Council Spotlight
Recognizing Fair Housing Month
On April 2, 2024, Council President Andrew Friedson and County Executive Marc Elrich presented a proclamation with the County's Office of Human Rights recognizing April as National Fair Housing Month.
This year marks the 56th anniversary of the federal Fair Housing Law, which was passed in 1968 to eliminate discriminatory housing practices. The national 2024 theme is Fair Housing: The 'ACT' In Action, and the Council reaffirms its commitment to ensuring fair access to housing for all Montgomery County residents.
