Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The Fair Housing Act of 1968 is a federal law in the United States that prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of housing based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, and disability. The law also prohibits discriminatory advertising, blockbusting, and steering practices. It was passed as a part of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 and is enforced by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and through private lawsuits.
