CDC issues new eviction ban for most of U.S. through Oct. 3

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Tuesday issued a new moratorium on evictions that would last until October 3, ending some of the political pressure being placed on President Joe Biden.

The new moratorium could help keep millions in their homes as the coronavirus’ delta variant has spread and states have been slow to release federal rental aid. It would temporarily halt evictions in counties with “substantial and high levels” of virus transmissions and would cover areas where 90 percent of the U.S. population lives.

The announcement was something of a reversal for the Biden administration after saying that a Supreme Court ruling prevented a moratorium. But the choice to impose a new measure in the face of legal uncertainty was also a win for the progressive lawmakers who pushed the White House to do more to prevent some 3.6 million Americans from losing their homes during the COVID-19 crisis.

Biden stopped short Tuesday afternoon of announcing the new ban on evictions during a press conference at the White House, ceding the responsibility to the CDC.

“My hope is it’s going to be a new moratorium,” Biden told reporters.

The CDC has become an effing train-wreck.

Paging Justice Kavanaugh, Paging Justice Kavanaugh, your 'excuse' for your June vote just evaporated! Now what will you excuse? FYI: Chief Justice Roberts also voted to keep the CDC cna against evictions in place!

On his concurrent opinion (5-4 against the the Alabama Association of Realtors [30June 2021]), he wrote “the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention exceeded its existing statutory authority by issuing a nationwide eviction moratorium,” and “clear and specific congressional authorization (via new legislation) would be necessary for the CDC to extend the moratorium past July 31.”

IS THE SUPREME COURT READY TO IMMEDIATELY ISSUE AN INJUNCTION?

If not… THEY ARE COMPLICIT!

Rent and rental moratoriums are not a “public health” issue and the CDC has zero legal authority to issue them.

Obviously un Constitutional.

Florida just won and proved a similar case with the Cruise industry.

How does the CDC have this kind of authority — to extend a ban on rental evictions?

That’s what I want to know. How do they have the authority to legislate anything - especially when it comes to spending our money?

There are too many crooks/mobsters with their filthy hands in the till as it is.

Get back to me when they have a moratorium on Property Tax payments too.

Not that these unelected bastards have any more constitutional authority to control taxes any more than they have to control contracts between property owners and renters.

Let’s take this to its logical conclusion. If the govt can stop people from being evicted due to Covid then let’s all stop paying our taxes since if the govt would allow and force landlords to forgo rent payments and NOTHING happen to the renters then we should be allowed to not pay our taxes (rent) and the govt (landlords) couldn’t do anything to us

I see what you did there, but it’s actually a good point.

If the CDC decreed landlords must buy their tenants pet 🦒 giraffes (or eat a bug), it would be just as legal/constitutional.

Unreal.

I suspect that a conservative district court will issue a nationwide emergency injunction fairly quickly given the likelihood of success on the merits. Then it will get appealed up to SCOTUS. It will probably take a couple of weeks though.

That’s what Xiden was counting on here. He flat out said that he knows it is unconstitutional, that everyone told him it was not going to pass legal muster, but he did it anyway.

If Trump had done this, the media would be braying 24/7 about how lawless he was.

The fact that the media is cheering this should be thrown in their faces.

It’s not like they are thinking all these people will get jobs and be able to pay back rent come Oct 3 as the economy will be doing so well.

They think the economy will be doing very poorly, probably a stock market crash the week before, and some variant hysteria going on.

And they’ll say we can’t do evictions now, with all this going on, before the holidays . . . .

Look, we are in this situation with the eviction ban, what is the best way out of it?

If a huge percentage of landlords file for eviction all at once, it's probably not great for them either. There is going to be rent deflation, right?

I'd like to hear what Thomas Sowell says, or what Walter Williams would say.
