State law limits local voucher protections

Ohio does not protect Housing Choice Voucher holders from source-of-income discrimination. HB 430 (2022) preempts local ordinances, so a landlord can legally decline a voucher applicant. Voucher tenants remain a good option for landlords who want guaranteed monthly rent — but the choice remains legal to make either way. The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights (2024) documented widespread SOI discrimination in Cleveland.
