May a state bar parents from selecting a religious school as part of a generally available scholarship program, or does that violate the free exercise clause and the equal protection clause of the U.S. Constitution? These are the questions the U.S. Supreme Court will consider when it hears Espinoza v. Montana Department of Revenue, a case litigated by the Institute for Justice.
The case will have national implications for school choice programs, especially in states that have so-called Blaine Amendments—state constitutional provisions that we imposed in the 1800’s as a means of discriminating against Catholics but are being used today by the teachers’ unions and their allies to discriminate against educational options for parents who might select any religious school for their children.
