On July 30th local time, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Nancy Pelosi) called on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to unilaterally extend the ban on eviction of tenants in order to protect the rights and interests of tenants.
Pelosi said at a news conference on the same day that the ban will end on the 31st of this month and that the extension is a "top priority" and that the US government should take action as soon as possible. She believes that the CDC has the right to extend the suspension on its own.
The White House also appealed to Congress on the 29th of this month for a further extension of the ban on eviction of tenants. At a time when Delta mutants are rampant, some Americans who have not been vaccinated are at risk of living on the streets, the White House said in a statement. The statement said that US President Joe Biden supported the CDC's decision to extend the ban on the eviction of tenants, but because the Supreme Court had previously ruled that the CDC did not have the power to issue such a ban, it could be extended again only if Congress intervened.
