To give you a concise answer, USA Federal law only prohibits discrimination based on the following characteristics:
Race.
Color.
Religion or creed.
National origin or ancestry.
Sex.
Age.
Physical or mental disability.
Veteran status.
Genetic information.
Citizenship.
Anything else you can think of is a legal reason to discriminate
