The trail of Lemon V Kurtzman was a ground breaking case that took place in the state of Pennsylvania. This all started when the state of Pennsylvania passed a law that allowed the local government to use money to fund educational programs that taught religious based lesson, activities and studies. Maybe it doesn't sound so bad but in reality its a constitutional issue a violation of the first amendment.
Alton Lemon filed this case, he was a Pennsylvania instructor who claimed that the state had violated the first amendment. The first amendment states that “congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or impeding the free exercise of religion”… In other words saying that congress cannot make a law saying thats its okay
