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.

How about......NO!
Until the evil ones feel our wrath, nothing is going to change and they will continue to take more. I pray everyday for a “happy” news story but God ignores me.
CDC is about to make everything worst
The CDC is not a legislative body. It’s not the Executive
Branch. It is not a court.
It has no business whatsoever addressing this issue.

The Constitution truly is meaningless to deep state trash.
Now your talking.
They can’t put all of us in jail...but, I have little faith that many would risk trouble with the fed.
Sad state of our country.
The most painful realization about what has happened to this country is that we really deserve it...due to lack of resolve and wiliness to suffer any pain or suffering at all in the fight.
Essentially, there is no fight, just empty threats.
And the government keeps the printing presses going at full speed.
I’ve been renting an older (about 100 years old) nice house in a small town for the last 4 years and just a few days ago was talking to the owner.
I asked him if he had any renters that were not paying rent the last year due to this eviction ban - and out of about 20 houses he rents - not ONE tenant has missed even a month of rent since all of this covid stuff started.
I was surprised a little, but glad for him.
I don’t see how the CDC has ANY authority to change a legal contract between anyone.
It was a nice country we used to have. #BananaRepublic
This has all the hallmarks of another DACA situation. Unconstitutional until it’s to difficult to change.
If I’m a landlord, I immediately move to evict any tenant who doesn’t pay rent under cover of this absurd overreach of authority.
Test case.

It was for tattoos.
Do they have the authority for that? I don’t think so. But anymore everybody seems to think they can make the calls.
“Unconstitutional” is now a meaningless term.
Prove me wrong.
They have no such authority.
THANK GOD he left before he found out the bastards were extending this BS longer, I am so sorry for you, I can already see in my mind how trashed the property was this nation is DONE breaks my heart thank God my life is nearly complete and I lived during the time I when America was a PROUD exceptional country!!
Try to imagine the Republicans voting to evict millions of American voters from their apartments a couple months before the 2022 mid-term election.
They aren’t doing the disease control thing. Might as well be the cause of social disease.
