WSJ: Whatever his jurisprudential faults, Chief Justice John Roberts
often sides with the angels in disputes over religious liberty. Case in
point: In a 5-4 decision Tuesday, the Supreme Court resurrected a
Montana scholarship program that was in jeopardy because students used
it to attend religious schools.
“A State need not subsidize private education,” the Chief Justice writes for the majority in Espinoza v. Montana Department of Revenue. “But once a State decides to do so, it cannot disqualify some private schools (because of their religious affiliation.)"
