CDC issues new eviction moratorium after days of pressure
01:05

Facing mounting pressure from progressive Democratic lawmakers and the spike of the COVID-19 pandemic, U.S. President Joe Biden's administration issued a new 60-day eviction moratorium to prevent millions of American renters from being forced to leave their homes. The original ban was put in place in September last year in an effort to keep people in their homes. It was extended multiple times, but the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) made clear in June that a court order prohibited them from extending it beyond July 31.
