Landlord groups are suing the Biden administration for extending the pandemic eviction moratorium from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, claiming the new order can only be extended by new legislation, as ruled by the U.S. Supreme Court.
The Alabama and Georgia associations of Realtors filed an emergency motion Wednesday night with Judge Dabney Friedrich of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, asking her to enforce the Supreme Court's recent order stating that the CDC could not extend the moratorium without new legislation.
The Alabama Association of Realtors said the CDC issued the new order "for nakedly political reasons – to ease the political pressure, shift the blame to the courts for ending the moratorium, and use litigation delays to achieve a policy objective."
About half of all housing providers are mom-and-pop operators, and without rental income, they cannot pay their own bills or maintain their properties

Actually, most of them are believers in the bright shining future.
An extension cannot pass the Senate and everyone knows it
I agree, I have a friend with a 20 unit building that needs to evict 15.. some are over a year behind..
none are interested in doing much of anything to pay the back rent. He thinks they all think the government will pay it for them.
Sadly, they are probably right.
This is a delaying tactic to tie it up in the courts (again) for a lengthy period.
Whenever Trump issued an EO, the RATS would find a lefty judge to immediately override it.
You can be sure spineless GOP won’t do a thing.

Why should the courts wade into this? I can conjure many alternative reasons for Kavanaugh and others who wish to defer. Congress signaling an intention to take up legislation, for example - let it proceed rather than muddy the process with a ruling.
Notice that Kavanaugh objects only because there is not a specific grant of authority from Congress to CDC. IOW, Kavanaugh says the moratorium would be fine if Congress issued it.
Biden’s lawless eviction ban deals another blow to rule of law.. under severe pressure from his party’s base, repeatedly denies he has the legal authority to take unilateral action his base wants him to. Eventually, he flip-flops, taking the exact executive action he previously said he had no legal authority to take.
The same thing happened in 2012 when Barack ...
For months, Obama had been telling the press, “With respect to the notion that I can just suspend deportations through executive order, that’s just not the case,” and, “The fact of the matter is there are laws on the books that I have to enforce,” and, “My Cabinet has been working very hard on trying to get it done, but ultimately, I think somebody said the other day, I am president, I am not king.”
But then on June 15, 2012, Obama decided he was king after all, gifting work permits and legal status to millions of illegals..
“He’s a real dick.”
What do you expect from a thoroughly corrupt, demented old pedophile who has been part of the swamp for going on 50 years now?
Easier to lose in court later then to stand up to argry liberals now with Kam waiting in the wings.
That was painfully obvious when SCOTUS ruled Texas and other states HAD NO STANDING to sue other states that violated state laws in conducting their elections. They are in on the communist takeover of America.
Where do "We the People" turn to? Is there any institution left to defend our rights?
Welcome to the third world.
You do not want to be a landlord in the third world.
They should be Screaming for and Demanding SANCTIONS! $10,000 and 60 days for Contempt would be a good start
Based on what supreme court justices said after they allowed the last extension, the landlords will win easily.
in 2027 if it gets to them again.
This is why we're so fk'd. All these young justices went through the leftist Ivy League training camps and came out sentimental modernists and wind up TOOLs. I never could stand Kavanaugh after he blubbered like bitch on national TV.
Look at Gorsuch, reading faggotry where it was never intended. Barrett is a product of Notre Dame, which lost it's Catholic identity decades ago, and is nothing but a leftist goon factory.
These people are NOT going to save us.
“These people are NOT going to save us.”
Truth.
About friggn time!
Stop the illegal transfer of wealth already.
A North Carolina landlord says he is out $24,000 in unpaid rent from tenants, while one renter bought three boats over the course of the eviction moratorium just as the CDC announced a new ban ..
