The legislature of the of State A passed a new law requiring all drivers of any motorized vehicle to be 21 years of age or older in order to obtain a "Drivers License." The purpose of the law is to protect the safety motorists, because stats show over 51% of the car accidents reported in the State of A, involve drivers under 21. Drivers who have a driver's license issued by another state, with lesser age requirement, can't drive in State A.

A federal law prohibits employers from discriminating against employees on the basis of age.

Terry would be able to pass the driving test requirements of State A but is barred solely because of his age.Terry has a driver's license issued by the state of Ohio qualifying him to drive.

Employer, Comet and Terry bring a lawsuit into United States District Court in the State of A against State A'sofficials to have the driving license law declared invalid.
