The Supreme Court, in a 6-3 decision, ruled in favor of Catholic Charities, allowing religious organizations to object to state taxes on religious grounds. The case centered on a Minnesota law that imposed a sales tax on goods and services provided by religious organizations, which Catholic Charities argued violated their First Amendment rights. Justice Samuel Alito, writing for the majority, stated that the law placed a substantial burden on the free exercise of religion. The decision could have broader implications for how states can tax religious organizations and may lead to further legal challenges regarding the separation of church and state.
