10:24Now PlayingThe Supreme Court has just passed down a ruling that grants religious schools access to government programs that offer tuition aid for private schools, essentially funneling taxpayer money to religious schools despite any discriminatory practices committed by the schools. Chief Justice John Roberts claims that excluding religious private schools from these tuition aid programs is a form of religious discrimination that violates citizen’s constitutional freedom to practice their religion. Ana Kasparian and David Shuster discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 68 pm ET.

"The Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that Maine can’t exclude religious schools from a program that offers tuition aid for private education, a decision that could ease religious organizations’ access to taxpayer money.
The 6-3 outcome could fuel a renewed push for school choice programs in some of the 18 states that have so far not directed taxpayer money to private, religious education. The most immediate effect of the court’s ruling beyond Maine probably will be felt next door in Vermont, which has a similar program.
The decision is the latest in a line of rulings from the Supreme Court that have favored religion-based discrimination claims. The court is separately weighing the case of a football coach who says he has a First Amendment right to pray at midfield immediately after games.
Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for a conservative majority that the Maine program violates the Constitution’s protections for religious freedoms."
