The Supreme Court will hear argument Nov. 3 in a case brought by the Archdiocese of Denver, Catholic parishes and parents, who say Colorado discriminates against religion by refusing them an exemption from the universal preschool program's nondiscrimination agreement, SCOTUSblog reported. The 10th Circuit ruled for Colorado, which says the preschools are welcome if they follow the same rules as every publicly funded preschool.
