Summary

The legislation stops New Jersey landlords from terminating, refusing to renew, or denying a lease to tenants or applicants who are victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking, as long as they provide approved proof. It also lets victims sue landlords for damages if the rule is broken. The bill updates existing landlord‑tenant laws to include these protections.
