linois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act (Consumer Fraud Act or Act), 815 Ill. Comp. Stat. § 505 (1992) (formerly codified at Ill. Rev. Stat., ch. 1211/2, ¶ 261 et seq. (1991)), and constituted a breach of contract. Plaintiffs currently seek only monetary relief.3 In March 1992, several weeks before our decision in Mo- rales, the Illinois Supreme Court rejected plaintiffs' prayer for an injunction. Such a decree, the Illinois court reasoned, would involve regulation of an airline's current rendition of services, a matter preempted by the ADA. That court, however, allowed the breach-of-contract and Consumer Fraud Act monetary relief claims to survive. The ADA's preemption clause, the Illinois court said, ruled out "only those State laws and regulations that specifically relate to and have more than a tangential connection with an airline's rates, routes or services." American Airlines, Inc. v. Wo- lens, 147 Ill. 2d 367, 373, 589 N. E. 2d 533, 536 (1992). After our decision in Morales, American petitioned for certiorari. The airline charged that the Illinois court, in a decision out of sync with Morales, had narrowly construed the ADA's broadly preemptive § 1305(a)(1). We granted the petition, 3 Plaintiffs no longer pursue requests they originally made for injunctive relief, or for punitive damages for alleged breach of contract. See Brief for Respondents 2, n. 2 (plaintiffs do not here contest holding of Illinois courts that injunctive relief is preempted); id., at 6, n. 9 (plaintiffs "concede that punitive damages traditionally have not been recoverable for a simple breach of contract"). 513us1$16P 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT 226 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of the Court vacated the judgment of the Supreme Court of Illinois, and remanded for further consideration in light of Morales. American Airlines, Inc. v. Wolens, 506 U. S. 803 (1992). On remand, the Illinois Supreme Court, with one dissent, adhered to its prior judgment. Describing frequent flyer programs as not "essential," 157 Ill. 2d 466, 472, 626 N. E. 2d 205, 208 (1993), but merely "peripheral to the operation of an airline," ibid., the Illinois court typed plaintiffs' state-law claims for money damages as "relat[ed] to American's rates, routes, and services" only "tangential[ly]" or "tenuous[ly]," ibid. We granted American's second petition for certiorari, 511 U. S. 1017 (1994), and we now reverse the Illinois Supreme Court's judgment to the extent that it allowed survival of plaintiffs' Consumer Fraud Act claims; we affirm that judg- ment, however, to the extent that it permits plaintiffs' breach-of-contract action to proceed. In both respects, we adopt the position of the DOT, as advanced in this Court by the United States. II We need not dwell on the question whether plaintiffs' com- plaints state claims "relating to [air carrier] rates, routes, or services." Morales, we are satisfied, does not countenance the Illinois Supreme Court's separation of matters "essen- tial" from matters unessential to airline operations. Plain- tiffs' claims relate to "rates," i. e., American's charges in the form of mileage credits for free tickets and upgrades, and to "services," i. e., access to flights and class-of-service up- grades unlimited by retrospectively applied capacity controls and blackout dates. But the ADA's preemption clause contains other words in need of interpretation, specifically, the words "enact or enforce any law" in the instruction: "[N]o State . . . shall enact or enforce any law . . . relating to [air carrier] rates, routes, or services." 49 U. S. C. App. § 1305(a)(1). Taking into account all the words Congress placed in § 1305(a)(1), we first consider whether plaintiffs' 513us1$16P 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 219 (1995) 227 Opinion of the Court claims under the Consumer Fraud Act are preempted, and then turn to plaintiffs' breach-of-contract claims. A The Consumer Fraud Act declares unlawful "[u]nfair methods of competition and unfair or deceptive acts or practices, including but not limited to the use or employment of any deception, fraud, false pretense, false promise, misrepresentation or the concealment, suppres- sion or omission of any material fact, with intent that others rely upon the concealment, suppression or omis- sion of such material fact, or the use or employment of any practice described in Section 2 of the `Uniform De- ceptive Trade Practices Act' . . . in the conduct of any trade or commerce . . . whether any person has in fact been misled, deceived or damaged thereby." Ill. Comp. Stat., ch. 815, § 505/2 (1992) (formerly codified at Ill. Rev. Stat., ch. 1211/2, ¶ 262 (1991)). The Act is prescriptive; it controls the primary conduct of those falling within its governance. This Illinois law, in fact, is paradigmatic of the consumer protection legislation under- pinning the NAAG guidelines. The NAAG Task Force on the Air Travel Industry, on which the Attorneys General of California, Illinois, Texas, and Washington served, see Mo- rales, 504 U. S., at 392, reported that the guidelines created no "new laws or regulations regarding the advertising practices or other business practices of the airline indus- try. They merely explain in detail how existing state laws apply to air fare advertising and frequent flyer pro- grams." Ibid. The NAAG guidelines highlight the potential for intru- sive regulation of airline business practices inherent in state consumer protection legislation typified by the Con- 513us1$16P 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT 228 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of the Court sumer Fraud Act. For example, the guidelines enforcing the legislation instruct airlines on language appropriate to reserve rights to alter frequent flyer programs, and they include transition rules for the fair institution of capacity controls. See Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 13­14, n. 7. As the NAAG guidelines illustrate, the Consumer Fraud Act serves as a means to guide and police the marketing practices of the airlines; the Act does not simply give effect to bargains offered by the airlines and accepted by airline customers. In light of the full text of the preemption clause, and of the ADA's purpose to leave largely to the airlines themselves, and not at all to States, the selection and design of marketing mechanisms appropriate to the furnishing of air transportation services,4 we conclude that § 1305(a)(1) pre- empts plaintiffs' claims under the Consumer Fraud Act. B American maintains, and we agree, that "Congress could hardly have intended to allow the States to hobble [competi- tion for airline passengers] through the application of restric- tive state laws." Brief for Petitioner 27. We do not read the ADA's preemption clause, however, to shelter airlines from suits alleging no violation of state-imposed obligations, but seeking recovery solely for the airline's alleged breach of its own, self-imposed undertakings. As persuasively ar- gued by the United States, terms and conditions airlines offer and passengers accept are privately ordered obligations 4 We note again, however, that the DOT retains authority to investigate unfair and deceptive practices and unfair methods of competition by air- lines, and may order an airline to cease and desist from such practices or methods of competition. See FAA § 411, 49 U. S. C. App. § 1381(a); Mo- rales, 504 U. S., at 379; see also Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 3, and n. 2 (reporting that in 1993, the DOT issued 34 cease-and-desist orders and assessed more than $1.8 million in civil penalties in aviation economic enforcement proceedings). 513us1$16P 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

Cf. Cipollone v. Liggett Group, Inc., 505 U.

A remedy confined to a contract's terms simply holds parties to their agreements-in this in- stance, to business judgments an airline made public about its rates and services.6 5 The United States recognizes that § 1305(a)(1), because it contains the word "enforce" as well as "enact," "could perhaps be read to preempt even state-court enforcement of private contracts." Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 17. But the word series "law, rule, regulation, standard, or other provision," as the United States suggests, "connotes official, government-imposed policies, not the terms of a private contract." Id., at 16. Similarly, the phrase "having the force and effect of law" is most naturally read to "refe[r] to binding standards of conduct that operate irrespective of any private agreement." Ibid. Finally, the ban on enact- ing or enforcing any law "relating to rates, routes, or services" is most sensibly read, in light of the ADA's overarching deregulatory purpose, to mean "States may not seek to impose their own public policies or theories of competition or regulation on the operations of an air carrier." Ibid. 6 American notes that in Norfolk & Western R. Co. v. Train Dispatchers, 499 U. S. 117, 129 (1991), the Court read the word "law" in a statutory exemption, 49 U. S. C. § 11341(a), to include "laws that govern the obliga- tions imposed by contract." But that statute and case are not comparable to the statute and case before us. Norfolk & Western concerned the au- thority of the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) to approve rail car- rier consolidations. A carrier participating in an ICC-approved consolida- tion is exempt "from the antitrust laws and from all other law . . . as necessary to let [the participant] carry out the transaction." 49 U. S. C. § 11341(a). We read the exemption clause to empower the ICC to over- ride, individually, a carrier's obligations under a collective-bargaining agreement. Our reading accorded with the ICC's and "ma[de] sense of the consolidation provisions," 499 U. S., at 132: "If § 11341(a) did not apply 513us1$16P 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT 230 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of the Court The ADA, as we recognized in Morales, 504 U. S., at 378, was designed to promote "maximum reliance on competitive market forces." 49 U. S. C. App. § 1302(a)(4). Market effi- ciency requires effective means to enforce private agree- ments. See Farber, Contract Law and Modern Economic Theory, 78 Nw. U. L. Rev. 303, 315 (1983) (remedy for breach of contract "is necessary in order to ensure economic effi- ciency"); R. Posner, Economic Analysis of Law 90­91 (4th ed. 1992) (legal enforcement of contracts is more efficient than a purely voluntary system). As stated by the United States: "The stability and efficiency of the market depend fundamen- tally on the enforcement of agreements freely made, based on needs perceived by the contracting parties at the time." Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 23. That reality is key to sensible construction of the ADA. The FAA's text, we note, presupposes the vitality of con- tracts governing transportation by air carriers. Section 411(b), 49 U. S. C. App. § 1381(b), thus authorizes airlines to "incorporate by reference in any ticket or other written in- strument any of the terms of the contract of carriage" to the extent authorized by the DOT. And the DOT's regulations contemplate that, upon the January 1, 1983, termination of domestic tariffs, "ticket contracts" ordinarily would be en- forceable under "the contract law of the States." 47 Fed. Reg. 52129 (1982). Correspondingly, the DOT requires car- riers to give passengers written notice of the time period within which they may "bring an action against the carrier for its acts." 14 CFR § 253.5(b)(2) (1994). American does not suggest that its contracts lack legal force. American sees the DOT, however, as the exclusively competent monitor of the airline's undertakings. American to bargaining agreements . . . , rail carrier consolidations would be difficult, if not impossible, to achieve," id., at 133. Similarly in this case, our read- ing of the statutory formulation accords with that of the superintending agency, here, the DOT, and is necessary to make sense of the statute as a whole. 513us1$16P 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 219 (1995) 231 Opinion of the Court points to the Department's authority to require any airline, in conjunction with its certification, to file a performance bond conditioned on the airline's "making appropriate com- pensation . . . , as prescribed by the [Department], for failure . . . to perform air transportation services in accordance with agreements therefor." FAA § 401(q)(2), 49 U. S. C. App. § 1371(q)(2).7 But neither the DOT nor its predecessor, the CAB, has ever construed or applied this provision to displace courts as adjudicators in air carrier contract disputes. In- stead, these agencies have read the provision to charge them with a less taxing task: In passing on air carrier fitness under FAA § 401(d), 49 U. S. C. App. § 1371(d)(1), the DOT and the CAB have used their performance bond authority to ensure that, when a carrier's financial fitness is marginal, funds will be available to compensate customers if the carrier goes under before providing already-paid-for services. See, e. g., U. S. Bahamas Service Investigation, CAB Order 79­11­ 116, p. 3, 84 CAB Reports 73, 75 (1979) ("We . . . find that Southeast [Airlines] is fit to provide scheduled foreign air transportation. However, because of Southeast's current financial condition its operations present an unacceptable risk of financial loss to consumers. Therefore, we shall re- quire the carrier . . . to procure and maintain a bond for the protection of passengers who have paid for transportation not yet performed."). 7 The preceding subsection, FAA § 401(q)(1), 49 U. S. C. App. § 1371(q)(1), requires an air carrier to have insurance, in an amount prescribed by the DOT, to cover claims for personal injuries and property losses "resulting from the operation or maintenance of aircraft." See Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 19­20, and n. 12. American does not urge that the ADA preempts personal injury claims relating to airline operations. See Tr. of Oral Arg. 4 (acknowledgment by counsel for petitioner that "safety claims," for example, a negligence claim arising out of a plane crash, "would generally not be preempted"); Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 20, n. 12 ("It is . . . unlikely that Section 1305(a) (1) preempts safety-related personal-injury claims relating to airline operations."). 513us1$16P 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT 232 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of the Court The United States maintains that the DOT has neither the authority nor the apparatus required to superintend a con- tract dispute resolution regime. See Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 22. Prior to airline deregulation, the CAB set rates, routes, and services through a cumbersome administrative process of applications and approvals. 72 Stat. 731. When Congress dismantled that regime, the United States emphasizes, the lawmakers indicated no inten- tion to establish, simultaneously, a new administrative proc- ess for DOT adjudication of private contract disputes. See Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 22. We agree. Nor is it plausible that Congress meant to channel into federal courts the business of resolving, pursuant to judi- cially fashioned federal common law, the range of contract claims relating to airline rates, routes, or services. The ADA contains no hint of such a role for the federal courts. In this regard, the ADA contrasts markedly with the ERISA, which does channel civil actions into federal courts, see ERISA §§ 502(a), (e), 29 U. S. C. §§ 1132(a), (e), under a comprehensive scheme, detailed in the legislation, designed to promote "prompt and fair claims settlement." Pilot Life Ins. Co. v. Dedeaux, 481 U. S. 41, 54 (1987); see Ingersoll- Rand Co. v. McClendon, 498 U. S. 133, 143­145 (1990) (find- ing ERISA's comprehensive civil enforcement scheme a "spe- cial feature" supporting preemption of common-law wrongful discharge claims). The conclusion that the ADA permits state-law-based court adjudication of routine breach-of-contract claims also makes sense of Congress' retention of the FAA's saving clause, § 1106, 49 U. S. C. App. § 1506 (preserving "the reme- dies now existing at common law or by statute"). The ADA's preemption clause, § 1305(a)(1), read together with the FAA's saving clause, stops States from imposing their own substantive standards with respect to rates, routes, or serv- ices, but not from affording relief to a party who claims and proves that an airline dishonored a term the airline itself 513us1$16P 03-28-98 15:41:55 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 219 (1995) 233 Opinion of the Court stipulated. This distinction between what the State dic- tates and what the airline itself undertakes confines courts, in breach-of-contract actions, to the parties' bargain, with no enlargement or enhancement based on state laws or policies external to the agreement.8 American suggests that plaintiffs' breach-of-contract and Consumer Fraud Act claims differ only in their labels, so that if Fraud Act claims are preempted, contract claims must be preempted as well. See Reply Brief 6. But a breach of contract, without more, "does not amount to a cause of action cognizable under the [Consumer Fraud] Act and the Act should not apply to simple breach of contract claims." Go- lembiewski v. Hallberg Ins. Agency, Inc., 262 Ill. App. 3d 1082, 1093, 635 N. E. 2d 452, 460 (1st Dist. 1994). The basis for a contract action is the parties' agreement; to succeed under the consumer protection law, one must show not neces- sarily an agreement, but in all cases, an unfair or deceptive practice. III American ultimately argues that even under the position on preemption advanced by the United States-the one we adopt-plaintiffs' claims must fail because they "inescapably depend on state policies that are independent of the intent of the parties." Reply Brief 3. "The state court cannot reach the merits," American contends, "unless it first invali- dates or limits [American's] express reservation of the right 8 The United States notes in this regard that "[s]ome state-law principles of contract law . . . might well be preempted to the extent they seek to effectuate the State's public policies, rather than the intent of the parties." Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 28. Because contract law is not at its core "diverse, nonuniform, and confusing," Cipollone v. Liggett Group, Inc., 505 U. S. 504, 529 (1992) (plurality opinion), we see no large risk of nonuniform adjudication inherent in "[s]tate-court enforcement of the terms of a uniform agreement prepared by an airline and entered into with its passengers nationwide."

