Va Housing

In order to promote "traditional" family values, the Virginia Housing Authority, has decided to stop making housing loans to gays and unmarried single people. NPR's Adam Hochberg reports that the agency, which loans money to low and moderate-income first-time home buyers, has taken the step at the urging of Republican Gov. George Allen. Federal officials are examining policy changes for possible civil rights violations.
