A tenant already lawfully living in a covered section 8 housing unit can't be evicted just because the owner reserved units for disabled families or created preferences under this subchapter.
Except for the unit-reservation rule in section 13612 or any preference created under this subchapter, a tenant who is already lawfully living in a unit at a covered section 8 housing* project* may not be evicted, or forced to move out, because of that reservation, those preferences, or any action HUD's Secretary* or the project owner* takes under this subchapter.
Any tenant who, except for reservation of a percentage of the units of a project* pursuant to section 13612 of this title or any preference for occupancy established pursuant to this subchapter, is lawfully residing in a dwelling unit in a covered section 8 housing project, may not be evicted or otherwise required to vacate such unit because of the reservation or preferences or because of any action taken by the Secretary* of Housing and Urban Development or the owner* of the project pursuant to this subchapter.