WOLENS Opinion of the Court to change AAdvantage Program rules contained in AAdvan- tage contracts." Ibid. American's argument is unpersuasive, for it assumes the answer to the very contract construction issue on which plaintiffs' claims turn: Did American, by contract, reserve the right to change the value of already accumulated mileage credits, or only to change the rules governing credits earned from and after the date of the change? See Brief for Re- spondents 5 (plaintiffs recognize that American "reserved the right to restrict, suspend, or otherwise alter aspects of the Program prospectively," but maintain that American "never reserved the right to retroactively diminish the value of the credits previously earned by members"). That ques- tion of contract interpretation has not yet had a full airing, and we intimate no view on its resolution. Responding to our colleagues' diverse opinions dissenting in part, we add a final note. This case presents two issues that run all through the law. First, who decides (here, courts or the DOT, the latter lacking contract dispute resolu- tion resources for the task)? On this question, all agree to this extent: None of the opinions in this case would foist on the DOT work Congress has neither instructed nor funded the Department to do. Second, where is it proper to draw the line (here, between what the ADA preempts, and what it leaves to private ordering, backed by judicial enforcement)? Justice Stevens reads our Morales decision to demand only minimal preemption; in contrast, Justice O'Connor reads the same case to mandate total preemption.9 The middle course we adopt seems to us best calculated to carry out the congressional design; it also bears the approval of the statute's experienced administrator, the DOT. And while we adhere to our holding in Morales, we do not over- look that in our system of adjudication, principles seldom can 9 Justice O'Connor's "all is pre-empted" position leaves room for per- sonal injury claims, but only by classifying them as matters not "relating to [air carrier] services."

Although I agree with the majority that the Airline De- regulation Act of 1978 (ADA) does not pre-empt respond- ents' breach-of-contract claims, I do not agree with the Court's disposition of their consumer-fraud claims. In my opinion, private tort actions based on common-law negli- gence or fraud, or on a statutory prohibition against fraud, are not pre-empted. Under the broad (and in my opinion incorrect 1) interpretation of the words "law . . . relating to rates, routes, or services" that the Court adopted in Morales v. Trans World Airlines, Inc., 504 U. S. 374 (1992), direct state regulation of airline advertising is pre-empted; but I would not extend the holding of that case to embrace the private claims that respondents assert in this case. Unlike the National Association of Attorneys General (NAAG) guidelines reviewed in Morales, the Illinois Con- sumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act (Con- sumer Fraud Act) does not instruct the airlines about how they can market their services. Instead, it merely requires 1 See Morales v. Trans World Airlines, Inc., 504 U. S. 374, 419­427 (1992) (dissenting opinion). 513us1$16I 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT 236 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of Stevens, J. all commercial enterprises-airlines included-to refrain from defrauding their customers. The Morales opinion said nothing about pre-empting general state laws prohibiting fraud. The majority's extension of the ADA's pre-emptive reach from airline-specific advertising standards to a general background rule of private conduct represents an alarming enlargement of Morales' holding. I see no reason why a state law requiring an airline to honor its contractual commitments is any less a law relating to its rates and services than is a state law imposing a "duty not to make false statements of material fact or to conceal such facts." Cipollone v. Liggett Group, Inc., 505 U. S. 504, 528 (1992) (finding similar claim not to be pre-empted under Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act). In this case, the two claims are grounded upon the exact same con- duct and would presumably have an identical impact upon American's rates, routes, and services. The majority cor- rectly finds that Congress did not intend to pre-empt a claim that an airline breached a private agreement. I see no rea- son why the ADA should pre-empt a claim that the airline defrauded its customers in the making and performance of that very same agreement. I would analogize the Consumer Fraud Act to a codifica- tion of common-law negligence rules. Under ordinary tort principles, every person has a duty to exercise reasonable care toward all other persons with whom he comes into con- tact. Presumably, if an airline were negligent in a way that somehow affected its rates, routes, or services,2 and the vic- tim of the airline's negligence were to sue in state court, the majority would not hold all common-law negligence rules to be pre-empted by the ADA. See ante, at 231, n. 7. Like contract principles, the standard of ordinary care is a general 2 Indeed, every judgment against an airline will have some effect on rates, routes, or services, at least at the margin. In response to adverse judgments, airlines may have to raise rates, or curtail routes or services, to make up for lost income. 513us1$16I 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

Surely Congress did not intend to give airlines free rein to commit negligent acts subject only to the supervision of the Department of Transportation, any more than it meant to allow airlines to breach contracts with impunity. See ante, at 230­233. And, if judge-made duties are not pre- empted, it would make little sense to find pre-emption of identical rules codified by the state legislature. The duty imposed by the Consumer Fraud Act is to refrain from com- mitting fraud in commercial dealings-it is "the duty not to deceive." Cipollone, 505 U. S., at 529. This is neither a novel nor a controversial proscription. It falls no more heavily upon airlines than upon any other business. It is no more or less a state-imposed "public policy" than a negli- gence rule. In sum, I see no difference between the duty to refrain from deception and the duty of reasonable care, and I see no meaningful difference between the enforcement of either duty and the enforcement of a private agreement. The majority's extension of Morales is particularly unten- able in light of the interpretive presumption against pre- emption. As in Cipollone, I believe there is insufficient evi- dence of congressional intent to supersede laws of general applicability to justify a finding that the ADA pre-empts either the contract or the fraud claim. Cipollone, 505 U. S., at 525­530; see also Morales, 504 U. S., at 419­421 (Stevens, J., dissenting) (discussing presumption against pre-emption as an incident of federalism). Indeed, the presumption against pre-emption is especially appropriate to the ADA be- cause Congress retained the "saving clause" preserving state "remedies now existing at common law or by statute." 49 U. S. C. App. § 1506. Accordingly, while I join the Court's disposition of the breach-of-contract claims,3 I would affirm the entire judg- ment of the Supreme Court of Illinois. 3 Accordingly, I join Part I, except for the last paragraph, and Part II­B of the Court's opinion. 513us1$16J 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT 238 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of O'Connor, J. Justice O'Connor, with whom Justice Thomas joins as to all but Part I­B, concurring in the judgment in part and dissenting in part. In permitting respondents' contract action to go forward, the Court arrives at what might be a reasonable policy judg- ment as to when state law actions against airlines should be pre-empted if we were free to legislate it. It is not, how- ever, consistent with our controlling precedents, and it re- quires some questionable assumptions about the nature of contract law. I would hold that none of respondents' actions may proceed. I A The Airline Deregulation Act of 1978 (ADA) says that "no State . . . shall enact or enforce any law, rule, regulation, standard, or other provision having the force and effect of law relating to rates, routes, or services of any air carrier." 49 U. S. C. App. § 1305(a)(1).1 We considered the scope of that provision in Morales v. Trans World Airlines, Inc., 504 U. S. 374 (1992). We noted the similarity of § 1305's lan- guage to the pre-emption provision in ERISA, 29 U. S. C. § 1144(a), and said that, like ERISA's § 1144, § 1305's words "express a broad pre-emptive purpose." 504 U. S., at 383. We concluded that "State enforcement actions having a connection with, or reference to, airline `rates, routes, or services' are pre-empted." Id., at 384. Applying Morales to this case, I agree with the Court that respondents' consumer fraud and contract claims are "related to" airline "rates" and "services." See ante, at 226. The Court says, however, that judicial enforcement of a contract's 1 Congress has recently amended this statute to read: "[A] State . . . may not enact or enforce a law, regulation, or other provision having the force and effect of law related to a price, route, or service of an air carrier." 49 U.

S. 219 (1995) 239 Opinion of O'Connor, J. terms, in accordance with state contract law, does not amount to a "State . . . enforc[ing] any law," § 1305, but in- stead is simply a State "hold[ing] parties to their agree- men[t]." See ante, at 229, and n. 5. It therefore concludes that § 1305 does not apply to respondents' contract actions. I cannot agree with that conclusion. I do not understand the Court to say that a State only "enforces" its "law" when some state employee (e. g., an at- torney general, or a judge) orders someone to do something. If that were the meaning of "enforce" in this context, then a diversity action brought by a private party under state law in federal court would never be subject to § 1305 pre- emption, because no state employee is involved, whereas the same action might be pre-empted in state court. That would make little sense, and federal courts have routinely considered § 1305 in determining whether a particular state law claim is pre-empted. E. g., Statland v. American Air- lines, Inc., 998 F. 2d 539, 541­542 (CA7) (contract claim pre- empted), cert. denied, 510 U. S. 1012 (1993); West v. North- west Airlines, Inc., 995 F. 2d 148, 151 (CA9 1993) (tort claim for punitive damages pre-empted), cert. denied, 510 U. S. 1111 (1994); Cannava v. USAir, Inc., No. 91­30003­F, 1993 WL 565341, *6 (D. Mass., Jan. 7, 1993) (tort and contract claims pre-empted). Consequently, one must read "no State . . . shall . . . enforce any law" to mean that no one may enforce state law against an airline when the "enforcement actio[n] ha[s] a connection with, or reference to, airline `rates, routes, or services.' " Morales, supra, at 384. This ex- plains the Court's conclusion, with which I agree, that pri- vate parties such as respondents may not enforce the Illinois consumer fraud law against petitioner in an action whose subject matter relates to airline rates and services. Ante, at 228. As I read § 1305 and Morales, however, respondents' con- tract claims also must be pre-empted. The Court recog- nizes, ante, at 227, that the "guidelines" at issue in Morales 513us1$16J 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT 240 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of O'Connor, J. did not " `create any new laws or regulations' applying to the airline industry; rather, they claim[ed] to `explain in detail how existing state laws apply to air fare advertising and fre- quent flyer programs.' " Morales, 504 U. S., at 379. None- theless, we stated our holding quite clearly: "We hold that the fare advertising provisions of the NAAG guidelines are pre-empted by [§ 1305]." Id., at 391. How can it be that the guidelines, which did not themselves constitute "law," were nonetheless pre-empted by a statute whose coverage is limited to "laws" or other "provision[s] having the force and effect of law"? The answer is that in Morales we held that an action to invoke the State's coercive power against an airline, by means of a generally applicable law, when the subject matter of the action related to airline rates, would constitute "Stat[e] . . . enforce[ment]" of a "law . . . relating to rates, routes, or services." Id., at 383 (internal quota- tion marks omitted). Accordingly, we held that § 1305 pre- empted the action. It is not the case, as Justice Stevens urges, that Morales was limited to "airline-specific advertis- ing standards." Ante, at 236. We examined the content of those standards-which had no binding force on their own- only to ascertain whether they "related to" airline rates (and we thought they "quite obviously" did). Morales, supra, at 387. The only "laws" at issue in Morales were generally applicable consumer fraud statutes, not facially related to airlines, much like the law at issue in respondents' consumer fraud claims here. The Court concludes, however, that § 1305 does not pre- empt enforcement, by means of generally applicable state law, of a private agreement relating to airline rates and serv- ices. I cannot distinguish this case from Morales. In both, the subject matter of the action (the guidelines in Morales, the contract here) relates to airline rates and services. In both, that subject matter has no legal force, except insofar as a generally applicable state law (a consumer fraud law in 513us1$16J 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 219 (1995) 241 Opinion of O'Connor, J. Morales, state contract law here 2) permits an aggrieved party to invoke the State's coercive power against someone refusing to comply with the subject matter's terms (the re- quirements of the guidelines in Morales, the terms of the contract here). Morales' conclusion that § 1305 pre-empts such an invocation is dispositive here, both of respondents' consumer fraud claims, and of their contract claims. The lower courts seem to agree; as far as I know, no court to have considered ADA pre-emption since we decided Morales has suggested that enforcement of state contract law does not fall within § 1305 if the necessary relation to airline rates, routes, or services exists. See, e. g., Statland v. American Airlines, supra, at 541­542 (contract claims pre-empted); West v. Northwest Airlines, supra, at 151­152 (contract claims not pre-empted because "too tenuously connected" to airline rates or services); Cannava v. USAir, Inc., supra, at *6 (contract claims pre-empted); Schaefer v. Delta Air- lines, No. 92­1170­E(LSP), 1992 WL 558954, *2 (SD Cal., Sept. 18, 1992) (same); Vail v. Pan Am Corp., 260 N. J. Super. 292, 299­300, 616 A. 2d 523, 526­527 (App. Div. 1992) (same); El-Menshawy v. Egypt Air, 276 N. J. Super. 121, 126, 647 A. 2d 491, 493 (Law Div. 1994) (same). The Court argues that the words "law, rule, regulation, standard, or other provision" in § 1305 refer only to " `official, government-imposed policies, not the terms of a private con- tract.' " Ante, at 229, n. 5 (quoting Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 17). To be sure, the terms of private con- tracts are not "laws," any more than the guidelines at issue in Morales were "laws." But contract law, and generally applicable consumer fraud statutes, are laws, and Morales held that § 1305 prevents enforcement of "any [state] law" against the airlines when the subject matter of the action 2 See Norfolk & Western R. Co. v. Train Dispatchers, 499 U. S. 117, 130 (1991) ("A contract has no legal force apart from the law that acknowledges its binding character"), discussed infra, at 243­244. 513us1$16J 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT 242 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of O'Connor, J. "relates" to airline rates, routes, or services. Thus, where the terms of a private contract relate to airline rates and services, and those terms can only be enforced through state law, Morales is indistinguishable. As Justice Stevens persuasively argues, there is "no reason why a state law re- quiring an airline to honor its contractual commitments is any less a law relating to its rates and services than is a state law imposing a `duty not to make false statements of material fact or to conceal such facts,' " ante, at 236. As the Court recognizes, ante, at 234, n. 9, my view of Morales does not mean that personal injury claims against airlines are always pre-empted. Many cases decided since Morales have allowed personal injury claims to proceed, even though none has said that a State is not "enforcing" its "law" when it imposes tort liability on an airline. In those cases, courts have found the particular tort claims at issue not to "relate" to airline "services," much as we suggested in Morales that state laws against gambling and prostitution would be too tenuously related to airline services to be pre- empted, see Morales, supra, at 390. E. g., Hodges v. Delta Airlines, Inc., 4 F. 3d 350, 353­356 (CA5 1993) (arguing that " `services' is not coextensive with airline `safety,' " so safety-related tort claim should not be pre-empted; urging en banc review to bring Circuit precedent into conformity with that view), rehearing en banc granted, 12 F. 3d 426 (1994); Public Health Trust v. Lake Aircraft, Inc., 992 F. 2d 291, 294­295 (CA11 1993) (tort claim for defective aircraft design not pre-empted because not related to airline serv- ices); Cleveland v.

