What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, no city, village, town, or county may enact or enforce an

ordinance that imposes a moratorium on a landlord from pursuing an eviction action

against a tenant of the landlord's residential or commercial property.

This bill repeals that provision.
