This bill will cost the landlord money, as the landlord will have to pay any screening costs of $20, adding additional financial strain on housing providers.

A typical screening cost is at least $60, which includes credit, background, and eviction history checks—all of which are essential to ensure the safety and stability of a rental property and the community around it.
