Voluntary Agreement Moratorium Emergency Amendment Act of 2024

This bill extends a pause on voluntary rental agreements in the District of Columbia until January 1, 2025. It directly affects landlords and tenants by preventing the use of these specific contracts, which allow landlords to raise rents and evict tenants without the usual protections. The law achieves this by amending the existing Rental Housing Act to update the expiration date of the current moratorium. Because it is an emergency measure, the bill will only remain in effect for up to 90 days after approval.
