Nonilex<p>Justice Neil <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Gorsuch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gorsuch</span></a> suggested that a decision in favor of St. Isidore may not be as sweeping as some think because states could bring <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/CharterSchools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CharterSchools</span></a> more directly under govt control to avoid allowing <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/religious" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>religious</span></a> entities into the program. However, most states rely heavily on <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/private" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>private</span></a> entities for their charter programs.
<br>Under questioning from Gorsuch, Solicitor General D. John Sauer said states could avoid funding religious charter schools if they wanted to.<br>
