Supreme Court OKs Scholarships for Rel.Schools; Banning Scholarships for Rel. Schools Is Unconst.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled today (June 30, 2020) that Montana's exclusion of religious schools from a state scholarship program funded by tax credits violates the Constitution, according to the NPR website.

The 5-4 decision is a victory for parents who wanted to use the tax credit to help send children to religious schools.

The decision is also a victory for conservative religious groups.

About 70% of all private schools in Montana are religiously affiliated.
