12:06The Politics Hour with Kojo and Jonetta

What do you get when you combine big homes, tiny plots and irate neighbors? The answer: Montgomery County's fight over so-called "McMansions." We'll hear about a bill that would limit the size of new homes in the county. Plus, we consider whether single-sex education would improve test scores in D.C. Join us for our weekly review of the politics, policies, and personalities of the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia.