Houston, 813 F. Supp. 515, 518 (SD Tex. 1993) (same). Our recent decision in Norfolk & Western R. Co. v. Train Dispatchers, 499 U. S. 117 (1991), is relevant. The question in that case was whether a rail carrier's statutory exemption from "all other law," which we read to mean "all law as necessary to carry out an ICC-approved transaction," id., at 129, exempted the carrier from contractually imposed obliga- tions. We held that it did. We noted that "[a] contract de- pends on a regime of common and statutory law for its effec- tiveness and enforcement," id., at 129­130, that "[a] contract has no legal force apart from the law that acknowledges its binding character," id., at 130, and that " `[l]aws which sub- sist at the time and place of the making of a contract, and where it is to be performed, enter into and form a part of it, as fully as if they had been expressly referred to or incorpo- rated in its terms," ibid. (quoting Farmers and Merchants Bank of Monroe v. Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, 262 U. S. 649, 660 (1923)). Accordingly, we concluded that "the exemption . . . from `all other law' effects an override of con- tractual obligations . . . by suspending application of the law that makes the contract binding." 499 U. S., at 130. In so concluding, we specifically rejected the Court of Appeals' views that the "all other law" exemption "[n]owhere . . . sa[id] that the ICC may also override contracts," and that it did not exempt the carrier from " `all legal obstacles.' " Brotherhood of R. Carmen v. ICC, 880 F. 2d 562, 567 (CADC 1989); see Norfolk & Western, supra, at 133­134. The Court does not dispute this reading of Norfolk & Western, which in my view makes clear that a State is en- forcing its "law" when it brings its coercive power to bear 513us1$16J 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT 244 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of O'Connor, J. on a party who has violated a contractual obligation. We reiterated in Norfolk & Western that "[t]he obligation of a contract is the law which binds the parties to perform their agreement." 499 U. S., at 129 (internal quotation marks omitted); see also Sturges v. Crowninshield, 4 Wheat. 122, 197 (1819) (Marshall, C. J.) ("A contract is an agreement, in which a party undertakes to do, or not to do, a particular thing. The law binds him to perform his undertaking, and this is, of course, the obligation of his contract"). We there- fore read the words "all other law" in the statutory exemp- tion broadly enough to "suspen[d] application of the law that makes the contract binding." Norfolk & Western, supra, at 130. I would give the words "any law" in § 1305 a similar reading. As support for its theory, the Court cites only a statement in the plurality opinion in Cipollone v. Liggett Group, Inc., 505 U. S. 504 (1992); see ante, at 229. The Cipollone plural- ity said that "a common-law remedy for a contractual com- mitment voluntarily undertaken should not be regarded as a `requirement . . . imposed under State law' within the mean- ing of § 5(b)." 505 U. S., at 526. But the plurality elabo- rated on this point in a footnote. In rejecting the argument that specific warranty obligations are "imposed under State law," the plurality agreed that pre-emption might be re- quired "if the Act pre-empted `liability' imposed under state law . . . ; but instead the Act expressly pre-empts only a `requirement or prohibition' imposed under state law." Id., at 526, n. 24. It agreed that contractual requirements are "only enforceable under state law," but argued that those requirements are " `imposed' by the contracting party upon itself." Ibid. The plurality thus distinguished the situation where substantive requirements contained in a contract are enforceable only under state law from the situation where state law itself imposes substantive requirements, and con- cluded that the statute before it pre-empted only the latter kind of state law. Here, as in Cipollone, the requirements 513us1$16J 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 219 (1995) 245 Opinion of O'Connor, J. at issue are contained in a contract, and have no legal force except insofar as state law makes them enforceable. But we concluded in Morales that § 1305 does pre-empt state law in those circumstances, unlike the statute in Cipollone. The difference between this case and Cipollone is the very differ- ent language in the two pre-emption statutes. The Court also concludes that § 1305 only "stops States from imposing their own substantive standards with respect to rates, routes, or services," ante, at 232. In Morales, however, we specifically rejected an interpretation of § 1305 that would have rewritten it to read: No State shall " `regu- late rates, routes, and services.' " See Morales, 504 U. S., at 385­386. There is little distinction between "regulating rates, routes, and services" and "imposing substantive stand- ards with respect to rates, routes, and services," and the Court does not explain how Morales' rejection of the former allows it now to adopt the latter. The Court relies on the statute's "saving clause," 49 U. S. C. App. § 1506, see ante, at 232, but we said in Morales that "[a] general `remedies' sav- ing clause cannot be allowed to supersede the specific sub- stantive pre-emption provision," particularly where, as here, "the `saving' clause is a relic of the pre-ADA/no pre-emption regime." Morales, 504 U. S., at 385. Without question, Morales gave § 1305 a broad pre- emptive sweep. The dissent in that case argued that such a broad interpretation went too far by pre-empting areas of traditional state regulation without a clear expression of congressional intent to do so. Id., at 421­424 (Stevens, J., dissenting); see also ante, at 235, 237 (Stevens, J., concur- ring in part and dissenting in part). But the Court rejected the dissent's reading, holding instead that § 1305's language demonstrated a clear "statutory intent" to expressly pre- empt generally applicable state law as long as the "particu- larized application" of that law relates to airline rates, routes, or services. Morales, supra, at 383, 386, and n. 2. 513us1$16J 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT 246 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of O'Connor, J. B Congress has recently revisited § 1305, and said that it "d[id] not intend to alter the broad preemption interpreta- tion adopted by the United States Supreme Court in Mo- rales," H. R. Conf. Rep. No. 103­677, p. 83 (1994). If the Court nonetheless believes that Morales misread § 1305, the proper course of action would be to overrule that case, de- spite Congress' apparent approval of it. The Court's read- ing of § 1305 is not, in my view, a " `closer working out' " of ADA pre-emption, see ante, at 235; rather, it is a new ap- proach that does not square with our decisions in Morales and Norfolk & Western. Stare decisis has "special force" in the area of statutory interpretation, see Allied-Bruce Terminix Cos. v. Dobson, post, at 284 (O'Connor, J., concurring) (internal quotation marks omitted). It sometimes requires adherence to a wrongly decided precedent. Post, at 283­284. Here, how- ever, Congress apparently does not think that our decision in Morales was wrong, nor do I. In the absence of any " `special justification,' " post, at 284 (quoting Arizona v. Rumsey, 467 U. S. 203, 212 (1984)), for departing from Mo- rales, I would recognize the import of Morales and Nor- folk & Western here, and render the decision that the lan- guage of § 1305, in light of those cases, compels. If, at the end of the day, Congress believes we have erred in interpret- ing § 1305, it remains free to correct our mistake. II Our decisions in Morales and Norfolk & Western suffice to decide this case along the lines I have described. In addi- tion, however, I disagree with the Court's view that courts can realistically be confined, "in breach-of-contract actions, to the parties' bargain, with no enlargement or enhancement based on state laws or policies external to the agreement." Ante, at 233. When they are so confined, the Court says, courts are "simply hold[ing] parties to their agreements," 513us1$16J 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 219 (1995) 247 Opinion of O'Connor, J. and are not "enforcing" any "law," ante, at 229. The Court also says that " `[s]ome state-law principles of contract law . . . might well be preempted to the extent they seek to effec- tuate the State's public policies, rather than the intent of the parties.' " Ante, at 233, n. 8 (quoting Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 28). The doctrinal underpinnings of the notion that judicial en- forcement of the "intent of the parties" can be divorced from a State's "public policy" have been in serious question for many years. As one author wrote some time ago: "A contract, therefore, between two or more individuals cannot be said to be generally devoid of all public inter- est. If it be of no interest, why enforce it? For note that in enforcing contracts, the government does not merely allow two individuals to do what they have found pleasant in their eyes. Enforcement, in fact, puts the machinery of the law in the service of one party against the other. When that is worthwhile and how that should be done are important questions of public policy. . . . [T]he notion that in enforcing contracts the state is only giving effect to the will of the parties rests upon an . . . untenable theory as to what the enforcement of contracts involves." Cohen, The Basis of Contract, 46 Harv. L. Rev. 553, 562 (1933). More recent authors have expressed similar views. See, e. g., Braucher, Contract Versus Contractarianism: The Reg- ulatory Role of Contract Law, 47 Wash. & Lee L. Rev. 697, 699 (1990) ("Mediating between private ordering and social concerns, contract is a socioeconomic institution that re- quires an array of normative choices. . . . The questions ad- dressed by contract law concern what social norms to use in the enforcement of contracts, not whether social norms will be used at all"). Contract law is a set of policy judgments concerning how to decide the meaning of private agreements, which private agreements should be legally enforceable, and 513us1$16J 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT 248 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of O'Connor, J. what remedy to afford for their breach. The Court fails to recognize that when a State decides to force parties to com- ply with a contract, it does so only because it is satisfied that state policy, as expressed in its contract law, will be ad- vanced by that decision. Thus, the Court's allowance that " `[s]ome state-law princi- ples of contract law . . . might well be preempted to the extent they seek to effectuate the State's public policies, rather than the intent of the parties,' " ante, at 233, n. 8 (quoting Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 28), threatens to swallow all of contract law. For example, the Court observes that on remand, the state court will be re- quired to decide whether petitioner reserved the right to alter the terms of its frequent flyer program retroactively, or instead only prospectively. Ante, at 234. The court will presumably decide that question by looking to the usual "rules" of contract interpretation to decide what the con- tract's language means. If the court finds the language to be ambiguous, it might invoke the familiar rule that the con- tract should be construed against its drafter, and thus that respondents should receive the benefit of the doubt. See 2 E. Farnsworth, Farnsworth on Contracts § 7.11, pp. 265­ 268 (1990) (hereinafter Farnsworth). That rule of contract construction is not essential to a functional contract system. It is a policy choice that our contract system has made. Other such policy choices are that courts should not enforce agreements unsupported by consideration, see 1 Farnsworth § 2.5; but cf. J. Barton, J. Gibbs, V. Li, & J. Merryman, Law in Radically Different Cultures 579 (1983) (other legal systems enforce certain agreements not supported by consideration); that courts should supply "reasonable" terms to fill "gaps" in incomplete contracts, see 2 Farnsworth §§ 7.15­7.17; the method by which courts should decide what terms to supply, see C. Fried, Contract as Promise 60, 69­73 (1981); Charny, Hypothetical Bargains: The Normative Structure of Con- tract Interpretation, 89 Mich. L. Rev. 1815, 1816, 1820­1823 513us1$16J 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 219 (1995) 249 Opinion of O'Connor, J. (1991); Ayres & Gertner, Filling Gaps in Incomplete Con- tracts: An Economic Theory of Default Rules, 99 Yale L. J. 87, 91 (1989) (all suggesting different policy considerations that should inform how courts fill contractual gaps); and that a breach of contract entitles the aggrieved party to expecta- tion damages most of the time, but specific performance only rarely, see 3 Farnsworth, ch. 12; but cf. R. David & J. Brier- ley, Major Legal Systems in the World Today 302 (1985) (for- mer Soviet Union routinely awarded specific performance). If courts are not permitted to look to these aspects of con- tract law in airline-related actions, they will find the cases difficult to decide. Even the doctrine of unconscionability, which the United States suggests as an aspect of contract law that "might well be preempted" because it "seek[s] to effectuate the State's public policies, rather than the intent of the parties," Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 28, cannot be so neatly categorized. On the one hand, refusing to enforce a contract because it is "unfair" seems quintessentially policy oriented. But on the other, "[p]rocedural unconscionability is broadly conceived to encompass not only the employment of sharp practices and the use of fine print and convoluted language, but a lack of understanding and an inequality of bargaining power." 1 Farnsworth § 4.28, at 506­507 (footnotes omit- ted). In other words, a determination that a contract is "un- conscionable" may in fact be a determination that one party did not intend to agree to the terms of the contract. Thus, the unconscionability doctrine, far from being a purely "policy-oriented" doctrine that courts impose over the will of the parties, instead demonstrates that state public policy cannot easily be separated from the methods by which courts are to decide what the parties "intended." "[T]he law itself imposes contractual liability on the basis of a complex of moral, political, and social judgments." Fried, supra, at 69. The rules laid down by contract law for determining what the parties intended an agreement to 513us1$16J 03-28-98 15:41:56 PAGES OPINPGT 250 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. v. WOLENS Opinion of O'Connor, J. mean, whether that agreement is legally enforceable, and what relief an aggrieved party should receive, are the end result of those judgments. Our legal system has decided to allow private parties to invoke the coercive power of the State in the effort to enforce those (and only those) private agreements that conform to rules set by those state policies known collectively as "contract law." Courts cannot enforce private agreements without reference to those policies, be- cause those policies define the role of courts in deciding dis- putes concerning private agreements. For these reasons, I would reverse the judgment of the Illinois Supreme Court. 513us1$17z 03-28-98 15:44:25 PAGES OPINPGT OCTOBER TERM, 1994 251 Syllabus NATIONSBANK OF NORTH CAROLINA, N. A., et al. v. VARIABLE ANNUITY LIFE INSURANCE CO. et al. certiorari to the united states court of appeals for the fifth circuit No. 93­1612. Argued December 7, 1994-Decided January 18, 1995* Petitioner national bank and its brokerage subsidiary applied to the Comp- troller of the Currency, charged by Congress with superintendence of national banks, to allow the subsidiary to act as an agent in the sale of annuities. Under the proposed plan, bank customers could purchase a "variable annuity"-which invests payments in a designated way and yields income that varies with investment performance-a "fixed" an- nuity-which yields income that does not vary-or a hybrid account. Granting the application, the Comptroller typed the annuity sales "inci- dental" to "the business of banking" under the National Bank Act, 12 U. S. C. § 24 Seventh. The Comptroller further concluded that annu- ities are not "insurance" within the meaning of § 92; that provision, by expressly authorizing banks in towns of no more than 5,000 people to sell insurance, arguably implies that banks in larger towns may not sell insurance. Respondent Variable Annuity Life Insurance Co. (VALIC), which sells annuities, filed a suit challenging the Comptroller's decision. The District Court upheld the Comptroller's conclusions as a permissi- ble reading of the Act. Reversing the District Court's judgment, the Court of Appeals held that § 92 bars banks not located in small towns from selling insurance, and rejected the Comptroller's conclusion that annuities are not insurance under § 92. Held: The Comptroller's determination that national banks may serve as agents in the sale of annuities is a reasonable construction of the Act and therefore warrants judicial deference. Pp. 256­264. (a) If a statute is silent or ambiguous with respect to the precise question at issue, the reviewing court must determine whether the an- swer reached by the agency charged with the statute's enforcement is based on a permissible construction.

