The Alameda county board of supervisors in the San Francisco Bay Area voted Tuesday to adopt a Fair Chance housing ordinance, which would prohibit landlords in private and public housing from using criminal records when considering prospective tenants.

That is extra stupid because if you rent to a convict and the person does some crime toward the other tenants, tenants have successfully sued the landlord for letting someone dangerous into the building. 'The landlord should have know better.'

Add an immunity to lawsuits if you want more landlords to rent to convicts.
