June 5, 2013, 5:07pmSasha Volokh has a new article on Reason.org discussing the implications of the recent Louisiana Supreme Court ruling on school vouchers, where he notes that despite solid legal footing at the federal level, voucher programs can face legal barriers based on state constitutional language.
Implications of the Louisiana Supreme Court Voucher Ruling

The opinion offers a fascinating glimpse into the developing field of non-religious state challenges to school voucher programs.