(b) The Court respects as reasonable the Comptroller's conclusion that brokerage of annuities is an "incidental powe[r] . . . necessary to carry on the business of banking" under § 24 Seventh. In interpreting "the business of banking" to include brokerage of financial investment instruments, the Comptroller better comprehends the Act's terms than does VALIC, whose reading confines national banks to the five activities listed in § 24 Seventh's first sentence and endeavors incidental thereto: discounting and negotiating evidences of debt; receiving deposits; buy- ing and selling money; making loans; and obtaining, issuing, and circulat- ing notes. The section's second sentence, which limits banks' "dealing in securities," recognizes that banks otherwise have the authority the sentence addresses, even though that authority is not specifically enu- merated; Congress thus evidenced its intent to accord banks authority "to carry on the business of banking" through customer services not circumscribed by the five listed activities. The Comptroller therefore has discretion, within reasonable bounds, to permit banking activities beyond those the statute sets forth as exemplary. Here, the Comptrol- ler reasonably concluded that the authority to sell annuities qualifies as part of the authority to purchase and sell financial investment instru- ments. Modern annuities, though more sophisticated than the standard savings bank deposits of old, answer essentially the same need. By providing customers with the opportunity to invest in one or more annu- ity options, banks are essentially offering financial investment instru- ments of the kind congressional authorization permits them to broker. Pp. 257­260. (c) The Court further defers to the Comptroller's determination that annuities are properly classified as investments, not "insurance" within § 92's meaning. The Comptroller's classification of annuities, based on the tax deferral and investment features that distinguish them from insurance, is at least a reasonable interpretation of the con- trolling legislation. A key feature of insurance is that it indemnifies loss. As the Comptroller observes, annuities serve an important investment purpose and are functionally similar to other investments that banks typically sell. And though fixed annuities more closely resemble insurance than do variable annuities, fixed annuities too have significant investment features and are functionally similar to debt instruments. Moreover, mindful that fixed annuities are often pack- aged with variable annuities, the Comptroller reasonably chose to clas- sify the two together. In light of the foregoing, the Court need not reach the question whether § 92, by negative implication, precludes 513us1$17z 03-28-98 15:44:25 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

C., N. A. v. VARIABLE ANNUITY LIFE INS. CO. Opinion of the Court Justice Ginsburg delivered the opinion of the Court. These consolidated cases present the question whether na- tional banks may serve as agents in the sale of annuities. The Comptroller of the Currency, charged by Congress with superintendence of national banks, determined that federal law permits such annuity sales as a service to bank custom- ers. Specifically, the Comptroller considered the sales at issue "incidental" to "the business of banking" under the Na- tional Bank Act, Rev. Stat. § 5136, as amended, 12 U. S. C. § 24 Seventh (1988 ed. and Supp. V). The Comptroller fur- ther concluded that annuities are not "insurance" within the meaning of § 92; that provision, by expressly authorizing banks in towns of no more than 5,000 people to sell insurance, arguably implies that banks in larger towns may not sell in- surance. The United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas upheld the Comptroller's conclusions as a permissible reading of the National Bank Act, but the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit reversed. We are satisfied that the Comptroller's construction of the Act is reasonable and therefore warrants judicial deference. Ac- cordingly, we reverse the judgment of the Court of Appeals. I Petitioner NationsBank of North Carolina, N. A., a na- tional bank based in Charlotte, and its brokerage subsidiary sought permission from the Comptroller of the Currency, pursuant to 12 CFR § 5.34 (1994), for the brokerage subsid- iary to act as an agent in the sale of annuities. Annuities are contracts under which the purchaser makes one or more premium payments to the issuer in exchange for a series of payments, which continue either for a fixed period or for the life of the purchaser or a designated beneficiary. When a purchaser invests in a "variable" annuity, the purchaser's money is invested in a designated way and payments to the purchaser vary with investment performance. In a classic "fixed" annuity, in contrast, payments do not vary. Under 513us1$17P 03-28-98 15:44:25 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

The issuers would be various insurance companies. See Letter from J. Michael Shepherd, Senior Deputy Comptrol- ler, to Robert M. Kurucza (Mar. 21, 1990), App. to Pet. for Cert. in No. 93­1612, pp. 35a­36a (Comptroller's Letter). The Comptroller granted NationsBank's application. He concluded that national banks have authority to broker annu- ities within "the business of banking" under 12 U. S. C. § 24 Seventh. He further concluded that § 92, addressing insur- ance sales by banks in towns with no more than 5,000 people, did not impede his approval; for purposes of that provision, the Comptroller explained, annuities do not rank as "insur- ance." See Comptroller's Letter 41a­47a. Respondent Variable Annuity Life Insurance Co. (VALIC), which sells annuities, challenged the Comptroller's decision. VALIC filed suit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas seeking declaratory and injunc- tive relief pursuant to the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U. S. C. § 706(2)(A), and 28 U. S. C. §§ 2201, 2202 (1988 ed. and Supp. V). The District Court granted summary judgment in favor of the Comptroller and NationsBank. Variable An- nuity Life Ins. Co. v.

Relying on its decision in Saxon v. Georgia Assn. of Independent Ins. Agents, Inc., 399 F. 2d 1010 (1968), the Fifth Circuit first held that § 92 bars banks not located in small towns from selling insurance, and then rejected the Comptroller's view that annuities are not insurance for pur- poses of § 92. See 998 F. 2d, at 1298­1302. Four judges dissented from the failure of the court to grant rehearing en banc.

II A Authorizing national banks to "carry on the business of banking," the National Bank Act provides that such banks shall have power- "To exercise . . . all such incidental powers as shall be necessary to carry on the business of banking; by dis- counting and negotiating promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange, and other evidences of debt; by receiving deposits; by buying and selling exchange, coin, and bul- lion; by loaning money on personal security; and by ob- taining, issuing, and circulating notes . . . .

S. C. § 24 Seventh (1988 ed. and Supp. V). As the administrator charged with supervision of the Na- tional Bank Act, see §§ 1, 26­27, 481, the Comptroller bears primary responsibility for surveillance of "the business of banking" authorized by § 24 Seventh. We have reiterated: " `It is settled that courts should give great weight to any reasonable construction of a regulatory statute adopted by the agency charged with the enforcement of that statute. The Comptroller of the Currency is charged with the enforcement of banking laws to an ex- tent that warrants the invocation of this principle with 1 The dissenters also observed that 6 of the court's 13 active judges were disqualified from participating in the case. 13 F. 3d, at 834. 513us1$17P 03-28-98 15:44:25 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U.

S. 388, 403­404 (1987) (quoting Investment Com- pany Institute v. Camp, 401 U. S. 617, 626­627 (1971)). Under the formulation now familiar, when we confront an expert administrator's statutory exposition, we inquire first whether "the intent of Congress is clear" as to "the precise question at issue." Chevron U. S. A. Inc. v. Natural Re- sources Defense Council, Inc., 467 U. S. 837, 842 (1984). If so, "that is the end of the matter." Ibid. But "if the stat- ute is silent or ambiguous with respect to the specific issue, the question for the court is whether the agency's answer is based on a permissible construction of the statute." Id., at 843. If the administrator's reading fills a gap or defines a term in a way that is reasonable in light of the legislature's revealed design, we give the administrator's judgment "con- trolling weight." Id., at 844. In authorizing NationsBank to broker annuities, the Comptroller invokes the power of banks to "broker a wide variety of financial investment instruments," Comptroller's Letter 38a, which the Comptroller considers "part of [banks'] traditional role as financial intermediaries," ibid., and there- fore an "incidental powe[r] . . . necessary to carry on the business of banking." 12 U. S. C. § 24 Seventh; see also In- terpretive Letter No. 494 (Dec. 20, 1989) (discussing features of financial investment instruments brokerage that bring this activity within the "business of banking") (cited in Comptrol- ler's Letter 38a). The Comptroller construes the § 24 Sev- enth authorization of "incidental powers . . . necessary to carry on the business of banking" as an independent grant of authority; he reads the specific powers set forth thereafter as exemplary, not exclusive. VALIC argues that the Comptroller's interpretation is contrary to the clear intent of Congress because the banking power on which the Comptroller relies-"broker[ing] finan- cial investment instruments"-is not specified in § 24 Sev- 513us1$17P 03-28-98 15:44:25 PAGES OPINPGT 258 NATIONSBANK OF N. C., N. A. v. VARIABLE ANNUITY LIFE INS. CO. Opinion of the Court enth. Brief for Respondent 35­45. According to VALIC, the five specific activities listed in § 24 Seventh after the words "business of banking" are exclusive-banks are con- fined to these five activities and to endeavors incidental thereto. Id., at 35­36. VALIC thus attributes no inde- pendent significance to the words "business of banking." We think the Comptroller better comprehends the Act's terms. The second sentence of § 24 Seventh, in limiting banks' "dealing in securities," presupposes that banks have author- ity not circumscribed by the five specifically listed activities. Congress' insertion of the limitation decades after the Act's initial adoption makes sense only if banks already had au- thority to deal in securities, authority presumably encom- passed within the "business of banking" language which dates from 1863. VALIC argues, however, that the limi- tation was imposed by the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933, and that the power Glass-Steagall presupposed was specifically granted in the McFadden Act of 1927. Brief for Respondent 46. While the statute's current wording derives from the Glass-Steagall Act, see Act of June 16, 1933, ch. 89, § 16, 48 Stat. 184, the earlier McFadden Act does not bolster VALIC's case, for that Act, too, limited an activity already part of the business national banks did. See Act of Feb. 25, 1927, § 2(b), 44 Stat. 1226 ("Provided, That the business of buying and selling investment securities shall hereinafter be limited to buying and selling without recourse . . . ."); see also Clarke v. Securities Industry Assn., 479 U. S., at 407­ 408 (even before the McFadden Act, banks conducted securi- ties transactions on a widespread basis); 2 F.

