The Civil Rights Comm'n takes on the Blaine Amendments

Media advisory here:

The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights will address school choice, the Blaine Amendments and anti-Catholicism during a public briefing at Commission headquarters on June 1, 2007. Specifically, this briefing will examine whether certain state constitutional barriers to school choice legislation – known as Blaine Amendments – discriminate against Catholics and whether, more generally, they discriminate against religion.

Excellent.  For my own "take" on the Blaine Amendments and school choice, see, e.g., this.
