Illinois’ Invest in Kids Act voucher program and the separation of church and state
EXCERPT
Illinois’ Invest in Kids Act voucher program, diverts tax dollars to private schools via a tax credit scholarship scheme. Ninety-five percent of schools receiving voucher money are religious schools. Many of those lobbying most strongly for continuation of the program, which was intended to sunset after five years, are from the religious schools that are recipients of the voucher funds.
