Religious preschools in Colorado, specifically under the Archdiocese of Denver, are pushing back against state rules requiring nondiscrimination, particularly toward LGBTQ families, despite eagerly seeking state funding through Colorado's Universal Preschool Program. While some schools comply with the rules, others demand exemptions, arguing that their religious beliefs justify discrimination.
This conflict follows a 2022 ruling in Maine, which allowed religious schools access to public funds. The preschools, facing financial hardship and closure, are appealing the case, hoping for a favorable decision from the conservative-leaning Supreme Court. The case highlights ongoing tensions between public funding, religious freedom, and discrimination.
