Bill overview
This bill amends California law to clarify that establishing policies or preferences in favor of applicants or tenants who receive federal, state, or local housing subsidies does not automatically constitute discrimination based on source of income. It reinforces existing protections against housing discrimination based on factors like race, income, and disability, and clarifies the definition of ‘source of income’ to include government assistance programs. The goal is to ensure fair housing opportunities for individuals utilizing these subsidy programs.
