Nancy Pelosi and the House Dems called on the Biden admin to immediately, again extend the nation’s eviction moratorium, calling it a \u201cmoral imperative\u201d to prevent Americans from being put out of their homes during a COVID-19 “surge.”<\/p>\n
SCOTUS voted 5-4 in June to allow the broad eviction ban to continue through the end of July. One of the Justices in the majority, Justice Kavanaugh, made clear he would block any additional extensions unless there was \u201cclear and specific congressional authorization.\u201d<\/p>\n
Democratic leaders pushed to draft a bill, but in the end, too many lawmakers had questions and concerns, and they could not muster the votes to extend the ban.<\/p>\n
“The Squad” howled.<\/p>\n
‘Squad’ Dems still protesting eviction moratorium inaction from party leaders outside Capitol<\/em><\/p>\n By Tyler Olson<\/strong><\/p>\n President Biden and the White House as of Monday morning didn’t respond to a statement from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her leadership team calling on the executive branch to extend the federal eviction moratorium, as “Squad” Democrats continued to camp on the Capitol steps in protest of the inaction from their party. <\/p>\n “Action is needed, and it must come from the Administration. That is why House leadership is calling on the Administration to immediately extend the moratorium,” Pelosi, D-Calif., and her leadership team said in a Sunday morning statement hours after the moratorium ended. “As the CDC doubles down on mask-wearing and vaccination efforts, science and reason demand that they must also extend the moratorium in light of the delta variant.”<\/p>\n The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) early in the coronavirus pandemic implemented an eviction moratorium that banned landlords from removing people who were behind on their rent. It was extended multiple times but finally ended Saturday night following a June opinion from Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh saying Congress \u2013 not the president — would have to extend the moratorium if it were to continue. <\/p>\n Consistent with that, the White House asked Congress to pass legislation continuing the ban on landlords evicting tenants who fail to pay their rent.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Time for the FSA to pay their rent. The circular firing squad among Congressional Dems and the White House is just an entertaining bonus.<\/p>\n Fox News<\/a><\/p>\n TANSTAAFL.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
