LA County to forbid discrimination on Section 8 status

Something that LA County landlords should keep in mind, as I see many listings on Zillow, in south LA especially, which explicitly state "no Section 8." Might make sense to talk to a housing attorney about strategies here, but I know in places like NYC, landlords created and stuck by clear income and credit score guidelines, which in most cases tenants on vouchers will not meet. For the record, I think Section 8 can work for some folks, but I don't like the idea of forcing it on landlords, especially given the fact that payments to landlords might be missed due to government shutdown etc.
