Catholic University Law Review
This Note will examine briefly the background and purpose of both the McCarran-Ferguson Act and the Fair Housing Act. It will then analyze the only case in which insurance redlining was found to violate the Fair Housing Act, Dunn v. Midwestern Indemnity. 29 The court's reasoning, use of legislative history, and method of statutory construction in Mackey will be examined and contrasted with Dunn. An assessment of the impact of Mackey will conclude the article.
