AN ACT relating to termination of residential leases.

Summary

The bill lets tenants who face serious health emergencies, the death of a spouse or co‑tenant, or unaddressed lead hazards terminate their residential lease early. It limits the tenant’s financial responsibility to prorated rent and protects them from negative credit or landlord references. Landlords are shielded from civil liability if they act in good faith under the new rules.
