Plain-English Summary

The legislation would require short-term rental platforms like Airbnb and Vrbo to clearly disclose important information to renters, such as total fees, taxes, and cancellation policies before they book a property. This transparency measure aims to help travelers make informed decisions and prevent hidden charges from appearing only after they've committed to a reservation. The bill would affect vacation rental companies and the millions of Americans who book short-term accommodations each year.
