Supreme Court Decision Syllabus (SCOTUS Podcast)
Catholic Charities v. Wisconsin (First Amendment)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Catholic Charities v. Wisconsin
Wisconsin law exempts certain religious organizations from paying unemployment compensation taxes. The relevant statute exempts nonprofit organizations “operated primarily for religious purposes” and “operated, supervised, controlled, or principally supported by a church or convention or association of churches.” Wis. Stat. §108.02(15)(h)(2). Petitioners, Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., and four of its subentities, sought this exemption as organizations controlled by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Superior, Wisconsin. The Wisconsin Supreme Court denied the exemption, holding that petitioners were not “operated primarily for religious purposes” because they neither engaged in proselytization nor limited their charitable services to Catholics. Held: The Wisconsin Supreme Court’s application of §108.02(15)(h)(2) to petitioners violates the First Amendment.
Justice Sotomayor delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court.
