"The House and House leadership had the opportunity to vote to extend the moratorium, and there was frankly a handful of conservative Democrats in the House who threatened to get on planes rather than hold this vote," she said on CNN "State of the Union."

The eviction moratorium was a vexing problem for mortgage holders and landlords, who saw NO income from those properties, and were left holding the bag, as no compensation was was ever offered to offset their diminished cash flow.
At least Section 8 provides some compensation, even though the property often ends up being a wrecked shell after several Section 8 tenants.

Democrats control the WH, House and Senate. They can’t blame the Republicans for anything.

"We have to really just call a spade a spade."
If she were a Republican, she might have gotten in trouble for that statement.

A conservative Democrat just wants to steal from white people and Asians.
A moderate Democrat wants to line them up and shoot them.

The “moratorium” is illegal, wrong and unconstitutional. It constitutes indentured servitude: forcing owners to provide an apartment, heat, hot water, parking, insurance and maintenance without compensation. Any law or EO that orders it is invalid. Enforcement is illegal. Those who made these laws broke the law.

We have to really just call a spade a spade. Just try to imagine the firestorm that would unleash if said by a Republican.
