In reaching this conclusion, the Michigan Supreme Court considered recent U.S. Supreme Court cases as well as a precedent Michigan Supreme Court case that was decided soon after the voter initiated Proposal C passed, amending Article 8 Section 2 of the Michigan Constitution to prohibit appropriations for nonpublic school educational services (i.e., to support the attendance of any student or the employment of any person at any such nonpublic school.
