**Would exempt most Department of Defense unaccompanied and family housing from National Historic Preservation Act review.** It would also ban landlords in privatized military housing from requiring nondisclosure agreements and make that ban retroactive. - Families and unaccompanied service members: would remove NHPA review requirements for qualifying DoD housing units. - Tenants and prospective tenants in privatized military housing: would bar landlords from requiring nondisclosure agreements to lease, continue, or end tenancy.
