1Opinion of the Court

ANDERSON, Circuit Judge.

Jeffrey Wolfe, an Administrative Law Judge (“ALJ”) within the Social Security Administration (“SSA”), was denied permission to collect royalties from the publisher of a textbook he wrote on Social Security disability law. He asked the district court to overturn the agency’s decision and to enter a declaratory judgment that the governing regulation, 5 C.F.R. § 2635.807(a), restricted employee speech in violation of the First Amendment. The district court denied his claims, and he appealed. We affirm the court’s decision for the reasons set forth below.