S. 251 (1995) 259 Opinion of the Court B As we have just explained, the Comptroller determined, in accord with the legislature's intent, that "the business of banking" described in § 24 Seventh covers brokerage of fi- nancial investment instruments, and is not confined to the examples specifically enumerated. He then reasonably con- cluded that the authority to sell annuities qualifies as part of, or incidental to, the business of banking. National banks, the Comptroller observed, are authorized to serve as agents for their customers in the purchase and sale of various fi- nancial investment instruments, Comptroller's Letter 38a,3 and annuities are widely recognized as just such investment products. See D. Shapiro & T. Streiff, Annuities 7 (1992) (in contrast to life insurance, "[a]nnuities . . . are primarily investment products"); 1 J. Appleman & J. Appleman, Insur- ance Law and Practice § 84, p. 295 (1981) ("Annuity contracts must . . . be recognized as investments rather than as insurance."). By making an initial payment in exchange for a future in- come stream, the customer is deferring consumption, setting aside money for retirement, future expenses, or a rainy day. For her, an annuity is like putting money in a bank account, a debt instrument, or a mutual fund. Offering bank ac- counts and acting as agent in the sale of debt instruments and mutual funds are familiar parts of the business of bank- ing. See, e. g., Securities Industry Assn. v. Board of Gov- ernors, FRS, 468 U. S. 207, 215 (1984) ("Banks long have arranged the purchase and sale of securities as an accommo- dation to their customers."); First Nat. Bank of Hartford v.

Ventures distant from dealing in fi- nancial investment instruments-for example, operating a general travel agency-may exceed those bounds. 3 The Comptroller referred to Interpretive Letter No. 494 (Dec. 20, 1989) (approving brokerage of agricultural, oil, and metals futures). 513us1$17P 03-28-98 15:44:25 PAGES OPINPGT 260 NATIONSBANK OF N.

In sum, modern annuities, though more sophisticated than the standard savings bank deposits of old, answer essentially the same need. By providing customers with the oppor- tunity to invest in one or more annuity options, banks are essentially offering financial investment instruments of the kind congressional authorization permits them to broker. Hence, the Comptroller reasonably typed the permission NationsBank sought as an "incidental powe[r] . . . neces- sary to carry on the business of banking." 4 III A In the alternative, VALIC argues that 12 U. S. C. § 92 (1988 ed., Supp. V) bars NationsBank from selling annuities as agent. That section provides: "In addition to the powers now vested by law in [na- tional banks] any such [bank] located and doing business in any place the population of which does not exceed five thousand inhabitants . . . may . . . act as the agent for any fire, life, or other insurance company authorized by the authorities of the State in which said bank is located to do business in said State, by soliciting and selling insurance and collecting premiums on policies issued by such company . . . ." The parties disagree about whether § 92, by negative im- plication, precludes national banks located in places more populous than 5,000 from selling insurance. We do not reach 4 Assuring that the brokerage in question would not deviate from tradi- tional bank practices, the Comptroller specified that NationsBank "will act only as agent, . . . will not have a principal stake in annuity contracts and therefore will incur no interest rate or actuarial risks."

S. 251 (1995) 261 Opinion of the Court this question because we accept the Comptroller's view that, for the purpose at hand, annuities are properly classified as investments, not "insurance." Again, VALIC contends that the Comptroller's determina- tion is contrary to the plain intent of Congress, or else is unreasonable. In support of its position that annuities are insurance, VALIC notes first that annuities traditionally have been sold by insurance companies. But the sale of a product by an insurance company does not inevitably render the product insurance. For example, insurance companies have long offered loans on the security of life insurance, see 3 Appleman & Appleman, Insurance Law and Practice § 1731, p. 562 (1967), but a loan does not thereby become insurance. VALIC further asserts that most States have regulated annuities as insurance and that Congress intended to define insurance under § 92 by reference to state law. Treatment of annuities under state law, however, is contextual. States generally classify annuities as insurance when defining the powers of insurance companies and state insurance regula- tors. See, e. g., 998 F. 2d, at 1300, n. 2 (citing statutes). But in diverse settings, States have resisted lump classification of annuities as insurance. See, e. g., In re New York State Assn. of Life Underwriters, Inc. v. New York State Banking Dept., 83 N. Y. 2d 353, 363, 632 N. E. 2d 876, 881 (1994) (re- jecting "assertion that annuities are insurance which [state- chartered] banks are not authorized to sell," even though state insurance law "includes `annuities' in its description of `kinds of insurance authorized' "); In re Estate of Rhodes, 197 Misc. 232, 237, 94 N. Y. S. 2d 406, 411 (Surr. Ct. 1949) (annuity contracts do not qualify for New York estate tax exemption applicable to insurance); Commonwealth v. Metropolitan Life Ins. Co., 254 Pa. 510, 513­516, 98 A. 1072, 1073 (1916) (annuities are not insurance for purposes of tax that insur- ance companies pay on insurance premiums received within 513us1$17P 03-28-98 15:44:25 PAGES OPINPGT 262 NATIONSBANK OF N.

As our decisions underscore, a characterization fitting in certain contexts may be unsuitable in others. See, e. g., At- lantic Cleaners & Dyers, Inc. v. United States, 286 U. S. 427, 433 (1932) ("meaning [of words] well may vary to meet the purposes of the law"; courts properly give words "the mean- ing which the legislature intended [they] should have in each instance"); cf. Cook, "Substance" and "Procedure" in the Con- flict of Laws, 42 Yale L. J. 333, 337 (1933) ("The tendency to assume that a word which appears in two or more legal rules, and so in connection with more than one purpose, has and should have precisely the same scope in all of them, runs all through legal discussions. It has all the tenacity of original sin and must constantly be guarded against."). Moreover, the federal banking law does not plainly require automatic reference to state law here. The Comptroller has concluded that the federal regime is best served by classifying annu- ities according to their functional characteristics. Congress has not ruled out that course, see Chevron, 467 U. S., at 842; courts, therefore, have no cause to dictate to the Comptroller the state-law constraint VALIC espouses. VALIC further argues that annuities functionally resem- ble life insurance because some annuities place mortality risk on the parties. Under a classic fixed annuity, the purchaser pays a sum certain and, in exchange, the issuer makes peri- odic payments throughout, but not beyond, the life of the purchaser. In pricing such annuities, issuers rely on actuar- ial assumptions about how long purchasers will live. While cognizant of this similarity between annuities and insurance, the Comptroller points out that mortality risk is a less salient characteristic of contemporary products. Many annuities currently available, both fixed and variable, do not feature a life term. Instead they provide for payments over a term of years; if the purchaser dies before the term ends, 513us1$17P 03-28-98 15:44:25 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 251 (1995) 263 Opinion of the Court the balance is paid to the purchaser's estate. Moreover, the presence of mortality risk does not necessarily qualify an investment as "insurance" under § 92. For example, VALIC recognizes that a life interest in real property is not insur- ance, although it imposes a mortality risk on the purchaser. Tr. of Oral Arg. 42. Some conventional debt instruments similarly impose mortality risk. See Note, Reverse Annuity Mortgages and the Due-on-Sale Clause, 32 Stan. L. Rev. 143, 145­151 (1979). B VALIC also charges the Comptroller with inconsistency. As evidence, VALIC refers to a 1978 letter from a member of the Comptroller's staff describing annuity investments as insurance arrangements. Brief for Respondent 16­17; see Letter from Charles F. Byrd, Assistant Director, Legal Ad- visory Services Division, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (June 16, 1978), App. to Brief in Opposition 1a­2a (Byrd Letter). We note, initially, that the proposal disfa- vored in the 1978 letter did not clearly involve a bank selling annuities as an agent, rather than as a principal. See Byrd Letter 1a ("[T]he bank would purchase a group annuity pol- icy from an insurer and then sell annuity contracts as invest- ments in trust accounts."). Furthermore, unlike the Comp- troller's letter to NationsBank here, the 1978 letter does not purport to represent the Comptroller's position. Compare Byrd Letter 1a ("It is my opinion . . . ") with Comptroller's Letter 35a ("The OCC's legal position on this issue was an- nounced in a [prior 1990 letter]. Since I find neither policy nor supervisory reasons to object to this proposal, the Sub- sidiary may proceed."). Finally, any change in the Comp- troller's position might reduce, but would not eliminate, the deference we owe his reasoned determinations. See Good Samaritan Hospital v. Shalala, 508 U. S. 402, 417 (1993) (quoting NLRB v. Iron Workers, 434 U. S. 335, 351 (1978)). The Comptroller's classification of annuities, based on the tax deferral and investment features that distinguish them 513us1$17P 03-28-98 15:44:25 PAGES OPINPGT 264 NATIONSBANK OF N. C., N. A. v. VARIABLE ANNUITY LIFE INS. CO. Opinion of the Court from insurance, in short, is at least reasonable. See Comp- troller's Letter 44a. A key feature of insurance is that it indemnifies loss. See Black's Law Dictionary 802 (6th ed. 1990) (first definition of insurance is "contract whereby, for a stipulated consideration, one party undertakes to compen- sate the other for loss on a specified subject by specified per- ils"). As the Comptroller observes, annuities serve an im- portant investment purpose and are functionally similar to other investments that banks typically sell. See supra, at 259­260. And though fixed annuities more closely resemble insurance than do variable annuities, fixed annuities too have significant investment features and are functionally similar to debt instruments. Moreover, mindful that fixed annuities are often packaged with variable annuities, the Comptroller reasonably chose to classify the two together. * * * We respect as reasonable the Comptroller's conclusion that brokerage of annuities is an "incidental powe[r] . . . necessary to carry on the business of banking." We further defer to the Comptroller's reasonable determination that 12 U. S. C. § 92 is not implicated because annuities are not insurance within the meaning of that section. Accordingly, the judg- ment of the Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit is Reversed. 513us1$18z 03-28-98 15:48:53 PAGES OPINPGT OCTOBER TERM, 1994 265 Syllabus ALLIED-BRUCE TERMINIX COS., INC., et al. v. DOBSON et al. certiorari to the supreme court of alabama No. 93­1001. Argued October 4, 1994-Decided January 18, 1995 The termite prevention contract between petitioner exterminators and re- spondent Gwin, a homeowner, specified that any controversy thereunder would be settled exclusively by arbitration. After respondents Dobson, who had purchased Gwin's home, sued in state court following a termite infestation, petitioners asked for, but were denied, a stay to allow for arbitration under the contract and § 2 of the Federal Arbitration Act, which makes enforceable a written arbitration provision in "a contract evidencing a transaction involving commerce." The Alabama Supreme Court affirmed on the basis of a state statute invalidating predispute arbitration agreements, ruling that the federal Act applies only if, at the time the parties entered into the contract and accepted the arbitra- tion clause, they "contemplated" substantial interstate activity. De- spite some such activities, the court found that these parties "contem- plated" a transaction that was primarily local and not "substantially" interstate. Held: Section 2's interstate commerce language should be read broadly to extend the Act's reach to the limits of Congress' Commerce Clause power. The use of the words "evidencing" and "involving" does not restrict the Act's application and thereby allow a State to apply its anti- arbitration law or policy. Pp. 270­282. (a) The legal background demonstrates that the Act has the basic pur- pose of overcoming judicial hostility to arbitration agreements and ap- plies in both federal diversity cases and state courts, where it pre-empts state statutes invalidating such agreements. See, e. g., Southland Corp. v. Keating, 465 U. S. 1, 15­16. It would be inappropriate to over- rule Southland and permit Alabama to apply its antiarbitration statute, since the Court in that case considered the basic arguments now raised, and nothing significant changed subsequently; since, in the interim, pri- vate parties have likely written contracts relying on Southland; and since Congress, both before and after Southland, has enacted legislation extending, not retracting, the scope of arbitration. Pp. 270­273. (b) The statute's language, background, and structure establish that § 2's "involving commerce" words are the functional equivalent of the phrase "affecting commerce," which normally signals Congress' intent to exercise its commerce power to the full, see Russell v. United States, 513us1$18z 03-28-98 15:48:53 PAGES OPINPGT 266 ALLIED-BRUCE TERMINIX COS. v. DOBSON Syllabus 471 U. S. 858, 859. The linguistic permissibility of this interpretation is demonstrated by dictionary definitions in which "involve" and "affect" mean the same thing. Moreover, the Act's legislative history, to the extent that it is informative, indicates an expansive congressional intent, and this Court has described the Act's reach expansively as coinciding with that of the Commerce Clause, see, e. g., Southland, supra, at 14­15. Finally, a broad interpretation of this language is consistent with the Act's basic purpose, while a narrower interpretation would create a new, unfamiliar test that would unnecessarily complicate the law and breed litigation. For these reasons, the Act's scope can be said to have ex- panded along with the commerce power over the years, even though the Congress that passed the Act in 1925 might well have thought the Commerce Clause did not stretch as far as has turned out to be so.

S. 198, 200­202, distinguished. Pp. 273­277. (c) Section 2's "evidencing a transaction" phrase means that the "transaction" (that the contract "evidences") must turn out, in fact, to have involved interstate commerce. For several reasons, this "com- merce in fact" interpretation is more faithful to the statute than the "contemplation of the parties" test adopted below and in other courts. First, the latter interpretation, when viewed in terms of the statute's basic purpose, seems anomalous because it invites litigation about what was, or was not, "contemplated," because it too often would turn the validity of an arbitration clause upon the happenstance of whether the parties thought to insert a reference to interstate commerce in their document or to mention it in an initial conversation, and because it fits awkwardly with the rest of § 2. Second, the statute's language permits the "commerce in fact" interpretation. Although that interpretation concededly leaves little work for the word "evidencing," nothing in the Act's history suggests any other, more limiting, task for the language. Third, the force of the basic practical argument underlying the "contem- plation of the parties" test, i. e., that encroaching on powers reserved to the States must be avoided, has diminished following this Court's hold- ings that the Act displaces contrary state law. Finally, despite an ami- cus' claim, it is unclear whether an "objective" version of that test would better protect consumers asked to sign form contracts by businesses. In any event, § 2 authorizes States to invalidate an arbitration clause "upon such grounds as exist at law or in equity for the revocation of any contract," and thereby gives them a method for protecting consumers against unwanted arbitration provisions.

