Codifies protections in Law Against Discrimination for persons suffering discrimination on grounds of disparate impact.

This bill would amend New Jersey's Law Against Discrimination to explicitly protect people from "disparate impact" discrimination - meaning policies that seem neutral but disproportionately harm individuals in protected groups (such as race, disability, gender identity, or sexual orientation). Currently, courts have interpreted the law to cover this, but the bill would codify that protection directly into statute. It affects anyone facing discrimination in housing, employment, or services due to such policies, making it easier to seek legal remedies. The change clarifies existing protections without altering the scope of covered discrimination.
