Lead Paint Regulation Debate Highlights Renter Bias Concerns
The debate cites Massachusetts and Connecticut laws restricting lead paint rules to units with young children. Critics warn the bill could enable discrimination by property owners while supporters argue many homes built later lack lead paint. Data from Frederick County in 1994 shows 7 percent of tested children exposed to lead, with only 3 percent tested overall.
