BREYER, J., dissenting 

uttered by its clearly identified affiliate is forced hypocrisy,
not free speech.  See ibid. 

In sum, the Policy Requirement conditioned federal funds 
on  an  unavoidable  and  irreversible  distortion  of  respond-
ents’  protected  speech.  We  therefore  held  in  AOSI I  that 
the Policy Requirement “violates the First Amendment and 
cannot be sustained.”  Id., at 221.

On remand from our decision, the District Court did what 
district  courts  ought  to  do.  It  “tailor[ed]  ‘the  scope  of  the
remedy’  to  fit  ‘the  nature  and  extent  of  the  constitutional 
violation’ ” that we identified in AOSI I.  Hills v. Gautreaux, 
425 U. S. 284, 294 (1976) (quoting Milliken v. Bradley, 418 
U. S. 717, 744 (1974)).

The  District  Court,  like  our  Court,  recognized  that  re-
spondents’ work—and with it their protected speech—has
a global reach.  But respondents, it turns out, use different
organizational  structures  to  deliver  services  in  different 
places.  106 F. Supp. 3d 355, 360–361 (SDNY 2015).  Some-
times, particularly when foreign governments (or our own
government) require, respondents operate through legally 
separate affiliates incorporated abroad.  Ibid.; see also, e.g., 
App. 368, 373–375.

In the District Court’s view, those corporate formalities 
did  not  meaningfully  change  the  First  Amendment  calcu-
lus.  See  106  F. Supp.  3d,  at  360–361.   Respondents,  to-
gether with their affiliates, convey a clear, consistent mes-
sage  to  high-risk  populations,  government  officials, 
healthcare  professionals,  prospective  employees,  and  pri-
vate donors across the globe.  See, e.g., App. 370–371, 391,
460–461.  They share the same name, logo, and branding—
all of which use identical colors, fonts, and imagery.  See, 
e.g., id., at 445–455.  They adhere to shared values, work 
towards common goals, and coordinate their collective mes-
