Proposal Number: PRN 2010-279
Proposal
Summary:
The proposal would readopt the Division
on Civil Rights’ rules pertaining
to Advertisement Relating to Real Property,
with certain amendments. The rules proposed
for readoption set forth the prohibitions
against advertisements by housing providers
that express discriminatory preferences
for prospective tenants or purchasers based
on certain protected characteristics, such
as race, national origin or creed. Upon
readoption, the Division proposes amendments
to clarify that the rules govern advertisements
in both print and electronic form, and to
include civil union status and gender identity
or expression as protected characteristics
to conform the rules to recent amendments
to the Law Against Discrimination. The proposed
readoption with amendments appears in the
November 15, 2010 edition of the New Jersey
Register.
Summary
of Proposal:
A summary of the proposed readoption with
amendments is posted on the New Jersey Division
on Civil Rights Web site at: www.nj.gov/oag/dcr/proposed_rules.html.
Public
Comment:
Public comment on these proposed rules will