This case concerns the reach of § 2 of the Federal Arbitra- tion Act. That section makes enforceable a written arbitra- tion provision in "a contract evidencing a transaction involv- ing commerce." 9 U. S. C. § 2 (emphasis added). Should we read this phrase broadly, extending the Act's reach to the limits of Congress' Commerce Clause power? Or, do the two italicized words-"involving" and "evidencing"-sig- nificantly restrict the Act's application? We conclude that the broader reading of the Act is the correct one, and we reverse a State Supreme Court judgment to the contrary. I In August 1987, Steven Gwin, a respondent who owned a house in Birmingham, Alabama, bought a lifetime "Termite Protection Plan" (Plan) from the local office of Allied-Bruce Terminix Companies, a franchise of Terminix International Company. In the Plan, Allied-Bruce promised "to protect" Gwin's house "against the attack of subterranean termites," to reinspect periodically, to provide any "further treatment found necessary," and to repair, up to $100,000, damage caused by new termite infestations. App. 69. Terminix International "guarantee[d] the fulfillment of the terms" of the Plan. Ibid. The Plan's contract document provided in writing that "any controversy or claim . . . arising out of or relating to the interpretation, performance or breach of any pro- vision of this agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration." Id., at 70 (emphasis added). In the spring of 1991, Mr. and Mrs. Gwin, wishing to sell their house to Mr. and Mrs. Dobson, had Allied-Bruce rein- spect the house. They obtained a clean bill of health. But no sooner had they sold the house and transferred the Plan to Mr. and Mrs. Dobson than the Dobsons found the house swarming with termites. Allied-Bruce attempted to treat 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:53 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 265 (1995) 269 Opinion of the Court and repair the house, but the Dobsons found Allied-Bruce's efforts inadequate. They therefore sued the Gwins, and (along with the Gwins, who cross-claimed) also sued Allied- Bruce and Terminix in Alabama state court. Allied-Bruce and Terminix, pointing to the Plan's arbitration clause and § 2 of the Federal Arbitration Act, immediately asked the court for a stay, to allow arbitration to proceed. The court denied the stay. Allied-Bruce and Terminix appealed. The Supreme Court of Alabama upheld the denial of the stay on the basis of a state statute, Ala. Code § 8­1­41(3) (1993), making written, predispute arbitration agreements invalid and "unenforceable." 628 So. 2d 354, 355 (1993). To reach this conclusion, the court had to find that the Federal Arbitration Act, which pre-empts conflicting state law, did not apply to the termite contract. It made just that finding. The court considered the federal Act inapplicable because the connection between the termite contract and interstate commerce was too slight. In the court's view, the Act ap- plies to a contract only if " `at the time [the parties entered into the contract] and accepted the arbitration clause, they contemplated substantial interstate activity.' " Ibid. (em- phasis in original) (quoting Metro Industrial Painting Corp. v. Terminal Constr. Co., 287 F. 2d 382, 387 (CA2) (Lumbard, C. J., concurring), cert. denied, 368 U. S. 817 (1961)). De- spite some interstate activities (e. g., Allied-Bruce, like Ter- minix, is a multistate firm and shipped treatment and repair material from out of state), the court found that the parties "contemplated" a transaction that was primarily local and not "substantially" interstate. Several state courts and Federal District Courts, like the Supreme Court of Alabama, have interpreted the Act's lan- guage as requiring the parties to a contract to have "contem- plated" an interstate commerce connection. See, e. g., Burke County Public Schools Bd. of Ed. v. Shaver Partnership, 303 N. C. 408, 417­420, 279 S. E. 2d 816, 822­823 (1981); R. J. Palmer Constr. Co. v. Wichita Band Instrument Co., 7 Kan. 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:53 PAGES OPINPGT 270 ALLIED-BRUCE TERMINIX COS. v. DOBSON Opinion of the Court App. 2d 363, 367, 642 P. 2d 127, 130 (1982); Lacheney v. Profitkey Int'l, Inc., 818 F. Supp. 922, 924 (ED Va. 1993). Several federal appellate courts, however, have interpreted the same language differently, as reaching to the limits of Congress' Commerce Clause power. See, e. g., Foster v. Turley, 808 F. 2d 38, 40 (CA10 1986); Robert Lawrence Co. v. Devonshire Fabrics, Inc., 271 F. 2d 402, 406­407 (CA2 1959), cert. dism'd, 364 U. S. 801 (1960); cf. Snyder v. Smith, 736 F. 2d 409, 417­418 (CA7), cert. denied, 469 U. S. 1037 (1984). We granted certiorari to resolve this conflict, 510 U. S. 1190 (1994); and, as we said, we conclude that the broader reading of the statute is the right one. II Before we can reach the main issues in this case, we must set forth three items of legal background. First, the basic purpose of the Federal Arbitration Act is to overcome courts' refusals to enforce agreements to arbi- trate. See Volt Information Sciences, Inc. v. Board of Trustees of Leland Stanford Junior Univ., 489 U. S. 468, 474 (1989). The origins of those refusals apparently lie in " `an- cient times,' " when the English courts fought " `for extension of jurisdiction-all of them being opposed to anything that would altogether deprive every one of them of jurisdiction.' " Bernhardt v. Polygraphic Co. of America, Inc., 350 U. S. 198, 211, n. 5 (1956) (Frankfurter, J., concurring) (quoting United States Asphalt Refining Co. v. Trinidad Lake Petroleum Co., 222 F. 1006, 1007 (SDNY 1915), in turn quoting Scott v. Avery, 5 H. L. Cas. 811 (1856) (Campbell, L. J.)). American courts initially followed English practice, perhaps just " `stand[ing] . . . upon the antiquity of the rule' " prohibiting arbitration clause enforcement, rather than " `upon its excel- lence or reason.' " Bernhardt v. Polygraphic Co., supra, at 211, n. 5 (quoting United States Asphalt Refining Co., supra, at 1007). Regardless, when Congress passed the Arbitra- tion Act in 1925, it was "motivated, first and foremost, by a 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:53 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 265 (1995) 271 Opinion of the Court . . . desire" to change this antiarbitration rule. Dean Witter Reynolds Inc. v. Byrd, 470 U. S. 213, 220 (1985). It intended courts to "enforce [arbitration] agreements into which par- ties had entered," ibid. (footnote omitted), and to "place such agreements `upon the same footing as other contracts,' " Volt Information Sciences, Inc., supra, at 474 (quoting Scherk v. Alberto-Culver Co., 417 U. S. 506, 511 (1974)). Second, some initially assumed that the Federal Arbitra- tion Act represented an exercise of Congress' Article III power to "ordain and establish" federal courts, U. S. Const., Art. III, § 1. See Southland Corp. v. Keating, 465 U. S. 1, 28, n. 16 (1984) (O'Connor, J., dissenting) (collecting cases). In 1967, however, this Court held that the Act "is based upon and confined to the incontestable federal foundations of `con- trol over interstate commerce and over admiralty.' " Prima Paint Corp. v. Flood & Conklin Mfg. Co., 388 U. S. 395, 405 (1967) (quoting H. R. Rep. No. 96, 68th Cong., 1st Sess., 1 (1924)). The Court considered the following complicated ar- gument: (1) The Act's provisions (about contract remedies) are important and often outcome determinative, and thus amount to "substantive," not "procedural," provisions of law; (2) Erie R. Co. v. Tompkins, 304 U. S. 64, 71­80 (1938), made clear that federal courts must apply state substantive law in diversity cases, see also Hanna v. Plumer, 380 U. S. 460, 465 (1965); therefore (3) federal courts must not apply the Fed- eral Arbitration Act in diversity cases. This Court re- sponded by agreeing that the Act set forth substantive law, but concluding that, nonetheless, the Act applied in diversity cases because Congress had so intended. The Court wrote: "Congress may prescribe how federal courts are to conduct themselves with respect to subject matter over which Con- gress plainly has power to legislate." Prima Paint, supra, at 405. Third, the holding in Prima Paint led to a further ques- tion. Did Congress intend the Act also to apply in state courts? Did the Federal Arbitration Act pre-empt conflict- 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:53 PAGES OPINPGT 272 ALLIED-BRUCE TERMINIX COS. v. DOBSON Opinion of the Court ing state antiarbitration law, or could state courts apply their antiarbitration rules in cases before them, thereby reaching results different from those reached in otherwise similar fed- eral diversity cases? In Southland Corp. v. Keating, supra, this Court decided that Congress would not have wanted state and federal courts to reach different outcomes about the validity of arbitration in similar cases. The Court con- cluded that the Federal Arbitration Act pre-empts state law; and it held that state courts cannot apply state statutes that invalidate arbitration agreements. Id., at 15­16. We have set forth this background because respondents, supported by 20 state attorneys general, now ask us to over- rule Southland and thereby to permit Alabama to apply its antiarbitration statute in this case irrespective of the proper interpretation of § 2. The Southland Court, however, rec- ognized that the pre-emption issue was a difficult one, and it considered the basic arguments that respondents and amici now raise (even though those issues were not thoroughly briefed at the time). Nothing significant has changed in the 10 years subsequent to Southland; no later cases have eroded Southland's authority; and no unforeseen practical problems have arisen. Moreover, in the interim, private parties have likely written contracts relying upon Southland as authority. Further, Congress, both before and after Southland, has enacted legislation extending, not retracting, the scope of arbitration. See, e. g., 9 U. S. C. § 15 (eliminat- ing the Act of State doctrine as a bar to arbitration); 9 U. S. C. §§ 201­208 (international arbitration). For these reasons, we find it inappropriate to reconsider what is by now well-established law. We therefore proceed to the basic interpretive questions aware that we are interpreting an Act that seeks broadly to overcome judicial hostility to arbitration agreements and that applies in both federal and state courts. We must de- cide in this case whether that Act used language about inter- state commerce that nonetheless limits the Act's application, 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 265 (1995) 273 Opinion of the Court thereby carving out an important statutory niche in which a State remains free to apply its antiarbitration law or policy. We conclude that it does not. III The Federal Arbitration Act, § 2, provides that a "written provision in any maritime transaction or a con- tract evidencing a transaction involving commerce to settle by arbitration a controversy thereafter arising out of such contract or transaction . . . shall be valid, irrevo- cable, and enforceable, save upon such grounds as exist at law or in equity for the revocation of any contract." 9 U. S. C. § 2 (emphasis added). The initial interpretive question focuses upon the words "involving commerce." These words are broader than the often-found words of art "in commerce." They therefore cover more than " `only persons or activities within the flow of interstate commerce.' " United States v. American Building Maintenance Industries, 422 U. S. 271, 276 (1975) (quoting Gulf Oil Corp. v. Copp Paving Co., 419 U. S. 186, 195 (1974)) (defining "in commerce" as related to the "flow" and defining the "flow" to include "the generation of goods and services for interstate markets and their transport and distribution to the consumer"); see also FTC v. Bunte Broth- ers, Inc., 312 U. S. 349, 351 (1941). But how far beyond the flow of commerce does the word "involving" reach? Is "in- volving" the functional equivalent of the word "affecting"? That phrase-"affecting commerce"-normally signals Con- gress' intent to exercise its Commerce Clause powers to the full. See Russell v. United States, 471 U. S. 858, 859 (1985). We cannot look to other statutes for guidance for the parties tell us that this is the only federal statute that uses the word "involving" to describe an interstate commerce relation. After examining the statute's language, background, and structure, we conclude that the word "involving" is broad 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT 274 ALLIED-BRUCE TERMINIX COS. v. DOBSON Opinion of the Court and is indeed the functional equivalent of "affecting." For one thing, such an interpretation, linguistically speaking, is permissible. The dictionary finds instances in which "in- volve" and "affect" sometimes can mean about the same thing. V Oxford English Dictionary 466 (1st ed. 1933) (pro- viding examples dating back to the mid-19th century, where "involve" means to "include or affect in . . . operation"). For another, the Act's legislative history, to the extent that it is informative, indicates an expansive congressional intent. See, e. g., H. R. Rep. No. 96, supra, at 1 (the Act's "control over interstate commerce reaches not only the actual physi- cal interstate shipment of goods but also contracts relating to interstate commerce"); 65 Cong. Rec. 1931 (1924) (the Act "affects contracts relating to interstate subjects and con- tracts in admiralty") (remarks of Rep. Graham); Joint Hear- ings on S. 1005 and H. R. 646 before the Subcommittees of the Committees on the Judiciary, 68th Cong., 1st Sess., 7 (1924) (hereinafter Joint Hearings) (testimony of Charles L. Bernheimer, chairman of the Committee on Arbitration of the Chamber of Commerce of the State of New York, agree- ing that the proposed bill "relates to contracts arising in in- terstate commerce"); id., at 16 (testimony of Julius H. Cohen, drafter for the American Bar Association of much of the pro- posed bill's language, that the Act reflects part of a strategy to rid the law of an "anachronism" by "get[ting] a Federal law to cover interstate and foreign commerce and admi- ralty"); see also 9 U. S. C. § 1 (defining the word "commerce" in the language of the Commerce Clause itself). Further, this Court has previously described the Act's reach expansively as coinciding with that of the Commerce Clause. See, e. g., Perry v. Thomas, 482 U. S. 483, 490 (1987) (the Act "embodies Congress' intent to provide for the en- forcement of arbitration agreements within the full reach of the Commerce Clause"); Southland Corp. v. Keating, 465 U. S., at 14­15 (the " `involving commerce' " requirement is a constitutionally "necessary qualification" on the Act's reach, 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 265 (1995) 275 Opinion of the Court marking its permissible outer limit); see also Prima Paint Corp. v. Flood & Conklin Mfg. Co., 388 U. S., at 407 (Harlan, J., concurring) (endorsing Robert Lawrence Co. v. Devonshire Fabrics, Inc., 271 F. 2d 402, 407 (CA2 1959) (Congress, in enacting the FAA, "took pains to utilize as much of its power as it could")). Finally, a broad interpretation of this language is consist- ent with the Act's basic purpose, to put arbitration provisions on " `the same footing' " as a contract's other terms. Scherk v. Alberto-Culver Co., 417 U. S., at 511. Conversely, a nar- rower interpretation is not consistent with the Act's purpose, for (unless unreasonably narrowed to the flow of commerce) such an interpretation would create a new, unfamiliar test lying somewhere in a no man's land between "in commerce" and "affecting commerce," thereby unnecessarily complicat- ing the law and breeding litigation from a statute that seeks to avoid it. We recognize arguments to the contrary: The pre-New Deal Congress that passed the Act in 1925 might well have thought the Commerce Clause did not stretch as far as has turned out to be the case. But, it is not unusual for this Court in similar circumstances to ask whether the scope of a statute should expand along with the expansion of the Commerce Clause power itself, and to answer the question affirmatively-as, for the reasons set forth above, we do here. See, e. g., McLain v. Real Estate Bd. of New Orleans, Inc., 444 U. S. 232, 241 (1980); Hospital Building Co. v. Trustees of Rex Hospital, 425 U. S. 738, 743, n. 2 (1976). Further, the Gwins and Dobsons point to two cases con- taining what they believe to be favorable language. In Mine Workers v. Coronado Coal Co., 259 U. S. 344 (1922), and then again in Leather Workers v. Herkert & Meisel Trunk Co., 265 U. S. 457 (1924), they say, this Court said that one might draw a distinction between, on the one hand, cases that "involve interstate commerce intrinsically," and, on the other hand, cases "affecting interstate commerce so directly 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT 276 ALLIED-BRUCE TERMINIX COS. v. DOBSON Opinion of the Court as to be within the federal regulatory power." Mine Work- ers, supra, at 410 (emphasis added); Leather Workers, supra, at 470 (same). One could read these cases as driving a wedge between "involve" and "affecting." Yet, in these cases, the Court was not construing a statute containing the words "involving commerce." Furthermore, nothing suggests the drafters of the Act looked to these cases as a source. And, these cases themselves use the phrase "involve . . . intrinsically," not the word "involving" alone. In sum, these cases do not support respondents' position. The Gwins and Dobsons, with far better reason, point to a different case, Bernhardt v. Polygraphic Co. of America, Inc., 350 U. S. 198 (1956). In that case, Bernhardt, a New York resident, had entered into an employment contract (con- taining an arbitration clause) in New York with Polygraphic, a New York corporation. But, Bernhardt "was to perform" that contract after he "later became a resident of Vermont." Id., at 199. This Court was faced with the question whether, in light of Erie, a federal court should apply the Federal Arbitration Act in a diversity case when faced with state law hostile to arbitration. 350 U. S., at 200. The Court did not reach that question, however, for it decided that the contract itself did not "involv[e]" interstate com- merce and therefore fell outside the Act. Id., at 200­202. Since Congress, constitutionally speaking, could have ap- plied the Act to Bernhardt's contract, say the parties, how then can we say that the Act's word "involving" reaches as far as the Commerce Clause itself? The best response to this argument is to point to the way in which the Court reasoned in Bernhardt, and to what the Court said. It said that the reason the Act did not apply to Bernhardt's contract was that there was "no showing that petitioner while performing his duties under the employment contract was working `in' com- merce, was producing goods for commerce, or was en- gaging in activity that affected commerce, within the 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 265 (1995) 277 Opinion of the Court meaning of our decisions." Id., at 200­201 (emphasis added) (footnote omitted). Thus, the Court interpreted the words "involving com- merce" as broadly as the words "affecting commerce"; and, as we have said, these latter words normally mean a full exercise of constitutional power. At the same time, the Court's opinion does not discuss the implications of the "in- terstate" facts to which the respondents now point. For these reasons, Bernhardt does not require us to narrow the scope of the word "involving." And, we conclude that the word "involving," like "affecting," signals an intent to exer- cise Congress' commerce power to the full. IV Section 2 applies where there is "a contract evidencing a transaction involving commerce." 9 U. S. C. § 2 (emphasis added). The second interpretive question focuses on the italicized words. Does "evidencing a transaction" mean only that the transaction (that the contract "evidences") must turn out, in fact, to have involved interstate commerce? Or, does it mean more? Many years ago, Second Circuit Chief Judge Lumbard said that the phrase meant considerably more. He wrote: "The significant question . . . is not whether, in carrying out the terms of the contract, the parties did cross state lines, but whether, at the time they entered into it and accepted the arbitration clause, they contemplated sub- stantial interstate activity. Cogent evidence regarding their state of mind at the time would be the terms of the contract, and if it, on its face, evidences interstate traffic . . . , the contract should come within § 2. In addition, evidence as to how the parties expected the contract to be performed and how it was performed is relevant to whether substantial interstate activity was contemplated." Metro Industrial Painting Corp. 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT 278 ALLIED-BRUCE TERMINIX COS. v. DOBSON Opinion of the Court v. Terminal Constr. Co., 287 F. 2d 382, 387 (1961) (con- curring opinion) (second emphasis added). The Supreme Court of Alabama and several other courts have followed this view, known as the "contemplation of the parties" test. See supra, at 269­270. We find the interpretive choice difficult, but for several reasons we conclude that the first interpretation ("commerce in fact") is more faithful to the statute than the second ("con- templation of the parties"). First, the "contemplation of the parties" interpretation, when viewed in terms of the stat- ute's basic purpose, seems anomalous. That interpretation invites litigation about what was, or was not, "contem- plated." Why would Congress intend a test that risks the very kind of costs and delay through litigation (about the circumstances of contract formation) that Congress wrote the Act to help the parties avoid? See Moses H. Cone Me- morial Hospital v. Mercury Constr. Corp., 460 U. S. 1, 29 (1983) (the Act "calls for a summary and speedy disposition of motions or petitions to enforce arbitration clauses"). Moreover, that interpretation too often would turn the va- lidity of an arbitration clause on what, from the perspective of the statute's basic purpose, seems happenstance, namely, whether the parties happened to think to insert a reference to interstate commerce in the document or happened to men- tion it in an initial conversation. After all, parties to a sales contract with an arbitration clause might naturally think about the goods sold, or about arbitration, but why should they naturally think about an interstate commerce connection? Further, that interpretation fits awkwardly with the rest of § 2. That section, for example, permits parties to agree to submit to arbitration "an existing controversy arising out of" a contract made earlier. Why would Congress want to risk nonenforceability of this later arbitration agreement (even if fully connected with interstate commerce) simply be- cause the parties did not properly "contemplate" (or write 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 265 (1995) 279 Opinion of the Court about) the interstate aspects of the earlier contract? The first interpretation, requiring only that the "transaction" in fact involve interstate commerce, avoids this anomaly, as it avoids the other anomalous effects growing out of the "con- templation of the parties" test. Second, the statute's language permits the "commerce in fact" interpretation. That interpretation, we concede, leaves little work for the word "evidencing" (in the phrase "a contract evidencing a transaction") to perform, for every contract evidences some transaction. But, perhaps Con- gress did not want that word to perform much work. The Act's history, to the extent informative, indicates that the Act's supporters saw the Act as part of an effort to make arbitration agreements universally enforceable. They wanted to "get a Federal law" that would "cover" areas where the Constitution authorized Congress to legislate, namely, "interstate and foreign commerce and admiralty."

