The high court's lengthy opinion overturns a ruling two years ago that the teacher-led pledge was unconstitutional in public schools. That appeals court decision set off a national uproar and would have stripped the reference to God from the version of the pledge said by about 9.6 million schoolchildren in California and other western states.

Going to wait until there's more out on the ruling.

There was no ruling, they just punted on a technicality.  The next victimized atheist will probably succeed where this one failed.
