AI Summary
This bill amends the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act to prohibit landlords from discriminating against prospective or current tenants based on their source of income, such as government or private assistance, grants, loan programs, or income from lawful professions. The bill outlines specific actions landlords cannot take, such as refusing to rent, evicting, or making distinctions in the terms and conditions of a rental agreement due to a tenant's source of income. Additionally, the bill requires landlords to consider rental assistance vouchers or subsidies as part of a tenant's income when determining if they meet income criteria. Violations of these provisions are considered unlawful practices, and the Attorney General may investigate and take appropriate enforcement action.
