What does the bill do?

The bill changes Section 20 of the Public Housing (Purchase Rights) Law of 1998, and extends its validity by ten additional years. The law allowed tenants living in public housing to buy the apartment at a subsidized price, provided they do not own other high-value properties. The validity of this bill is relevant to public housing tenants who want to complete the purchase process within the extended period.
