It is therefore ADJUDGED and DECLARED that the government defendants violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment to the United St ates Constitution, insofar as they delegated authority to a religious organization to impose religiously based restrictions on the expenditure of taxpayer funds, and thereby impliedly endorsed the religious beliefs of the USCCB and the Catholic Church. The government defendants motion for summary judgment is DENIED. The USCCBs motion to dismiss and motion for summary are DENIED. (RGS, law2) |
