Summary of Bill HR 1078
Bill 119 hr 1078, also known as the "CARES Act Amendment Act," aims to make changes to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. Specifically, this bill seeks to remove a requirement that lessors must provide notice to vacate to tenants during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The CARES Act, which was passed in response to the economic impact of the pandemic, included provisions to protect tenants from eviction during this challenging time. However, one of the requirements included in the original legislation was that lessors must provide notice to vacate to tenants before proceeding with eviction proceedings.
This bill, if passed, would eliminate this notice requirement for lessors, allowing them to move forward with eviction proceedings without having to provide advance notice to tenants. The purpose of this amendment is not explicitly stated in the bill, but it may be aimed at streamlining the eviction process for lessors who may be facing financial difficulties themselves during the pandemic. Overall, the CARES Act Amendment Act seeks to make changes to the original CARES Act in order to address the evolving needs of both tenants and lessors during the ongoing COVID-19 crisis. It is important to note that this bill is still in the early stages of the legislative process and may undergo further revisions before potentially becoming law.
