This bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 363A.09, by adding a new subdivision that prohibits discrimination in housing based on a tenant's source of income. Specifically, it states that landlords cannot discriminate against tenants who utilize federal, state, or local government rental assistance, including housing choice vouchers. The bill outlines that landlords are not allowed to deny tenants or prospective tenants the opportunity to view or apply for rental units based on their use of such assistance.

Additionally, the legislation prohibits landlords from advertising that they will not rent to individuals who use rental assistance or housing choice vouchers. This measure aims to ensure equal access to housing for all individuals, regardless of their financial assistance status, thereby promoting fair housing practices in Minnesota.
