canada cialis legal challenge to Arizona’s school choice programs for special needs and foster children on February 20, 2007. The Arizona Supreme Court rejected the first challenge in January 2007, and once again, IJ is intervening to defend the programs on behalf of parents.
Unfortunately, on March 25, 2009, the Arizona Supreme Court declared that Arizona’s innovative programs violate a unique provision Arizona Constitution’s prohibiting appropriations of public funds “in aid of . . . private and sectarian schools.” The ruling runs contrary to decades of Arizona Supreme Court precedent that had always held that programs that provide aid to individuals, not institutions, are constitutional. The ruling also ignored a key holding in the Court’s 1999 decision in Kotterman v. Killian, which upheld Arizona’s Individual Scholarship Tax Credit Program, that school choice programs primarily benefit families and children and that any benefit to private and religious schools was purely incidental.
Fortunately, the Supreme Court’s decision in Cain v. Horne did reaffirm that tax credits do not constitute appropriations, which sends a strong signal to school choice opponents that the Arizona Supreme Court is not going to overrule its decision in Kotterman v. Killian. The practical impact of the Cain decision is that Arizona’s existing school choice tax credit programs will continue to operate, and IJ our allies will work with the Arizona Legislature to pursue every opportunity to expand those programs, particularly to assist the hundreds of families devastated by the Court’s shameful decision striking down the voucher programs.
