The Fair Future Act is a straightforward bill that repeals a provision of federal housing law known as the Thurmond amendment. Specifically, it removes paragraph four from Section 807(b) of the Fair Housing Act, which currently exempts certain housing from fair housing protections. The bill affects housing providers and potentially expands fair housing protections for renters and buyers. There is no specific funding or timeline mentioned in the legislation. By eliminating this exemption, the bill aims to ensure broader compliance with fair housing laws and reduce discrimination in housing markets.
