Teachers sue to block Cleveland voucher program
The American Federation of Teachers filed a U S District Court suit in Cleveland claiming the tuition voucher plan violates the First Amendment and should end immediately. The action challenges use of up to 2250 dollars for private and parochial school tuition for low income families. A similar July suit by other voucher opponents argues tax support for parochial schools breaches church state separation. The case may join with a May Ohio Supreme Court ruling that found no First Amendment violation.
