  The FEHA similarly focuses on adverse action, providing that a facially
discriminatory policy is one “that explicitly conditions a housing
opportunity on a protected basis, requires or allows adverse action based
on a protected basis, or directs adverse action to be taken based on a
protected basis.” 2 C.C.R. § 12040(c) (emphases added). And, similar
to the Community House framework, a defendant can avoid liability for
a facially discriminatory policy by showing the policy “[o]bjectively
benefits a protected class” and “is the least restrictive means of achieving
the identified purpose.” Id. § 12042(f).
