ADF files opening brief with U.S. Supreme Court in Ariz. school choice suit State tuition tax credit program defended before nation’s highest court
WASHINGTON — Alliance Defense Fund attorneys filed an opening brief Friday with the U.S. Supreme Court in defense of school choice in Arizona. The brief asks that the suit be dismissed because the opponents have not proven that they have suffered any legal injury that would give them standing to sue over the state’s tuition tax credit program. Arizona’s program, like many others across the country, merely allows state residents to claim a tax credit for donations to private organizations that provide scholarships to private schools. ADF represents Arizona Christian School Tuition Organization, a party in the case, which is one of about 53 non-profit 501(c)(3) corporations organized to distribute private donations in the form of scholarships to over 27,000 students attending hundreds of private schools throughout the state. Case Name: Arizona Christian School Tuition Organization v. Winn Full news release, quotes, and related media resources available at the following link: http://www.adfmedia.org/News/PRDetail/3782 ADF is a legal alliance of Christian attorneys and like-minded organizations defending the right of people to freely live out their faith.
