Bill banning whites-only housing passes Pennsylvania House by 1 vote [View all]
HARRISBURG, Pa. (WHTM) — A bill banning white-only housing passed the Pennsylvania House on Tuesday, despite not a single Republican supporting the measure.
House Bill 2103 would close a loophole in the state that could let white nationalist groups establish communities under the guise of a private club or member-only organization by blocking such groups from restricting membership by race, color, and national origin to deny equal access to housing, employment, and public accommodations.
The bill also expands anti-discrimination protections for employment, housing, and public accommodations to a person’s sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity or expression.
It passed on the House floor by a 101-100 vote. A single Democrat, Rep. Frank Burns (D-Cambria), joined every Republican in opposing the bill.
