WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention extended a federal moratorium on evictions affecting 90 percent of the country for 60 days, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said on Tuesday.

"I applaud the CDC for imposing an eviction moratorium for the vast majority of the population," the Democratic leader said in a statement. "For anyone to lose their home through no fault of their own is devastating, and it's shameful that Republicans in Congress aren’t lifting a finger to help prevent it from happening."

America the ugly.low class politicians bullying each other to steal from the American people.
Great ideal. Extend it 60 days so it's closer to winter in parts of the Country then they'll have to extend it even farther.
Anything the gov't puts out as temporary, becomes permanent. Taxes, social security, inflation, moratorium, etc.
what's wrong with getting a job
The supreme cpurt already ruled the cdc cant do this
I was thinking the same thing???
They worded it differently, so it's "legal". The govt is eroding any trust that was left in the system.
its shameful you knew about the deadline for over a month and didnt do anything either.
