Voucher discrimination is illegal here
Detroit's city ordinance (Municipal Code Art. IV Sec. 27-4-1) protects source of income as a form of "public benefit status" — it applies to ALL Detroit landlords regardless of unit count, closing the 1-4 unit exemption in Michigan's April 2025 state law. Enforcement via Detroit Human Rights Department and MDCR.
