Landlord and Tenant - Discrimination in Housing for Income-Based Housing Subsidies and Positive Rental History Reporting

Summary

If enacted, this bill would prohibit landlords from refusing to rent to tenants using income-based housing subsidies, with a limited exception, and would require landlords to offer tenants the option of having positive rental payment history reported to consumer reporting agencies. It would establish violations as discriminatory housing practices enforceable by the Maryland Commission on Civil Rights.
