The U.S. Justice Department is suing Louisiana in New Orleans federal court to block 2014-15 vouchers for students in public school systems that are under federal desegregation orders.

Earlier this week, the Southern Poverty Law Center filed a federal lawsuit contending that Alabama’s new scholarship tax credit program violates the Equal Protection clause and harms the low-income students attending failing public schools whom the law is intended to help.

Деталей не знаю, но вряд ли негров не принимают.

Угу, там наоборот говорят, что "almost all the students using vouchers are black".

Вообще, какая-то слишком тонкая ситуация. Стороны путаются в показаниях.
