Agudath Israel Statement Applauding Supreme Court Ruling in Carson v. Makin

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

59% : This ruling eases the way for state aid to flow to parents who choose to send their children to religious schools.
51% : "Today's ruling endorses Agudah's longtime position that states may not bar families from using state aid at the school of their choice simply because they choose a school that includes a religious curriculum."
50% : Writing for the Court in the 6-3 decision, Chief Justice John R. Roberts asserted, "The State pays tuition for certain students at private schools -- so long as the schools are not religious.
46% : The law, however, provided that parents could send a student to any school except those that included religious instruction, on the grounds that the United States Constitution prohibited government aid to religious institutions.
