On July 1, 2022, the Northeast Ohio Friends of Public Education and Ohio Public Education Partners joined the Heights Coalition for Public Education to file an amicus brief in Franklin County Common Pleas Court to support plaintiffs in the Vouchers Hurt Ohio lawsuit. The amicus brief asks the court not to dismiss the Vouchers Hurt Ohio lawsuit, as requested by state defendants. The Vouchers Hurt Ohio litigation at issue—Columbus City School District et al. v. State of Ohio et al— challenges the constitutionality of state funded EdChoice and EdChoice Expansion vouchers.
