There was no severability clause and that is at the centerpiece of VA's suit. Cuccinelli argued that
specifically.

Thanks for the link there. It does contain one interesting little tidbit, however . . . it mentions that the U.S. Supreme Court can invalidate specific provisions of a Federal law without invalidating the entire law -- even in cases where there is no non-severability clause written into the law.
