Summary
The Supreme Court is hearing a case involving Catholic preschools challenging their exclusion from a Colorado state-funded program, The Philadelphia Inquirer and ABC News reported on Tuesday 3 November, after CBS News reported on 2 November that the Archdiocese of Denver and Catholic preschools said they were unlawfully excluded from Colorado's universal preschool program over their refusal to admit students from LGBTQ families. The court considers whether Catholic preschools in Colorado that decline to enroll families with gay and transgender parents can participate in a state program, The NY Times wrote, NBC News writing that the arguments are over whether Catholic entities should be exempted from Colorado's anti-discrimination rules for its taxpayer-funded preschool program, and PBS NewsHour called it the latest religious-rights case before the conservative-majority court.
