Stateline: Do state laws that prevent taxpayer dollars from aiding churches automatically exclude religious institutions from all state programs — even if it’s one to resurface a playground at a day care center?

Or, many states fear, it could jeopardize a multitude of programs, in which state and local governments provide tax dollars to religious groups via school vouchers or through payments for social services.
