Voucher discrimination is illegal here

Michigan Public Act 195 of 2024 (effective April 2, 2025) prohibits housing discrimination based on lawful source of income statewide — but the state law only applies to landlords who own 5 or more rental units. Small landlords (1-4 units) remain exempt under state law; local ordinances may still apply.