They urged Congress to model the Act after a New York statute that made enforceable a written arbitration provision "in a written contract," Act of Apr. 19, 1920, ch. 275, § 2, 1920 N. Y. Laws 803, 804. Hearing on S. 4213 and S. 4214 before the Subcommittee of the Senate Committee on the Judiciary, 67th Cong., 4th Sess., 2 (1923) (testimony of Charles L. Bern- heimer). Early drafts made enforceable a written arbitra- tion provision "in any contract or maritime transaction or transaction involving commerce." S. 4214, 67th Cong., 4th Sess., § 2 (1922) (emphasis added); S. 1005, 68th Cong., 1st Sess. (1923); H. R. 646, 68th Cong., 1st Sess. (1924). Mem- bers of Congress, looking at that phrase, might have thought the words "any contract" standing alone went beyond Con- gress' constitutional authority. And, if so, they might have simply connected those words with the later words "transac- tion involving commerce," thereby creating the phrase that became law. Nothing in the Act's history suggests any other, more limiting, task for the language. 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT 280 ALLIED-BRUCE TERMINIX COS. v. DOBSON Opinion of the Court Third, the basic practical argument underlying the "con- templation of the parties" test was, in Chief Judge Lum- bard's words, the need to "be cautious in construing the act lest we excessively encroach on the powers which Congres- sional policy, if not the Constitution, would reserve to the states." Metro Industrial Painting Corp., supra, at 386 (concurring opinion). The practical force of this argument has diminished in light of this Court's later holdings that the Act does displace state law to the contrary. See Southland Corp. v. Keating, 465 U. S., at 10­16; Perry v. Thomas, 482 U. S., at 489­492. Finally, we note that an amicus curiae argues for an "ob- jective" ("reasonable person" oriented) version of the "con- templation of the parties" test on the ground that such an interpretation would better protect consumers asked to sign form contracts by businesses. We agree that Congress, when enacting this law, had the needs of consumers, as well as others, in mind. See S. Rep. No. 536, 68th Cong., 1st Sess., 3 (1924) (the Act, by avoiding "the delay and expense of litigation," will appeal "to big business and little business alike, . . . corporate interests [and] . . . individuals"). Indeed, arbitration's advantages often would seem helpful to individ- uals, say, complaining about a product, who need a less ex- pensive alternative to litigation. See, e. g., H. R. Rep. No. 97­542, p. 13 (1982) ("The advantages of arbitration are many: it is usually cheaper and faster than litigation; it can have simpler procedural and evidentiary rules; it normally minimizes hostility and is less disruptive of ongoing and fu- ture business dealings among the parties; it is often more flexible in regard to scheduling of times and places of hear- ings and discovery devices . . ."). And, according to the American Arbitration Association (also an amicus here), more than one-third of its claims involve amounts below $10,000, while another third involve claims of $10,000 to $50,000 (with an average processing time of less than six 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 265 (1995) 281 Opinion of the Court months). App. to Brief for American Arbitration Associa- tion as Amicus Curiae 26­27. We are uncertain, however, just how the "objective" version of the "contemplation" test would help consumers. Sometimes, of course, it would permit, say, a consumer with potentially large damages claims to disavow a contract's arbi- tration provision and proceed in court. But, if so, it would equally permit, say, local business entities to disavow a con- tract's arbitration provisions, thereby leaving the typical consumer who has only a small damages claim (who seeks, say, the value of only a defective refrigerator or television set) without any remedy but a court remedy, the costs and delays of which could eat up the value of an eventual small recovery. In any event, § 2 gives States a method for protecting con- sumers against unfair pressure to agree to a contract with an unwanted arbitration provision. States may regulate contracts, including arbitration clauses, under general con- tract law principles and they may invalidate an arbitration clause "upon such grounds as exist at law or in equity for the revocation of any contract." 9 U. S. C. § 2 (emphasis added). What States may not do is decide that a contract is fair enough to enforce all its basic terms (price, service, credit), but not fair enough to enforce its arbitration clause. The Act makes any such state policy unlawful, for that kind of policy would place arbitration clauses on an unequal "foot- ing," directly contrary to the Act's language and Congress' intent. See Volt Information Sciences, Inc., 489 U. S., at 474. For these reasons, we accept the "commerce in fact" inter- pretation, reading the Act's language as insisting that the "transaction" in fact "involv[e]" interstate commerce, even if the parties did not contemplate an interstate commerce connection. 513us1$18Q 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT 282 ALLIED-BRUCE TERMINIX COS. v. DOBSON O'Connor, J., concurring V The parties do not contest that the transaction in this case, in fact, involved interstate commerce. In addition to the multistate nature of Terminix and Allied-Bruce, the termite-treating and house-repairing material used by Allied-Bruce in its (allegedly inadequate) efforts to carry out the terms of the Plan, came from outside Alabama. Consequently, the judgment of the Supreme Court of Alabama is reversed, and the case is remanded for further proceedings not inconsistent with this opinion. It is so ordered. Justice O'Connor, concurring. I agree with the Court's construction of § 2 of the Federal Arbitration Act. As applied in federal courts, the Court's interpretation comports fully with my understanding of con- gressional intent. A more restrictive definition of "evidenc- ing" and "involving" would doubtless foster prearbitration litigation that would frustrate the very purpose of the stat- ute. As applied in state courts, however, the effect of a broad formulation of § 2 is more troublesome. The reading of § 2 adopted today will displace many state statutes care- fully calibrated to protect consumers, see, e. g., Mont. Code Ann. § 27­5­114(2)(b) (1993) (refusing to enforce arbitration clauses in consumer contracts where the consideration is $5,000 or less), and state procedural requirements aimed at ensuring knowing and voluntary consent, see, e. g., S. C. Code Ann. § 15­48­10(a) (Supp. 1993) (requiring that notice of arbitration provision be prominently placed on first page of contract). I have long adhered to the view, discussed below, that Congress designed the Federal Arbitration Act to apply only in federal courts. But if we are to apply the Act in state courts, it makes little sense to read § 2 differ- ently in that context. In the end, my agreement with the Court's construction of § 2 rests largely on the wisdom of maintaining a uniform standard. 513us1$18J 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 265 (1995) 283 O'Connor, J., concurring I continue to believe that Congress never intended the Federal Arbitration Act to apply in state courts, and that this Court has strayed far afield in giving the Act so broad a compass. See Southland Corp. v. Keating, 465 U. S. 1, 21­36 (1984) (O'Connor, J., dissenting); see also Perry v. Thomas, 482 U. S. 483, 494­495 (1987) (O'Connor, J., dissenting); York International v. Alabama Oxygen Co., 465 U. S. 1016 (1984) (O'Connor, J., dissenting from remand). We have often said that the pre-emptive effect of a federal statute is fun- damentally a question of congressional intent. See, e. g., Cipollone v. Liggett Group, Inc., 505 U. S. 504, 516 (1992); English v. General Elec. Co., 496 U. S. 72, 78­79 (1990); Schneidewind v. ANR Pipeline Co., 485 U. S. 293, 299 (1988); Rice v. Santa Fe Elevator Corp., 331 U. S. 218, 230 (1947). Indeed, we have held that " `[w]here . . . the field which Con- gress is said to have pre-empted' includes areas that have `been traditionally occupied by the States,' congressional in- tent to supersede state laws must be `clear and manifest.' " English, supra, at 79, quoting Jones v. Rath Packing Co., 430 U. S. 519, 525 (1977). Yet, over the past decade, the Court has abandoned all pretense of ascertaining congressional intent with respect to the Federal Arbitration Act, build- ing instead, case by case, an edifice of its own creation. See Perry v. Thomas, supra, at 493 (Stevens, J., dissenting) ("It is only in the last few years that the Court has effectively rewritten the statute to give it a pre-emptive scope that Congress certainly did not intend"). I have no doubt that Congress could enact, in the first instance, a federal arbitra- tion statute that displaces most state arbitration laws. But I also have no doubt that, in 1925, Congress enacted no such statute. Were we writing on a clean slate, I would adhere to that view and affirm the Alabama court's decision. But, as the Court points out, more than 10 years have passed since Southland, several subsequent cases have built upon its rea- soning, and parties have undoubtedly made contracts in reli- 513us1$18J 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT 284 ALLIED-BRUCE TERMINIX COS. v. DOBSON Scalia, J., dissenting ance on the Court's interpretation of the Act in the interim. After reflection, I am persuaded by considerations of stare decisis, which we have said "have special force in the area of statutory interpretation," Patterson v. McLean Credit Union, 491 U. S. 164, 172­173 (1989), to acquiesce in today's judgment. Though wrong, Southland has not proved un- workable, and, as always, "Congress remains free to alter what we have done." Ibid. Today's decision caps this Court's effort to expand the Fed- eral Arbitration Act. Although each decision has built logi- cally upon the decisions preceding it, the initial building block in Southland laid a faulty foundation. I acquiesce in today's judgment because there is no "special justification" to overrule Southland. Arizona v. Rumsey, 467 U. S. 203, 212 (1984). It remains now for Congress to correct this interpretation if it wishes to preserve state autonomy in state courts. Justice Scalia, dissenting. I have previously joined two judgments of this Court that rested upon the holding of Southland Corp. v. Keating, 465 U. S. 1 (1984). See Volt Information Sciences, Inc. v. Board of Trustees of Leland Stanford Junior Univ., 489 U. S. 468 (1989); Perry v. Thomas, 482 U. S. 483 (1987). In neither of those cases, however, did any party ask that Southland be overruled, and it was therefore not necessary to consider the question. In the present case, by contrast, one of respond- ents' central arguments is that Southland was wrongly de- cided, and their request for its overruling has been sup- ported by an amicus brief signed by the attorneys general of 20 States. For the reasons set forth in Justice Thomas' opinion, which I join, I agree with the respondents (and belatedly with Justice O'Connor) that Southland clearly misconstrued the Federal Arbitration Act. I do not believe that proper application of stare decisis prevents correction of the mistake. Adhering to Southland 513us1$18K 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 265 (1995) 285 Thomas, J., dissenting entails a permanent, unauthorized eviction of state-court power to adjudicate a potentially large class of disputes. Abandoning it does not impair reliance interests to a degree that justifies this evil. Primary behavior is not affected: No rule of conduct is retroactively changed, but only (perhaps) the forum in which violation is to be determined and reme- died. I doubt that many contracts with arbitration clauses would have been forgone, or entered into only for signifi- cantly higher remuneration, absent the Southland guaran- tee. Where, moreover, reliance on Southland did make a significant difference, rescission of the contract for mistake of law would often be available. See 3 A. Corbin, Corbin on Contracts § 616 (1960 ed. and Supp. 1992); Restatement (Second) of Contracts § 152 (1979). I shall not in the future dissent from judgments that rest on Southland. I will, however, stand ready to join four other Justices in overruling it, since Southland will not be- come more correct over time, the course of future lawmaking seems unlikely to be affected by its existence, cf. Pennsyl- vania v. Union Gas Co., 491 U. S. 1, 34­35 (1989) (Scalia, J., concurring in part and dissenting in part), and the accumu- lated private reliance will not likely increase beyond the level it has already achieved (few contracts not terminable at will have more than a 5-year term). For these reasons, I respectfully dissent from the judg- ment of the Court. Justice Thomas, with whom Justice Scalia joins, dissenting. I disagree with the majority at the threshold of this case, and so I do not reach the question that it decides. In my view, the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) does not apply in state courts. I respectfully dissent. I In Southland Corp. v. Keating, 465 U. S. 1 (1984), this Court concluded that § 2 of the FAA "appl[ies] in state as 513us1$18N 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT 286 ALLIED-BRUCE TERMINIX COS. v. DOBSON Thomas, J., dissenting well as federal courts," id., at 12, and "withdr[aws] the power of the states to require a judicial forum for the resolution of claims which the contracting parties agreed to resolve by arbitration," id., at 10. In my view, both aspects of South- land are wrong. A Section 2 of the FAA declares that an arbitration clause contained in "a contract evidencing a transaction involving commerce" shall be "valid, irrevocable, and enforceable, save upon such grounds as exist at law or in equity for the revoca- tion of any contract." 9 U. S. C. § 2; see also § 1 (defining "commerce," as relevant here, to mean "commerce among the several States or with foreign nations"). On its face, and considered out of context, § 2 draws no apparent distinction between federal courts and state courts. But not until 1959-nearly 35 years after Congress enacted the FAA-did any court suggest that § 2 applied in state courts. See Rob- ert Lawrence Co. v. Devonshire Fabrics, Inc., 271 F. 2d 402, 407 (CA2 1959), cert. dism'd, 364 U. S. 801 (1960). No state court agreed until the 1960's. See, e. g., REA Express v. Missouri Pacific R. Co., 447 S. W. 2d 721, 726 (Tex. Civ. App. 1969) (stating that the FAA applies but noting that it had been waived in the case at hand); cf. Rubewa Products Co. v. Watson's Quality Turkey Products, Inc., 242 A. 2d 609, 613 (D. C. 1968) (same). This Court waited until 1984 to con- clude, over a strong dissent by Justice O'Connor, that § 2 extends to the States. See Southland, supra, at 10­16. The explanation for this delay is simple: The statute that Congress enacted actually applies only in federal courts. At the time of the FAA's passage in 1925, laws governing the enforceability of arbitration agreements were generally thought to deal purely with matters of procedure rather than substance, because they were directed solely to the mecha- nisms for resolving the underlying disputes. As then-Judge Cardozo explained: "Arbitration is a form of procedure whereby differences may be settled. It is not a definition of 513US1 Unit: $U18 [01-06-00 06:57:56] PAGES PGT: OPIN Cite as: 513 U. S. 265 (1995) 287 Thomas, J., dissenting the rights and wrongs out of which differences grow."

