(1) That neither the Direct Guarantee Lender, nor anyone authorized to act for the Direct Guarantee Lender, will refuse to sell, after the making of a bona fide offer, or refuse to negotiate for the sale otherwise make unavailable or deny the property covered by the Section 184 Guaranteed Loan to any eligible purchaser or discriminate in making a loan or engaging in a residential real estate-related transaction (as defined in 42 U.S.C. 3605) because of age, race, color, religion, sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation), disability, familial status, or national origin, source of income of the Borrower, location of the property, or because the Borrower exercised any right under the Consumer Credit Protection Act, except as provided by law.

(2) That any restrictive covenant, other than permissible restrictions on Trust Land, on such property relating to race, color, religion, sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation), disability, familial status, or national origin is hereby illegal, unenforceable, or void.

(b) That civil action for preventative relief may be brought by the Attorney General in any appropriate U.S. District Court against any person responsible for a violation of this certification.
