An answer to a policy dispute between landlords and certain tenants came from Frankfurt today as lawmakers awarded final passage to what's called a source of income bill.

Supporters of House Bill 18 deem it a victory for property owners, while critics decry it as discriminatory.

The House gave it final passage today, signing it on to the governor's desk.

House Bill 18 bans local governments from passing ordinances, making landlords accept federal housing assistance, including Section eight vouchers.

Jefferson and Fayette Counties have rules banning source of income discrimination.

What is before us today would still revoke what Louisville Metro and their ordinances have done within their own jurisdictions, something that they felt was right for them.

And as we have this coming back before us, I think that's still deeply concerning, that that is still going to be no longer valid.

Despite that objection, the bill went on to pass on a vote of 75 to 28 and will be sent to the governor for him to sign, veto or let become law without his signature.