Red Cross Line, 276 F. 319, 323 (SDNY 1921) ("Arbitration statutes or judicial recognition of the enforce- ability of such provisions do not confer a substantive right, but a remedy for the enforcement of the right which is created by the agreement of the parties"), aff'd, 5 F. 2d 218 (CA2 1924); Cohen & Dayton, The New Federal Arbitration Law, 12 Va. L. Rev. 265, 276 (1926) ("[W]hether or not an arbitration agreement is to be enforced is a question of the law of proce- dure and is determined by the law of the jurisdiction wherein the remedy is sought. That the enforcement of arbitration contracts is within the law of procedure as distinguished from substantive law is well settled by the decisions of our courts" (footnote omitted)); Baum & Pressman, The En- forcement of Commercial Arbitration Agreements in the Federal Courts, 8 N. Y. U. L. Q. Rev. 428, 430 (1931) (referring uncritically to "the preva- lent notions that arbitration legislation affects merely the remedy or pro- cedural aspects and not substance"); 2 J. Beale, Conflict of Laws 1245­1246 (1935) ("American courts, without exception, hold that arbitration agree- ments pertain to remedy or procedure. Consequently, the law of the for[u]m determines their enforceability . . ." (footnote omitted)); cf. Alexan- dria Canal Co. v. Swann, 5 How. 83, 87­88 (1847) (whether a court should grant the parties' motion to refer a lawsuit to a panel of arbitrators, and then should enter judgment on the arbitrators' award, was "not [a ques- tion] upon the rights of the respective parties, but upon the mode of pro- ceeding by which they were determined," and hence was governed by the law of the forum). The prevalent view that arbitration statutes were purely procedural does conflict with this Court's reasoning in Red Cross Line v. Atlantic Fruit Co., 264 U. S. 109 (1924), a case that in other respects undermines Southland's position. See infra, Part I­B. Without analyzing the ques- tion, our opinion in Red Cross Line assumed that the threshold validity of an arbitration agreement (like the validity of other sorts of contracts) is a matter of "substantive" law. See 264 U. S., at 122­123. But our actual holding-that the remedies available to enforce a valid arbitration agree- ment do not involve "substantive" law, see id., at 124­125-was perfectly consistent with the customary view. As discussed below, moreover, the FAA's text clearly reflects Congress' view that the statute it enacted was purely procedural. 513US1 Unit: $U18 [01-06-00 06:58:56] PAGES PGT: OPIN 288 ALLIED-BRUCE TERMINIX COS. v. DOBSON Thomas, J., dissenting attempt to prescribe procedural rules for state courts. See, e. g., Ex parte Gounis, 304 Mo. 428, 437, 263 S. W. 988, 990 (1924) (describing the rule that Congress cannot "regulate or control [state courts'] modes of procedure" as one of the "general principles which have come to be accepted as set- tled constitutional law"). And because the FAA was en- acted against this general background, no one read it as such an attempt. See, e. g., Baum & Pressman, The Enforcement of Commercial Arbitration Agreements in the Federal Courts, 8 N. Y. U. L. Q. Rev. 428, 459 (1931) (noting that the FAA "does not purport to extend its teeth to state proceed- ings," though arguing that it constitutionally could have done so); 6 S. Williston & G. Thompson, Law of Contracts 5368 (rev. ed. 1938) ("Inasmuch as arbitration acts are deemed procedural, the [FAA] applies only to the federal courts . . ." (footnote omitted)); cf. Southland, 465 U. S., at 25­29 (O'Connor, J., dissenting) (describing "unambiguous" legislative history to this effect). Indeed, to judge from the reported cases, it appears that no state court was even asked to enforce the statute for many years after the passage of the FAA. Federal courts, for their part, refused to apply state arbitration statutes in cases to which the FAA was inapplicable. See, e. g., Califor- nia Prune & Apricot Growers' Assn. v. Catz American Co., 60 F. 2d 788 (CA9 1932). Their refusal was not the out- growth of this Court's decision in Swift v. Tyson, 16 Pet. 1 (1842), which held that certain categories of state judicial decisions were not "laws" for purposes of the Rules of Deci- sions Act and hence were not binding in federal courts; even under Swift, state statutes unambiguously constituted "laws." Rather, federal courts did not apply the state arbi- tration statutes because the statutes were not considered substantive laws. See California Prune, supra, at 790 ("It is undoubtedly true that a federal court in proper cases may enforce state laws; but this principle is applicable only when the state legislation invoke[d] creates or establishes a sub- 513us1$18N 03-28-98 15:48:54 PAGES OPINPGT Cite as: 513 U. S. 265 (1995) 289 Thomas, J., dissenting stantive or general right"). In short, state arbitration stat- utes prescribed rules for the state courts, and the FAA pre- scribed rules for the federal courts. It is easy to understand why lawyers in 1925 classified arbitration statutes as procedural. An arbitration agree- ment is a species of forum-selection clause: Without laying down any rules of decision, it identifies the adjudicator of disputes. A strong argument can be made that such forum- selection clauses concern procedure rather than substance. Cf. Fed. Rules Civ. Proc. 73 (district court, with consent of the parties, may refer case to magistrate for resolution), 53 (district court may refer issues to special master). And if a contractual provision deals purely with matters of judi- cial procedure, one might well conclude that questions about whether and how it will be enforced also relate to procedure. The context of § 2 confirms this understanding of the FAA's original meaning. Most sections of the statute plainly have no application in state courts, but rather pre- scribe rules either for federal courts or for arbitration pro- ceedings themselves. Thus, § 3 provides: "If any suit or proceeding be brought in any of the courts of the United States upon any issue referable to arbitration under an agreement in writing for such arbi- tration, the court in which such suit is pending, upon being satisfied that the issue involved in such suit or proceeding is referable to arbitration under such an agreement, shall on application of one of the parties stay the trial of the action until such arbitration has been had in accordance with the terms of the agreement, provid- ing the applicant for the stay is not in default in proceed- ing with such arbitration." 9 U. S. C. § 3 (emphasis added). Section 4 addresses the converse situation, in which a party breaches an arbitra
