Boy Scouts of America to vote on lifting ban on gay Scouts and leaders

The board of directors of the Boy Scouts of America will vote next week on a resolution that would effectively end its national policy prohibiting homosexuals from participating as Scouts or as Scout leaders. “A resolution will be put forth by the national board a week from Wednesday,” said Kay Godfrey, director of public relations for the BSA’s Great Salt Lake Council. “We won’t know until then how it will affect Scouting as we’ve known it.”
