Why Sexual orientation, gender identity, and marital status Is Correct

Answer B: Sexual orientation, gender identity, and marital status

Colorado's Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act (CADA) adds several protected classes not explicitly listed in the federal Fair Housing Act, including sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, and source of income (in some contexts). In Colorado, fair housing protections are enforced by the Colorado Civil Rights Division (CCRD) under the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act and Colorado Fair Housing Act.

Exam Tip: Fair Housing

Fair Housing questions test both federal (Fair Housing Act of 1968) and state-level protected classes. The federal protected classes are race, color, religion, national origin, sex, familial status, and disability. Many states add additional protections.
