FOX 26 investigated after tenants at a North Houston apartment complex reached out to us with their concerns after returning home to find flyers on their doors.
"She’s a day late and a dollar short," said Joshua Weilbacher, a tenant at the complex.
After making numerous calls, it is indeed illegal under the Fair Housing Act. Federal law prohibits landlords from mandating COVID-19 testing it states: "Asking for information about the nature of a communicable disease, like COVID-19, or asking for evidence about exposure or test results before allowing a prospective tenant to reside on the premises, will generally violate the Act.""I have no problem taking the test, but I was very passionate about it, because I’m not a sheep, and I’m not just going to lay down," said Weilbacher.
FOX 26 spoke with the landlord over the phone Friday, she tells us it was a mistake, and they will not be requiring the test. And it will be optional come Saturday. "If it was a mistake, I’ll chalk it up to that," said Weilbacher. "Thank y'all for your help. I do appreciate it."
