Manassas Changes Definition Of Family
A new town law limits households to immediate relatives. Your nephew cannot live with you.
Seems to be an anti-immigrant (let's say even anti-illegal-immigrant) measure. I will go on record as being against this law. You don't want illegal immigrants living on your block? Arrest them for being in the country illegally. Having trouble finding a parking space because 13 people live across the street from you, each with his own car? Arrange for permit parking and limit the number of permits a house can have. Don't want excessive renters in the neighborhood? Pass a zoning law and enforce it.
I haven't reviewed the good ol' constitution, but I don't see how the government can limit who lives in your house, 'slong as they're all law-abiding.

Actually, this kind of law has been tried before and has already been ruled upon by the Supremes. As I recall, it was found unconstitutional. I will try remember to look it up and post the results.
