HB 1529:
Concerning the disclosure of certain information when screening tenants.
Prime Sponsor: Representative Stanford
Co-Sponsors: Representatives Jinkins, McCoy, Riccelli, Fitzgibbon, Reykdal, Pollet, Orwall, Roberts
Status Summary: The bill has been scheduled for an executive session in the House Committee on Judiciary for Thursday, Feburary 21 at 1:30pm (subject to change). This is critical because the first cut-off of the session is Friday, February 22. If policy bills don’t get voted out their committee by the 22nd then they'll be dead for the session. That's why it's absolutely critical for you to tell your House representatives to pass HB 1529 to ensure fair and accurate tenant screening reports. Please take action!
