Bill Summary
Permanently Protecting Tenants at Foreclosure Act of 2015 This bill amends the Protecting Tenants at Foreclosure Act of 2009 to repeal its sunset date December 31, 2014 (thus making the Act permanent). This bill restores and revives such Act, the provisions of law amended or repealed by it, and any regulations promulgated pursuant to it, as were in effect on December 31, 2014, as if the sunset had not taken effect.
AI Summary
This bill, titled the Permanently Protecting Tenants at Foreclosure Act of 2015, aims to make the protections offered to tenants when their rental property is foreclosed upon permanent by removing the expiration date that was set for December 31, 2014. Essentially, it revives and restores the original Protecting Tenants at Foreclosure Act of 2009, along with any related laws and regulations that were in effect just before that expiration date, as if the law had never been scheduled to end. This means tenants will continue to have rights, such as receiving proper notice before having to move out, even after a foreclosure, without a time limit.
