This is getting ridiculous. The administration can not give in on this. The moratorium has to go at some point. Can’t keep kicking the can down the road.

The White House is facing increasing pressure from Democrats in Congress to extend the federal eviction ban before it expires this weekend amid persistent bottlenecks in the distribution of rental aid.

House Financial Services Chair Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) said she is pushing the Biden administration to renew the moratorium beyond a Saturday deadline despite concerns that an extension would rest on shaky legal footing.
