The resolution recognizes April 2025 as Fair Housing Month in Vermont, highlighting the ongoing issues of housing discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, and disability that have persisted for generations. It commemorates the signing of the Fair Housing Act by President Lyndon Johnson in 1968 and acknowledges Vermont's own Fair Housing Act, which prohibits discrimination in housing based on various factors, making it one of the most comprehensive laws in the nation. The resolution notes the increased inquiries and complaints regarding fair housing in Vermont, particularly in light of recent federal government actions that have deprioritized fair housing enforcement and education.

The resolution emphasizes the importance of inclusive and affordable communities for promoting diversity and economic development, while also addressing the current housing crisis that disproportionately affects individuals in protected classes. It reaffirms Vermont's commitment to ensuring that all residents are entitled to the protections of the Fair Housing Act. The General Assembly directs the Secretary of State to send copies of the resolution to relevant organizations, including the Vermont Human Rights Commission and the Vermont Legal Aid Housing Discrimination Law Project, to further support fair housing initiatives.
