Colo. Court Strikes Down School Voucher Law
A Colorado judge has struck down the state's school voucher law. Denver District Court Judge Joseph Meyer said the idea behind the law was "laudable" but it violated the Colorado Constitution because it "run[s] afoul fo the principle of local control."
Colorado's law was the first enacted in the country following the Supreme Court's ruling approving vouchers last year.
Opponents object to giving state support to religious schools and contend the plan will undermine public education by siphoning off students and the tax dollars they bring.
That's our position.
