This has probably been asked before but I couldn't find it anywhere. Does any of you know if it is illegal to deny a potential tenents application because they participate in a housing assistance program? I've heard that it's illegal for a building if it has more than 6 units. If it's true, please provide a link to the law or document where this info can be found. Thanks.
I found something and it appears that it is illegal to deny a potential tenant due to their source of income. Here's a NYTimes article:
