Background and Discussion:
On April 14, 1968, the national Fair Housing Act was enacted to protect people from discrimination when they are renting or buying a home, getting a mortgage, seeking housing assistance, or engaging in other housing-related activities. The Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in housing on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, and familial status. Annually, Harris County Commissioners Court puts forth a resolution to honor National Fair Housing Month.
