Third Amendment issues come up every now and then. For example, legislators have tried to force airlines to provide special services for U.S. military at their own expense:

I'm not saying these men and women aren't deserving, but the taxpayers should foot the bill. A private property owner shouldn't be forced to. Fortunaely, these bills never get far.

Interesting. I haven't heard of many examples. Thanks. Seems the issues that do pop up tend to be loosely related to the original wording. It was focused on quartering in homes.

Though it does say "but in a manner to be prescribed by law." Wouldn't that mean that this bill would technically be viable?
