SB 1204 Missouri Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Modifies provisions relating to prohibited discriminatory practices

SB 1204 revises definitions in Missouri's existing anti-discrimination law to clarify terms like "disability," "age," and "familial status." It updates the definition of "disability" to explicitly include people who have successfully completed drug rehabilitation or are participating in such programs, while excluding current illegal substance use. The bill also refines the "age" definition to allow mandatory retirement for certain executives aged 65+ with specific pension benefits. These changes directly affect employers, housing providers, and public accommodations covered under Missouri's human rights law, ensuring clearer application of existing anti-discrimination protections. The bill is currently prefiled and awaiting legislative review.
