"Now it's the first of the month and rent — and back rent — is suddenly due for millions of Americans who have been shielded from eviction during the pandemic."
"Millions of households could face eviction over the next month — when lawmakers on are on their annual August recess — and some have predicted a full-blown eviction crisis, just as a surge in Covid cases from the highly contagious Delta variant may be prompting renewed calls for people to stay home and keep their distance. 'We only learned of this yesterday,' House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told reporters Friday evening after the House tried and failed to pass legislation that would extend the federal eviction moratorium. 'There was not enough time to socialize it within our caucus as well as to build a consensus necessary,' she said, with a promise from her top lieutenant to revisit the issue ASAP. ... Pelosi was likely referring to the fact that the Biden administration only formally asked Congress to pass an extension on Thursday, two days before the program expired. Some White House officials made a late-stage push last week to reexamine the legal potential for President Joe Biden to extend the moratorium but were told by administration lawyers it wasn't possible, according to people familiar with the deliberations. You'd never know from the White House's late ask or Pelosi's lame excuse that the Supreme Court was very clear one month ago; either Congress could vote again to authorize the program or evictions could go forward."
From "The rent is now due, America" (CNN).
As the article goes on to explain, the Supreme Court allowed the moratorium to continue, but it was a 5-4 decision, and Justice Kavanaugh, the 5th vote, concurred to say he specified that he was only accepting this exercise of executive power because it was set to end on July 31st and that Congress would need to act for it to continue.
The idea that Congress was not on notice is utterly untenable. "We only learned of this yesterday" indeed!
