Fair Housing Improvement Act of 2023

The Fair Housing Improvement Act of 2023 amends the Fair Housing Act to prohibit housing discrimination based on source of income, veteran status, or military status. It defines "source of income" broadly to include housing vouchers, Social Security benefits, child support, and other lawful income sources like savings or gifts. This change directly affects renters using these income types and requires landlords to avoid discrimination. The bill also updates multiple sections of the Fair Housing Act to include these protections and extends the certification period for housing agencies by 40 months.
