Millions behind on rent now face new eviction fears without moratorium extension

......

The nationwide moratorium on evictions is coming to an end on Saturday. The moratorium was put in place last September by the CDC to protect Americans who had fallen behind on their rent during the pandemic. And despite an emergency appeal from real estate associations, landlords, and other groups that argued the CDC exceeded its authority by imposing the moratorium, the Supreme Court allowed the eviction freeze until the end of July.

And if Congress doesn't act, renters from coast to coast are at risk of losing their homes and the COVID pandemic will be supercharged, particularly in unvaccinated communities. That's because research tells us that if someone is evicted, they are most likely to move in with friends or family or into a shelter. That only increases community spread and leads to more infections, and sadly, in some cases, more deaths caused by the pandemic.
