What AB 282 does, verified August 25, 2026

This bill aims to clarify the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) by providing that public agencies or similar entities cannot be found to have discriminated against an applicant or tenant based on their source of income. The bill specifically addresses the source of income for federal, state, or local housing subsidy programs. Establishing policies or preferences in favor of applicants or tenants who qualify for or participate in these programs does not constitute discrimination under FEHA.
