The Catholic Association, a socially conservative advocacy group, sees the ruling as a strike against laws built on "anti-Catholic" sentiment.

Catholic Association Senior Fellow Ashley McGuire said in a statement that she believed the decision was "another blow to bigoted and arcane anti-Catholic laws."

"Religious families, and even families that aren't religious but see the value in faith-based schools, should not be cut out from programs that help parents make the best educational choice for their kids," stated McGuire.

"Maine's law and others like it especially hurt low-income children who suffer the most in failed schools. Today's win helps to end anti-religious discrimination and expands sorely-needed school choice for low-income families."
