- description: "Today, the Boy Scouts of America announced that the National Executive Committee unanimously approved a resolution allowing gay adults to serve as employees and volunteers. A vote by the National Executive Board, the Boy Scouts’ governing body, is set for July 27th. Based on the BSA’s documents, the change would: - Eliminate the BSA’s across the board ban on openly gay or bisexual adults in scouting. - Allow each individual troop or unit to determine its own policy regarding the eligibility of openly gay or bisexual scoutmasters or other adult leaders. - Prohibit regional governing councils or non-Troop entities such as boy scouts camps from discriminating against employees and volunteers based on their sexual orientation. - Allow previously removed leaders to reapply for their positions. If ratified on Monday, July 27, the change will be effective immediately.” * Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian (The Point) discuss on The Young Turks.
