As introduced in the Preservation, Enhancement, and Transition of Rental Assistance Act (PETRA) or Rental Housing Revitalization Act (H.R. 6468) to the House of Representatives in 2010 (which died in committee), all public housing residents could receive portable rental vouchers and people who were not low-income could live in public housing developments at market rents in order to preserve current housing, allow the private market to invest in housing, simplify rental assistance programs, and create mixed income communities.
