Maine was found guilty of religious discrimination. They would only provide tuition assistance to private schools that weren't religious. Colorado also denies religious schools any public money. The KKK made sure this was part of the Colorado Constitution, it was an anti-Catholic measure because most private schools in 1876 were founded by the Church.

Thursday, the Supremes struck down NY state's racist concealed carry policies that gave pistol permits only to the well connected or those who had money for bribes. Justice Thomas wrote the 6-3 decision which ironically was released on his birthday. More decisions will be released on Friday and possibly later.

So does that mean that states are required to provide tax dollars to religious schools now? Is that a new precedent, and does this infer that religious institutions should now pay taxes so they contribute to that tax dollar pool?
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

Wait until non-christian denominations like Islam and Buddhism start to get money to see how fast they restrict it to just christians.
Pell Grants and the GI Bill have been providing funds for colleges for decades. ROTC paid for my roommate to attend my Catholic Jesuit college. In Canada, elementary schools were Catholic and had nuns and priests paid salaries by the state.
Colorado's constitution forbids the state providing education dollars to private schools. This was put into the constitution by anti-Catholic KKK members. Will this part of the constitution be repealed?

Your sources are wrong (if they helped you form that opinion), we don't care about that at all. We care about the woke indoctrination in public schools that has been filling children's heads with destructive nonsense and not enough critical learning.
I'm pretty sure Muslims and Buddists are also not in favor of the new woke ideology either.. we welcome them to the fight!
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
