HUD recently announced that it has charged housing providers in Montana with violating federal fair housing law by refusing to rent to and making discriminatory statements about a family with children.
The Fair Housing Act (FHA) makes it unlawful to discriminate against families with children under the age of 18. Housing may exclude children only if it meets the FHA’s exemption for housing for older persons. It’s also unlawful to make statements indicating a preference, limitation, or discrimination because of familial status.
