Summary

The bill requires Kansas landlords to accept either full or partial rent payments and to consider any lawful source of income when evaluating a tenant’s eligibility. Refusing partial payments or ignoring certain income sources would be deemed a deceptive or unconscionable act under the state consumer protection law. Violations would be enforceable through existing consumer‑protection remedies.
