Description: The American Civil Liberties Union and Americans United for Separation of Church and State filed suit against New Hampshire’s Education Tax Credit Program. The program allows taxpaying businesses to donate their private funds to private scholarship organizations and then claim a tax credit for the donation. The scholarship organizations then provide the privately donated funds to families who can then use them at any private school, religious or non-religious.

Thursday, Aug 28, 2014
The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Gregory S. Baylor in Duncan v. State of New Hampshire regarding the New Hampshire Supreme Court’s decision Thursday to reject a challenge to the state’s Education Tax Credit Program:
“Parents should be able to choose what’s best for their own children. New Hampshire’s program allows businesses to help make that a reality for many families. The New Hampshire Supreme Court was right to unanimously reject an attack on this program.”
