Explain your reasoning in 3-5 sentences for this passage. (not really a passage but you get the point lol)



A federal law allowed for the allocation of federal aid to provide computer equipment in public and private schools for “secular, neutral and non-ideological” programs. In Jefferson Parrish, Louisiana, about 30% of the funding allocated under this law went to private schools, many of them religiously affiliated. Several public-school parents sued, arguing that the law allocating funds for educational materials to private schools violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. The Fifth Circuit ruled that this provision did violate the First Amendment because it was an impermissible governmental aid to religious schools. The Ninth Circuit, in analyzing the same issue in a different case, said that there was no violation of the First Amendment. A recent Supreme Court decision already decided that it was ok for public school teachers to offer remedial courses in parochial school classrooms. The Solicitor General of the U.S. filed a brief asking the Court to grant certiorari.

It is represented on the map by a thin line.
Part of this border follows a natural boundary.

(PLEASEEEEEEEEE HELP)Because I see no certainty that the seceding states will ever be confederated again; none that the border states will secede at all; and if they should, I see no reliable ground for believing that they would incorporate themselves with the Gulf or cotton states in a new government. I see no surety either that Texas would unite with them.

James G. Taliaferro

Which statement best summarizes Taliaferro's argument?

The cotton states would need a new government if they seceded.
Texas would be sure to unite against the seceded states.
There is no reason to believe that any states that seceded would unite under a confederation.
It is very unlikely that all of the border states will secede.
