FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — A bill that will undo efforts in Kentucky’s two largest cities to ban landlords from discriminating against renters who use federal housing vouchers has been restored after Republican lawmakers quickly overrode the Democratic governor’s veto. The override votes completed work on the bill Wednesday. The lopsided override votes in the House and Senate came a day after Gov. Andy Beshear vetoed the legislation. It was Beshear’s first veto of this year’s legislative session. But more are expected amid policy clashes between the Democratic governor and the GOP legislative supermajorities.
If you want to buy a house and rent it out to people on assistance nothing is stopping you. You are free to care about the poor
What a shitty libertarian attitude.
I was simply responding to the comment of “let me go back to loving my neighbor”. Nothing is stopping him from loving his neighbor or of renting to someone.
“You are free to care about the poor” is a typical libertarian phrase that implies that it is not the government’s duty to ensure the poor are cared for, which it is.
That person shouldn’t have to even consider renting out a house to people on assistance because there are huge corporations that own hundreds or even thousands of rental properties that should be required to do so by the government. They are free to care about the poor too. They don’t, so they should be forced to.
Very well said, Flying Squid. Thank you.
