October 2010, he was the first of several federal court judges to hear a case concerning the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act. The main question here is whether the Commerce Clause of the Constitution of the United States gives the United States Congress the authority to buy any commercial product, which in this case is health insurance. Judge George Steeh ruled that the Act is constitutional, writing: “These decisions, viewed in the aggregate have clear and direct impacts on health care providers, taxpayers and the insured population who ultimately pay for the care provided to those who go without insurance,” and that choosing not to obtain health insurance qualifies as an example of “activities that substantially affect interstate commerce.” According to the Supreme Court of the United States, if a federal law arbitrates activities that substantially affect interstate commerce, then that law complies with the Commerce Clause.
Judge George Steeh tossed a civil rights lawsuit filed by a couple who claimed Detroit police officers operating as a “dog death squad” shot and killed their three dogs during a marijuana raid. He dismissed the suit filed by Kevin Thomas and Nikita Smith against Detroit police officers, saying they couldn’t recover because their dogs did not have a city license. Judge George Steeh reasoned that because the dogs were unlicensed, Thomas and Smith had no legitimate possessory interest in the dogs, and there could be no violation of the Fourth Amendment. “When a person owns a dog that is unlicensed, in the eyes of the law, it is no different than owning any other type of illegal property or contraband,” Judge George Steeh wrote. As precedent, Judge George Steeh cited a decision by the Chicago-based 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that held a plaintiff didn’t have a legitimate possessory interest in an unregistered submachine gun seized by police without a warrant

The painting of a woman with a book, titled “The Novel Reader,” is protected from seizure, and the Detroit Institute of Arts can’t be ordered to give it up, U.S. District Judge George Caram Steeh said
Attention, all of America’s enemies: Cease your hostile planning against these here United States of America as your goal has been accomplished. No, the USA was not defeated by foreign enemies, but by home-grown political correct drowns products of academia, Hollywood, and the news media. All of whom have forced upon the USA political correctness. Part of this hideous ideology is to attack Christians and Christianity.
