Assembly Change Delays Open Housing Debate
Wisconsin Senate altered an Assembly approved open housing bill likely triggering a second round of debate. The measure would ban discrimination in sale rental and financing of housing with owner occupied four units or less exempted impacting about 35 percent of Wisconsin homes. Kendziorski challenged the bill saying it could force minority groups to legislate neighbors out of homes cities and jobs. The chamber voted 24 to 6 to begin action after hours of talks and the Senate action could push recess. The Assembly also moved to abolish the century old debt limit and urged a constitutional amendment allowing direct state borrowing.
