Disparate impact refers to policies and practices that seem neutral or fair but in practice- either intentionally or not - negatively impact people protected under the Fair Housing Act. #DefendCivilRights #FightForHousingJustice

We have a long legacy of racist and discriminatory housing policies and practices that we struggle to reverse. HUD’s proposal would solidify and likely exacerbate these bad practices. #FightingForHousingJustice #DefendCivilRights
Putting people at risk of housing instability and homelessness. #FightingForHousingJustice #DefendCivilRights
