Lawsuit against faith-based schools continues gaining steam

A class action lawsuit accusing the US Department of Education of wrongly allowing discrimination against LGBTQ students at faith-based schools has grown in number of participants and in general support over the past 15 months.

The Religious Exemption Account­ability Project filed its lawsuit March 29, 2021, challenging Title IX exemptions granted to religious schools that re­ceived tax dollars through grants and scholarships.
