By Julia Conley, Common Dreams

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was among several critics on Friday who warned that the Biden administration’s plan to allow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s eviction moratorium to expire on July 31 would have devastating consequences for millions of renters as well as threatening public health as Covid-19 cases surge.

President Joe Biden extended the moratorium by one month in June but has shown no signs that he plans to do the same this month.
