Businesses can't keep low wage employees if they can't find subsidized housing in the area.

Walmart needs it's pool of wage slaves to stay steady.

I knew there had to be a dystopian take on this for Texas, of all states, to step in and prevent descrimination in HoAs.

And you blew it out of the water, thats probably exactly why. Cant have the poors live to far away cause they'd never be able to come into work and be exploited.

If the employees at your grocery store can’t afford to live in the same neighborhood, then you live in a glorified amusement park.

How about just getting rid of mandatory HOAs

That this would be done in the first place is a case of the hilariously evil.

I laughed seeing this on First Thought described as "Texas republicans actually do something... good...? for once"

HOAs suck. I agree with most. But do your due diligence BEFORE purchasing a home in an HOA. If you don't, that's on you and your realtor. Do better.
