Concerns housing discrimination based on source of lawful income.*

S 3759 amends New Jersey's Law Against Discrimination to explicitly prohibit discrimination based on "source of lawful income" in housing and employment. The bill defines "source of lawful income" to include housing assistance vouchers (like Section 8), disability benefits, veterans' benefits, child support, and other legal income sources. It clarifies that this prohibition applies specifically to income used for rental or mortgage payments, making existing protections more consistent throughout the law. The bill also increases the retirement benefit threshold from $27,000 to $44,000 and makes certain language gender-neutral.
