I think it's hard to explain to non-lawyers in a way that is at once clear and complete.
FSF states that the act would make patents "more easily claimed and enforceable." If you'd rather hear it from lawyers: "A considerable majority of the Act is directed to changing the rules and standards for inter partes review (IPR) and post-grant review (PGR) proceedings."[1] I understand this to mean that it will make it harder to challenge the validity of issued patents, as well as easing the application requirements.
If you want a real answer, try reading the linked article, and then maybe you can explain it to me :)
