It's a messed up situation. The ADA requirements around inquiring about service animals have the good intention of preventing endless harassment, but they're too sloppy and subject to abuse. A targeted fix would solve the problem. But because many congresspeople would rather repeal the ADA in its entirety, it won't get patched.

Why can't we just enforce a fine for fraud? Say $2,000 + having to vacate your apartment in 48 hours. With the money going to the landlord or service provider who calls them out.

  Probably no way this could possibly be abused.

    That was my thought too, this would likely also get abused. Lets say a Landlord didn't like you, or wanted to move someone else in that would pay for more rent than you.... for example.

      You can't get kicked out or fined if you didn't lie. This would be no different than paying police to fine those who park in handicap spots illegally.

        Who is responsible for investigating? What constitutes proof? This might open loopholes on the weakest link, the tenant.
