The Nebraska Supreme Court has ruled that a measure seeking to repeal a new conservative-backed law providing taxpayer money for private school tuition should appear on the state's November ballot.

A ballot measure seeking to repeal a new conservative-backed law that provides taxpayer money for private school tuition should appear on the state’s November ballot, the state Supreme Court ruled Friday.

The court found that the ballot measure does not illegally target a government appropriation, which was what lawyers who sought to pull the repeal measure from the ballot had argued.

An order to strip the repeal measure from the ballot “would frustrate the fundamental purpose of the referendum provision to give the people the right to vote on specific legislation,” the unanimous ruling read.
