Great article! I would just say that Iowa is currently the leading state in school choice. But I also think STOs are a better option than vouchers because that is a source that never touches the government’s hands while vouchers are tax dollars.

Well done.

Is there an index of states that still have "Blaine" amendments on the books that one could access?

While I’m not opposed to state sponsorship of Catholic educational and religious functioning in principle. I think under the current moral and political framework such a program has the serious risk of the “Irelandization” or “germanization” of Catholic education.

Where a nominally Catholic education apparatus is both financially and ideologically subservient to a deeply anti Catholic political regime, which utilizes its financial influence over Catholic institutions to subvert any real sense of Catholicity.
