Supreme Court strikes down state ban on taxpayer funding for religious schools


The Supreme Court on Tuesday struck down a ban on taxpayer funding for religious schools, in a narrow but significant win for the school choice movement. The state's revenue department made a rule banning those tax-credit scholarships from going to religious schools before the state's supreme court later struck down the entire program. SUPREME COURT JUSTICES CLASH OVER MAJOR SCHOOL-CHOICE CASE“A State need not subsidize private education. But once a State decides to do so, it cannot disqualify some private schools solely because they are religious," Roberts wrote in the court's opinion. The state supreme court overruled that decision and ordered the entire program to be scrapped.
