The New Jersey Law Against Discrimination prohibits discrimination against prospective tenants in rental transactions for all of the following EXCEPT:

  1. Gender

  2. Race

  3. Sexual orientation

  4. Criminal history

The correct answer is: Criminal history

The New Jersey Law Against Discrimination is designed to protect individuals from discrimination in various housing and rental transactions. Under this law, discrimination based on gender, race, and sexual orientation is explicitly prohibited. These protected categories are foundational in promoting fair housing practices and ensuring that all individuals have equal access to rental opportunities regardless of their identity characteristics. Criminal history, on the other hand, is not explicitly covered by the same protections in the context of discrimination under this act. While many advocacy groups push for broader protections that consider the challenges faced by individuals with criminal records, current New Jersey laws primarily focus on other personal characteristics. Therefore, discrimination based on criminal history does not fall under the same prohibited categories defined by the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination in rental transactions.
