Prohibit landlords from rejecting tenants based on income source

Housing & HomelessnessHousing

In Plain English

Some landlords refuse to rent to people who receive government assistance like Section 8 vouchers or disability benefits. This proposed law makes such discrimination illegal in the city. If approved, landlords must consider all applicants equally regardless of whether their income comes from jobs, benefits, or other legal sources.
