The Supreme Court Ruled Taxpayer Dollars Can Go Toward Religious Schools. LGBTQ Advocates Are Worried

, was brought by two families who live in parts of rural Maine that don’t have a public school. Instead, families in those areas could use a taxpayer-funded tuition assistance program to send their kids to an approved private school—as long as the school was secular. Maine banned parents from using the money to send their kids to schools that provide religious education, a rule aimed at preventing public funds from being used for religious activity.

“But once a state decides to do so, it cannot disqualify some private schools solely because they are religious.” In her dissenting opinion, Justice Sonia Sotomayor argued that the decision “continues to dismantle the wall of separation between church and state that the Framers fought to build.” The ruling is a win for the school choice movement, which supports programs that enable parents to use public funds to send their child to schools beyond traditional public schools—an option conservative legal groups have long supported. Kevin Roberts, the President of the conservative Heritage Foundation, said in a statement that the decision protects “parents who simply want to send their kids to schools that match their values.

So taxes are going to schools I guess the pope is just worrying about his salary knowledge is a religious thing and it should be fought freely

'Surpreme Court'

Not Burger King you can’t have it your way 😳

Well, start up gender diverse schools then. Simples

GOOD ! ABOUT TIME !!!!

Prayer is important. Never forget it. God is Love.

I really don't understand. So they can allow in only who they want, teach religious bullshit if they do please plus get federal tax dollars? Why?

Religious exclusivism erodes religious freedoms, free speech and the right to choose!

The aim of LGBTQ advocates appears to be 1) make drag queens and gender ideology and a host of outré sexuality matters part of the public school curriculum, and 2) deny parents any way out.

Then tax every church and private school

It's always about them, isn't it.

So if my tax dollars can go toward churches, tax them, by federal government

NO, NO, NO‼️A Supreme Court that prostitutes itself to the point of destroying the USConstitution, Rule Of law, SEPARATION OF CHURCH & STATE, Must Be Disbanded!!

Can't wait till this bullshit month of appeasement is over with.

Not a surprise coming from a court sympathetic towards Christian theocratic ideals. SCOTUSWatch

I'm sorry, what So you're telling me religious schools that CHARGE THEIR STUDENTS to attend and can ban students for being LGBTQ, disabled, poor, etc. are getting my tax dollars meant for public schools that serve the community? SCOTUS better build a taller fence at this rate.

Misleading headline - Maine doesnt have a large enough population to fund public schools and give parents choice to public or private schools, the way its written the court saw no reason to not include accredited religious schools.

FFS

Well, wait until tax dollars start going to Muslim schools. 😂

How may LGBTQ give a shit?

They need to start paying taxes then

I’m usually proud to pay taxes but not to private schools, this is bullshit
