Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would exempt Defense Department facilities that have been used as military family housing or unaccompanied (barracks-style) housing from the National Historic Preservation Act. The Secretary of Defense could exclude some housing units from this exemption, but the excluded units could not exceed one-tenth of one percent of all such units. Facilities listed on the National Register of Historic Places as of January 20, 2025, could not be excluded from the exemption. The bill would also bar landlords of privatized military housing from asking tenants to sign nondisclosure agreements related to leases or housing services, except in litigation settlements, and this rule would apply to past agreements too.
