Fair Housing
An Oregon residential rental property manager with 50 units refuses to rent to a prospective tenant who receives child support payments as their primary income. This likely violates:
ANo law, since child support is a private matter
BOregon's prohibition on source-of-income discrimination✓ Correct
COnly federal fair housing law but not Oregon law
DOnly the Fair Housing Act's familial status protection
Explanation
Oregon prohibits housing discrimination based on source of income. Refusing to rent because a prospective tenant's income comes primarily from child support payments violates Oregon's source-of-income protection.
