Summary

Safe Public Housing Act - Amends the United States Housing Act of 1937 to: (1) prohibit a resident of a covered public housing development that has decided by referendum to prohibit firearms from possessing such a weapon; and (2) require a resident to register any firearm with the public housing agency (PHA) if the public housing development has so required by referendum. Sets forth referendum and related provisions. Provides for expedited termination of tenancy for firearms violations. Amends criminal law to prohibit firearms possession in a covered housing development by a nonresident (with exceptions for law enforcement and other authorized persons). Amends the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988 to make PHA firearms limitation activities eligible for drug elimination grants.
