Check your polling place here: https://www.votercheck.necvr.ne.gov/VoterViewIn this episode, Dan dives into the 'LNK for Fair Housing' ballot initiative. On May 6, Lincoln voters will decide whether to outlaw source-of-income discrimination in city code. Currently, landlords can legally refuse prospective tenants based on how they plan to pay rent — including Section 8 housing vouchers, Social Security, veterans benefits, disability income, tips or cash wages, and informal employment. Dan speaks with Elizabeth Engman and Kasey Ogle of Collective Impact Lincoln, the group behind the initiative, to break down what’s at stake for voters.To learn more about 'LNK for Fair Housing' visit https://fairhousinglnk.org/Learn more about the Lincoln City 2025 Elections at https://voterguide.flatwaterfreepress.org/Connect with The Dan Parsons Show on Social Media!- X [Formally known as Twitter] (https://x.com/DanParsonsShow2)- Instagram - (https://www.instagram.com/thedanparsonsshow/)- Facebook - (https://www.facebook.com/TheDanParsonsShow/#)- TikTok - (https://www.tiktok.com/@thedanparsonsshow?lang=en)- Bluesky - (https://bsky.app/profile/thedanparsonsshow.bsky.social)Support the show by becoming a ‘Friend of Dan’ on Patreon - (https://www.patreon.com/thedanparsonsshow)Chapters0:00 Welcome to The Dan Parsons Show!1:21 LNK for Fair Housing2:31 Nebraska Appleseed5:33 Road to the Ballot 9:26 Source of Income Discrimination15:36 Impact19:17 Opposition?21:48 Coalition 24:00 Support25:35 Thanks for Watching!
