Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would change the federal Fair Housing Act by removing paragraph (4) of Section 807(b), known as the Thurmond amendment. That paragraph says the Act does not prohibit housing actions against a person because they were convicted of illegally making or distributing a controlled substance. With it removed, such actions would be judged under the Act's other rules. The bill would also renumber the remaining paragraph.
