Maine religious schools might not participate in state tuition program, despite Supreme Court victory

Religious schools got what they wanted when the Supreme Court allowed them to participate in a state tuition program.

But the state attorney general said the ruling will be for naught unless the schools are willing to abide by the same antidiscrimination law as other private schools that participate in the program.

An attorney for the families criticized the "knee-jerk" comments, and the leader of a religious group predicted further litigation.
