Three-Step Fair Housing Bill Offered
Senator Mondale and 21 liberals introduced the Fair Housing Act of 1967 as a separate bill. The measure would prohibit housing discrimination by 1969, seek voluntary compliance in 1967, ban blockbusting, and extend civil rights protections in housing, with debate over referral to a friendlier committee. Mondale warned of a potential social disaster if segregation and ghettos persist, noting open housing laws in 17 states and modest progress.
