Supreme Court Rules in Favor of Religious Liberty in Carson v. Makin
The government cannot exclude students who attend religious schools from utilizing funds from a state tuition assistance program, the Supreme Court ruled on June 21. To do so would constitute a violation of the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment, per the court’s 6-3 decision in Carson v. Makin, a case concerning a Maine law that restricted families from participating in an otherwise generally available high school student aid program unless the tuition was used at a “nonsectarian” school.
“NRB’s membership is diligently protecting and advocating for crucial First Amendment freedoms every day. We are proud to have members fighting to preserve families’ opportunity to freely enroll their children in faith-based education in alignment with their conscience and values,” said NRB CEO Troy A. Miller. “NRB applauds the decision of the Supreme Court in Carson v. Makin and stands against religious discrimination in all forms.”
