What happened
A District Court Judge refused to dismiss the lawsuit challenging Wyoming’s universal school-choice program. This decision means the legal challenge against the program will continue, despite the state program pledging to fund private-school expenses for enrolled families. The program allows Wyoming residents to receive up to $7,000 in state funds per student for private K-12 education.
