The legislature enacted the general prohibition against lawful source of income discrimination contained in § 46a-64c only four years after it had first enacted the state program, and only two years after it had made that program permanent. Public Acts 1989, No. 89-288; see also Public Acts 1990, No. 90-246. We are persuaded that, because the legislature had actual knowledge of the federal regulations governing section 8 in both 1985 and 1987, that knowledge informed the legislature’s collective awareness when, in 1989, it adopted a prohibition of discrimination on the basis of “lawful source of income.”
