I support the proposed rule to establish uniformed standards for determining when a housing practice with a discriminatory effect violates the Fair Housing Act. The current standards provide liability of discriminatory effects but do not require there to be evidence of intentional discrimination. I think it is important to put standards in place that require evidence of discrimination or discriminatory effect. These standards will protect against false claims of discrimination and require proof it being intentional. I think that these uniformed standards will also facilitate fair housing practices from entities who sale, rent or finance housing. I support this proposed rule.
