AB 246 (Bryan D) Residential rent: County of Los Angeles.
Current Text: Amended: 4/10/2025
Last Amend: 4/10/2025
Status: 4/10/2025-Read third time and amended. Ordered to third reading. Re-referred to Com. on
JUD. pursuant to Assembly Rule 77.2.
Location: 4/10/2025-A. JUD.
Summary: Current law requires a tenant be served a 3 days’ notice in writing to cure a default or
perform a condition of the lease, or return possession of the property to the landlord, as specified. The
Mobilehome Residency Law prohibits a tenancy from being terminated unless specified conditions are
met, including that the tenant fails to pay rent, utility charges, or reasonable incidental service
charges, and 3 days’ notice in writing is provided to the tenant, as specified. This bill would, until
January 20, 2029, enact the Social Security Tenant Protection Act of 2025 (the Act). The Act would
prohibit a court, during a declared social security benefit payment interruption, from issuing a summons
on a complaint for unlawful detainer in any action that seeks possession of residential real property
and that is based, in whole or in part, on nonpayment of rent or other charges, if the defendant
experiences a loss of income due to the social security benefit payment interruption.
