Adds new protected characteristics to the Fair Housing Act by defining “military status” and “veteran status,” and expands the Act’s definition of “source of income” to explicitly include payments such as housing vouchers, Social Security/SSI benefits, court‑ordered payments, and trust/guardian payments.
