Bill overview
The Fair Housing for Survivors Act of 2023 aims to protect survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and sex trafficking under the Fair Housing Act. It clarifies that survivors are considered a protected class, preventing discrimination in housing based on their status as victims of these crimes. The bill also strengthens existing protections by explicitly including these experiences as grounds for discrimination and outlines measures to support survivors in accessing safe and affordable housing. It seeks to address systemic barriers that prevent survivors from securing housing and perpetuates their vulnerability.
