吃瓜大本营

The Supreme Court has previously ruled that states need not provide educational funding for 鈥渆ssentially religious endeavors鈥� even as part of an otherwise neutral scholarship program. The Court explained that there is a 鈥減lay in the joints鈥� between the Free Exercise Clause and the Establishment Clause and that states have a clear historical interest in avoiding taxpayer support for religious education. This case will test that principle by deciding whether the Montana Supreme Court properly relied on the state constitution to strike down a scholarship program that would have diverted millions of government dollars to religious schooling.
