In Missouri, your ESA housing rights rest first on state law. The Missouri Human Rights Act, RSMo § 213.040, makes it an unlawful housing practice to refuse reasonable accommodations in rules, policies, practices, or services when the accommodation may be necessary to give a person with a disability equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling. This state protection is enforced by the Missouri Commission on Human Rights and remains fully active. The federal Fair Housing Act (42 U.S.C. § 3604) provides the same obligation, and that statute has not changed.
