This photo taken Saturday, Aug. 30, 2014, shows the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs in Austin, Texas. Over the past two years, civil rights advocates have managed to prevent the Supreme Court from deciding an issue after the justices agreed to hear a case by coaxing settlements in a pair of high-profile housing discrimination cases weeks before the court was set to hear oral arguments. Those last-minute settlements may have pushed the issue down the road but the court could decide as early as this month whether to take up another disparate impact case, in which Texas officials are accused of racial bias for steering low-income housing into mostly black neighborhoods.

FILE - This June 19, 2014, file photo, shows a home for sale in Wilmington, N.C. Real estate data provider CoreLogic reports on U.S. home prices in July. In June, prices rose by the smallest year-over-year amount in 20 months, slowed by modest sales and more properties coming on the market. The slowing increases should make homes more affordable after prices had risen sharply last year. At the same time, Americans' pay hasn't risen nearly as fast.
