New Eviction Moratorium Faces Legal Challenge

The video discusses the legal challenges faced by the CDC's new eviction ban, which affects 90% of U.S. renters. President Biden allowed the previous moratorium to expire, acknowledging potential legal issues with extending it. Despite this, he implemented a new temporary ban to provide relief for renters, emphasizing the need for legislative action for a long-term solution. The Supreme Court previously allowed the moratorium to continue until July, with further extensions requiring Congressional approval. Although Congress has allocated $47 billion for housing aid, much of it has yet to reach those in need.
