Respect State Housing Laws Act

What this bill does

  • Eliminates the federal requirement for landlords to give tenants 30 days' notice before starting eviction proceedings in federally assisted or backed housing.
  • Affects tenants and landlords in housing programs that receive federal assistance or backing.
  • Takes effect immediately upon enactment, allowing states to set their own eviction notice requirements.

    How would eliminating the federal 30-day notice requirement affect tenants in federally assisted housing who have limited time to find alternative housing?

  2. 02

    What variations in eviction notice periods across states might result, and how could this create uncertainty for tenants who move between states?

  3. 03

    What evidence supports the claim that state-level eviction rules would better serve both landlords and tenants than a uniform federal standard?
