From MyNorthwest.com: Washingtonians are protected from discrimination based on factors such as gender, race, religion and sexual orientation and now, Democrats in Olympia want to add illegal immigrants to the list of protected groups. Sen. Doug Ericksen (R-Ferndale) told KIRO Radios Dori Monson that Senate Bill 5165 prohibits discrimination by employers based on citizenship or immigration status. This applies to every realm from employment to housing rental and even to insurance transactions. In other words, if an employer had two equally-qualified candidates to choose from one a citizen and one an illegal immigrant who had been deported several times and the employer hired the citizen, this could be grounds for a lawsuit on the immigrants behalf. Under Washington state law, they would have the right to a cause of action against that employer if they were discriminated against because of their legal status, Ericksen said. Now federal law might come in and have something to say about that, but this is what Washington state law would say. Ericksen welcomes political discourse, but said that the extent to how far to the Left the Democratic legislators have gone is extreme. Now, he said, moderate Democrats are actually in the minority. I dont know how weve gotten quite to this point, but I have never seen a Legislature like the one we currently have, in term of the bills theyre moving and how far Left, socialist theres no other word for it, socialist they have become, he said. Nationally, he said, people find the Green New Deal in Congress to be radical, but really, it just promotes the kind of ideas that have flourished in the Washington state Legislature for years.

I can't help but believe there are federal laws in place that will torpedo new laws like this.
If forced to rent to illegal aliens, I would hand them forms from ICE to fill out.
Perfect.
