Preemption of Real Property Discrimination Act

YourVoice.Now Summary

Several states have passed or are considering laws that ban or restrict foreign citizens from buying real estate within their borders. This bill would override all of those state laws, making them unenforceable. The Attorney General would have the power to enforce the federal preemption, and anyone harmed by a state trying to enforce a banned restriction could sue in federal court for injunctive relief. The bill is aimed at preventing discrimination in property sales based on a buyer's citizenship status.

Congressional Summary

Preemption of Real Property Discrimination Act This bill preempts any state law that prohibits or restricts the purchase of real property by an individual based on the individual's citizenship.
