Federal fair housing law bans owners and managers from discriminating against prospects and residents based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability, and familial status. But most states and many municipalities have fair housing laws that ban owners and managers from discriminating against prospects and residents for other reasons. For example, Illinois bans discrimination based on age, marital status, ancestry, and military status or dishonorable discharge. And Chicago bans discrimination based on sexual orientation, parental status, and source of income.
