SB57 has passed through second reader! This bill would carve a narrow exemption in two party consent law to allow fair housing testers to record their testing interactions in accordance with the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development's testing recommendations.
39 other states allow one-party recordings for fair housing testing. All of the states that have had large fair housing court settlements have relied on recordings. SB57 will strengthen Maryland’s ability to enforce its fair housing laws. SB57 is on its third and final reader in the Senate TODAY. Take one minute to contact your senator and ask them to vote YES on SB57.
