Utah’s school voucher program is unconstitutional, judge rules
A Utah judge sided with the state’s largest teachers’ union Friday, striking down the “Utah Fits All” school voucher program. Gov. Spencer Cox said the state will appeal.
Utah’s $100 million school voucher program violates the state’s constitution, a judge ruled Friday.
“[Because] the Program is a legislatively created, publicly funded education program aimed at elementary and secondary education, it must satisfy the constitutional requirements applicable to the ‘public education system’ set forth in the Utah Constitution,” Third District Judge Laura Scott wrote in her ruling. “The Program is not ‘open to all children of the state.’”
Gov. Spencer Cox, one of the defendants in the case, said Friday the state will appeal Scott’s ruling.
