JUST IN: In a new letter to Pres. Biden and CDC Dir. Rochelle Walensky, progressive members of Congress are calling for the CDC to 'leverage every authority available to extend the eviction moratorium' set to expire at midnight.

"Everybody knew this was happening," Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, D-N.Y., said after the White House and Democratic Party leaders failed in a last-minute scramble to extend the eviction moratorium.

In a statement Thursday, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Biden would have supported the CDC extending the ban, but"the Supreme Court has made clear that this option is no longer available," and called on Congress to take action. In their letter Saturday, the lawmakers said they will continue to work legislatively to address the expiring moratorium, as well as to get billions in previously approved funding out to help renters and landlords -- a process that has gotten off to a slow start.

The sad thing is everyone is upset because people are afraid to work because of the virus and about the working class collecting an extra 300. How about the millions we hand away to other countries and illegals. The ones collecting the money worked for it the others never did.

Useless

It’s bullshit, from personal knowledge I know there are many people taking full advantage of this and letting landlords carry their burden. Meanwhile there are hiring signs everywhere and no one taking the jobs. Time to wrap up the cares act too

Don’t work still get paid…. The democratic way.

But the FCC sent a letter saying not to do so.

So now we know who’s running the country in place of Biden.

If you got 1200 extra a month in unemployment benefits you should have paid your rent instead of whatever you did with it..if you have ever been homeless, you make sure the first thing you do is pay your rent..even eating you will find out later…4 walls running water..is awesome

Fuck that!

Of course. Nobody realizes 1/2 of those not being evicted just stopped paying rent because they can’t get evicted .

Places around me are cutting hours and closing because nobody will work.
