Parochial School Aid Backers Push State Bill
Annapolis AP advocates of direct state aid to nonpublic schools pressed a 15-senator bill before the Senate Finance Committee. They argue textbooks transportation and other services would aid Catholic schools, while opponents call the plan unconstitutional and a democratic mandate breach. Money estimates range from about 17.9 million to 104 million annually. Gov Mandel says no funds are available this budget year. Civil liberties groups warn aid sustains religious and racial discrimination, with critics noting segregation impacts and schooling choices.
