Short-term rental listings would show if property owners are child sex offenders.
This bill would make websites and apps for short-term rentals ask property owners if they are child sex offenders. If an owner says yes, their rental listing would clearly show this to people looking to rent. This would give guests more information before they book a place to stay.
Today, websites for short-term rentals do not have to ask property owners if they are child sex offenders, and owners do not have to share this. If this bill passes, these websites would need to ask. If an owner is a child sex offender and tells the website, their rental listing would clearly show this to people looking to rent. These changes would start one year after the bill becomes law.
