Plain-English Summary

This bill makes it illegal to discriminate in housing in Maine based on a person's military status, veteran status, or how they get their income. It defines "source of income" broadly to include things like housing vouchers, Social Security benefits, child support, and other lawful funds. If passed, landlords and real estate agents could not deny housing, set different terms, or make inquiries based on these new protected categories.
