“Fair Housing 50th Commemoration – April 2018”
WHEREAS, April 11, 2018 marks the 50th anniversary of the passage of the Fair Housing Act, which enunciates a
national policy of fair housing for all who live in the United States; and
WHEREAS, the Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial
status and national origin, and fair housing is a positive community good and economic stability, community health,
and human relations in all communities are improved by diversity and integration; and
WHEREAS, Fair Housing is integral to the ethical commitment of members of the National Association of

opportunity are repugnant to a common sense of decency and fairness.
