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, called the "Respect State Housing Laws Act", proposes to amend the CARES Act by removing subsection (c) from Section 4024, which pertains to housing-related provisions originally enacted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, the bill aims to eliminate a requirement related to lessors (property owners or landlords) providing notice to vacate. By striking this subsection, the bill appears to be reducing federal restrictions on landlords' ability to manage their properties, potentially allowing them more flexibility in handling evictions or tenant notices according to state and local housing laws. The removal of this provision would likely return more control over housing-related actions to individual states and property owners, undoing a temporary federal protection that was put in place during the public health emergency.
