WASHINGTON—A divided Supreme Court on Thursday lifted part of New York’s eviction moratorium, saying the state had gone too far in protecting tenants at the expense of landlords.
The high court, in an unsigned written order, blocked a state measure that made it easy for tenants to invoke eviction protections by self-certifying that they were facing financial hardships during the Covid-19 pandemic. Landlords generally couldn’t challenge such certifications.
The court said its order did nothing to disturb other New York provisions that allow tenants to invoke eviction protections in court proceedings, so long as they can demonstrate pandemic-related hardships.
Above all else, this country was made by and for the propertied, capital class. COVID has highlighted how in the US, regular citizens are fodder, expendable, & invisible
This is where liberals tell me that Cori Bush/AOC waiting to the last second to show up to fight to extend the eviction moratorium wasn't anything other than a photo-op. 🤔 This is what happens when u lack the courage to call out BOTH parties for their hands in this situation.
Well... Get together and buy the buildings!!! LOL
Things will develop in the opposite direction when they become extreme.
That’s ridiculous when the money is available to landlords they just have to claim it from the feds
wow
