The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6507, seeks to amend section 3-129g of the general statutes to grant the Attorney General the authority to initiate legal actions in response to alleged discriminatory housing practices. This change aims to enhance the enforcement of housing discrimination laws and provide a mechanism for addressing grievances related to discriminatory practices in housing.
The bill does not specify any deletions from the current law but focuses on the insertion of new legal language that explicitly allows the Attorney General to take legal action against discriminatory housing practices. This legislative move is intended to strengthen the state's commitment to combating discrimination in housing and ensuring fair treatment for all individuals seeking housing opportunities.
