Can a landlord refuse Section 8 in Oregon?
No. Oregon law prohibits landlords from refusing a renter because they pay with a Section 8 voucher. That protection applies in Oregon. If you were turned away for having a voucher, that refusal may be illegal.
Oregon bans SOI discrimination statewide. Landlords cannot refuse Section 8 or SSI applicants.
Informational only, not legal advice. Laws change, so verify current status before acting on a rejection or making a leasing decision.
