Pelosi, House Democrats Ask Biden to Extend Eviction Moratorium in Violation of Supreme Court Ruling

House Democratic leaders issued a joint statement calling on the White House to disregard a recent Supreme Court ruling and extend the national eviction moratorium. 

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the other top House Democratic leaders urged President Joe Biden’s administration to extend the eviction moratorium until Oct. 18, 2021 and said doing so is a “moral imperative,” according to the joint statement released Sunday. The moratorium — first introduced by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) last year to prevent landlords from evicting low-income tenants during the pandemic — expired over the weekend after Congress failed to pass legislation extending it.

  1. Pelosi's concerned about evictions? Only because there's millions of Democrat voters who will soon be sleeping under an highway overpass and rethinking their loyalty to the party.

  2. So many restaurants around here closed or close early because they cannot get help. Jims BBq a great place that hasn't been open in weeks due to staff shortage. We need to stop this free shit. People need to get off their dead asses and get back to work.

  3. They only worry about what the supreme court rules when it favors their agenda, otherwise they just pretend it doesn't pertain to them.

  4. There are jobs out there. How many deadbeats spent the rent money on dope, etc? The landlord isn't getting any moratorium on taxes, insurance or upkeep.

  5. I would say defying a Supreme Court order would be an impeachable offense.

  6. (1) The Democrats said science demands the extension. That's what the statement said. Science demands.
    (2) To Pelosi and her kind, "The branches of government are what I say they are."

    1. Science involves demanding serious proof of claims.
      Trusting the science is for flat earth people.

  10. I always wondered how the CDC has the authority to enforce this "moratorium" anyway. THey aren't a ;w making body. Had Congress done it, that would be different....it would be a law. The CDC has no authority in something like this.
