Alexandria Women’s Health Clinic (1993): Bray, Δ, is in a private anti-abortion group who tried to stop women from traveling interstate to abortion clinics.  Clinic claims deprivation of their civil rights [42 USC § 1985(3): “If two or more persons conspire or go in disguise on the highway…for the purpose of depriving…any person of the equal protection of the laws…”]

(a)     Ct: Classification is women seeking abortion v. everybody else—no sex-based discrimination present

(b)    No evidence that Δ discriminates against all women
