As pаrt оf а prоgrаm tо meet the needs of a growing homeless population, a city council appropriated funds to construct a shelter and community center in the downtown area and sought bids from organizations interested in operating the center. The group submitting the lowest bid was a religious organization, which ran a number of shelters and food kitchens in adherence to the religion’s central tenet of aiding the needy. While church members never actively preached to people using the shelters, it did make available reading materials about its religion. The only other bidder was a local nonprofit foundation not affiliated with any church. The nonprofit foundation concluded that it was underbid because it was subject to a state tax imposed on all facilities offering overnight lodging, whether run for profit or not for profit; the only exemption was for facilities run by an organized religion. If the nonprofit foundation seeks to challenge the application of the state tax to its operation of the homeless shelter, which of the following statements is most correct?
