Status: Died (session ended)
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends law to restrict aliens and foreign entities from certain designated countries (based on national security, terrorism sponsorship, or sanctions) from purchasing or acquiring title to real property, with definitions of control and designated countries, plus receivership provisions for enforcement. This expands state-level restrictions on foreign land ownership linked to immigration enforcement and national security concerns. No other listed topics are substantively addressed.
