UNCONSTITUTIONAL

You cannot give federal tax dollars to organizations that discriminate based on religion.

And furthermore, religious organizations that do NOT pay taxes, should NOT be receiving federal tax dollars. That's called the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.

It's unfortunate for this country that the Supreme Court is now being filled with more Republican judges that do not have the constitutional integrity needed to overturn this narrow-minded Congress's anti-Constitutional laws.

WASHINGTON - The House voted Thursday to let Head Start centers consider religion when hiring workers, overshadowing its moves to strengthen the preschool program's academics and finances.

The Republican-led House approved a bill that lets churches and other faith-based preschool centers hire only people who share their religion, yet still receive federal tax dollars.

The House passed the bill 231-184; only 23 Democrats voted for it.

GOP lawmakers, with backing from the White House, contend that preschool centers should not have to give up their religious autonomy in order to receive federal grants.
