Tenant Payment Plan Phasing Continuation Congressional Review Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2024
This resolution declares an emergency to keep existing rules requiring landlords to honor rent payment plans for eligible tenants in effect. It bridges a legal gap that would occur when a previous temporary law expires on October 16, 2024, before a new permanent law takes effect on December 7, 2024. By allowing the current regulations to continue without interruption, the measure ensures that tenants can maintain their agreed-upon payment schedules while Congress reviews the legislation.
