What the document says

“Each public housing agency or owner of a covered federally assisted rental dwelling unit that installs 1 or more approved temperature sensors under this section shall collect and retain information about temperature-related complaints and temperature-related violations.”

To increase the supply of housing in America, and for other purposes, Sec. 106

The section requires each public housing agency or owner that installs sensors under the section to collect and keep information about temperature-related complaints and violations, and requires the Secretary to define both terms within 180 days of enactment.

What the document actually says

“Each public housing agency or owner of a covered federally assisted rental dwelling unit that installs 1 or more approved temperature sensors under this section shall collect and retain information about temperature-related complaints and temperature-related violations.”

To increase the supply of housing in America, and for other purposes, Sec. 106
That sentence, in plain words

The landlord or housing agency must write down complaints about heat and cold. It must write down breaches of the rules too. It must keep those records.

What this is about

The law does not yet say what counts as a complaint or a breach. The housing agency must define both. It has 180 days to do it.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
