21. Nothing in this section shall prohibit the offer and acceptance of
a discount for housing accommodations to a person with a disability, as
defined in subdivision twenty-one of section two hundred ninety-two of
this article.

22. (a) It shall be an unlawful discriminatory practice for an
employer or licensing agency, because of any individual's status as a
victim of domestic violence, to refuse to hire or employ or license or
to bar or to discharge from employment such individual or to
discriminate against such individual in compensation or in terms,
conditions or privileges of employment.

(b) It shall be an unlawful discriminatory practice for an employer or
employment agency to print or circulate or cause to be printed or
circulated any statement, advertisement or publication, or to use any
form of application for employment or to make any inquiry in connection
with prospective employment which expresses, directly or indirectly, any
limitation, specification or discrimination as to status as a victim of
domestic violence, or any intent to make any such limitation,
specification or discrimination; provided, however, that no provision of
this subdivision shall be construed to prohibit the employer from making
any inquiry or obtaining information for the purpose of providing
assistance to, or a reasonable accommodation in accordance with the
provisions of this subdivision to, a victim of domestic violence.
