Extractions: or other generalized assistance to parochial schools." Contact: Raanan Weintraub, (202) 387-2800 Todays U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Mitchell v. Helms deals a serious blow to both religion and the Constitution. In ruling that the State-through a public school district-can share equipment and instructional materials with private and parochial schools, the Court weakened Americas First Freedom: religious liberty. In approving direct government assistance to parochial schools of equipment they acknowledge can be used exclusively for religious instruction, the Supreme Court blasted a hole in the wall separating church and state. While such a breach is always dangerous, the impact may prove to be less than advocates of vouchers and charitable choice would hope for. Only four justices joined the plurality ruling. Two others found this aid of minimum consequence not requiring a constitutional determination-clearly analysis not applicable to vouchers or charitable choice. This decision will have tremendous impact on public and private schools throughout the country. It may set a new precedent for the approval of religious school vouchers and charitable choice aid to church-run social service programs by providing churches and church-run schools new access to the public treasury. But todays decision must be read together with last weeks decision in

Extractions: Taxpayer money can be used to buy computers and other instructional materials for religious schools, the Supreme Court ruled June 28 as it lowered the figurative wall of separation between church and state. The 6-3 ruling in Mitchell v. Helms should speed federal efforts to connect every American classroom to the internet. The decision also is sure to be cited as a big victory for proponents of using public money for tuition aid to families who send their children to religious schools. Politically charged legal fights over tuition vouchers are being waged in numerous lower courts. In splintered voting, the justices amassed the votes of a majority of the court to overturn two 1970s Supreme Court decisions banning provisions of many materials to parochial schools. More recent rulings already had blunted the effect of those decisions.

High Court Decisions Mixed for States The Supreme Court in its recently completed term reined in state laws that give visitation rights to grandparents, cast doubt on open primaries, struck down the bans on "partial birth" abortions and ruled state officials may not disclose personal information from motor vehicle records. But the states also had their share of wins. The justices shielded state agencies from "whistleblower" lawsuits, upheld state limits on campaign contributions and said limited public aid can flow to parochial schools.
