flag Texas AG Ken Paxton lawsuits three state work-study programs, claiming religious participation restrictions violate the First Amendment.

flag Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has sued the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, challenging three state work-study programs over claims they violate the First Amendment by restricting religious participation. flag The lawsuit argues the programs’ nonpartisan and non-sectarian rules prevent religious students and seminary attendees from receiving state-funded jobs, effectively discriminating based on religious expression. flag Paxton seeks to end these restrictions, asserting they unlawfully condition financial aid on nonreligious activity. flag The programs, which received over $8 million in funding for the 2026 fiscal year, support low-income students through employment at approved institutions and employers. flag The coordinating board has not commented.
