- W229905554 abstract "In 2002, as the Supreme Court decided the constitutionality of publicly funded voucher programs in Zelman v. Simmons-Harris, Robert Chanin, then the general counsel for the National Education Association, said that regardless of the Court's decision, voucher opponents would have many options under state constitutions. They contained, he said, a variety of Mickey Mouse provisions suitable for legal assaults. Following Douglas County's adoption of a voucher program in 2011, Colorado has begun its second round of cartoonish constitutional conflict.

School choice advocates, however, had targeted the district in school board elections. As a result, the normally nonpartisan elections turned partisan in 2009, when the Republican Party endorsed a slate of four candidates and handily defeated candidates endorsed by the teachers union. Those efforts bore fruit in March 2011 when Douglas County's school board unanimously approved the Pilot Choice Scholarship Program. Through this plan, any student who had been enrolled in district schools for at least one year could apply for a voucher of approximately $4,600, equal to 75 percent of state per-pupil funding, to attend a private school, with the school district keeping the other 25 percent. Religious schools would not have to waive admission requirements to participate, but would have to offer an exemption for voucher students who wished to be excused from religious services.
