Boy Scouts Postpone Gay Policy Decision »

IRVING, Texas — Faced with intense pressure from two flanks, the Boy Scouts of America said Wednesday it needed more time for consultations before deciding whether to move away from its divisive policy of excluding gays as scouts or adult leaders. Possible changes in the policy – such as a proposal to allow sponsors of local troops to decide for themselves on gay membership – will not be voted on until the organization's annual meeting in May, the national executive board said at the conclusion of closed-door deliberations.
