Answer 2

The Fair Housing Law of 1989 amends the Fair Housing Act of 1968, which banned discrimination in housing based on race, color, religion, or national origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Fair Housing Law of 1989 amends the Fair Housing Act of 1968 (also known as the Civil Rights Act of 1968).

The Fair Housing Act of 1968 banned discrimination in the sale or rental of housing based on race, color, religion, or national origin. The Fair Housing Law of 1989 further expanded the protection against discrimination in housing by adding additional characteristics, such as gender, age, and disability.
