Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Under the ordinary scrutiny test, courts have been willing to allow age-based differential treatment if it is rationally related to a legitimate government interest. This means that the government must have a valid reason for treating different age groups differently, and the court must be able to find some logical connection between the government's interest and the differential treatment. This is a lower standard of scrutiny than is applied to sex-based, race-based, ethnic-based, or religion-based differential treatment.
