Bill Summary
A BILL To amend the CARES Act to remove a requirement on lessors to provide notice to vacate, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, titled the "Respect State Housing Laws Act", proposes to amend the CARES Act by removing subsection (c) from Section 4024. Specifically, the bill aims to eliminate a requirement related to notices to vacate for lessors (landlords). By striking this subsection, the bill would likely remove federal restrictions on eviction notices that were originally implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic, effectively returning eviction regulations to state-level control. This change would give individual states more autonomy in managing housing and eviction procedures, potentially making it easier for property owners to proceed with evictions according to their local and state laws, without the previous federal constraints established during the pandemic emergency period.
