Biden to announce new eviction ban due to COVID spread

The Biden administration will announce a new 60-day eviction moratorium that would protect areas where 90% of the U.S. population lives, according to three people familiar with the plans who insisted on anonymity to discuss the forthcoming announcement.

Details? I dunno. The article goes on and on and on but there don't seem to be any fucking details.

Right now - Biden's giving a presser and he's going to this mysterious ban.


Edit 1

Holy fuck - Biden's passing the buck. And he broke his promise about not messing with science.

He said the CDC will issue the details about a possible ban in an hour or two(?).

[I made some small edits.]

Jesus fuck - what a shit show.


Edit 2

"CDC to issue new eviction ban effective through Oct. 3, source says" - I put the entire link/article into a comment.

    The article doesn't really mention what the measures entail and I'm concerned that

    protect areas where 90% of the U.S. population lives

    Means it's (in my estimation) just going to be the coasts, notice it's not 90% of renters, just total population mentioned.

    Cool that something's being done I guess, I'm not holding my breath for anything significant though.
