(Photo by Anna Moneymaker\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN Newsroom<br \/>UPDATED 12:43 PM PT \u2013 Friday, August 27, 2021<\/h5>\n<p>In a 6-3 vote on Thursday, the Supreme Court blocked the Biden administration\u2019s eviction moratorium. According to the high court, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention doesn\u2019t have the authority to impose an eviction moratorium. Rather, \u201cif a federally imposed eviction moratorium is to continue, Congress must specifically authorize it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the ruling, justices said the CDC imposed a nationwide moratorium in reliance on a decades-old statute that authorizes the implementation of measures like pest extermination. The court said the move strains the belief that the statute grants the center the sweeping authority it asserts.<\/p>\n<p>Reports said there are now more than 15 million people living in households who owe as much as $20 billion total in back rent. Landlords have repeatedly voiced their concern over the moratorium during the pandemic, arguing that without rent they\u2019re out of business. They pointed out how they can\u2019t pay maintenance staff or fix their buildings without income.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re asking me as a private sector landlord to provide public or free housing. It\u2019s not my role,\u201d stated Gary Zaremba. \u201cMy role is to supply housing, get paid for it, and if you\u2019re preventing me from evicting someone for not paying their rent, then you\u2019re asking me to be subsidized housing.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Supreme Court halts Biden\u2019s eviction moratorium, which began as Trump\u2019s eviction moratorium.<\/p>\n<p>I have consistently asserted, under both administrations, that the orders were unconstitutional.<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/iZFoeZ1nXv\">https:\/\/t.co\/iZFoeZ1nXv<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Thomas Massie (@RepThomasMassie) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RepThomasMassie\/status\/1431108080813711361?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 27, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>On Thursday, the Biden administration said it was disappointed in the ruling and have urged states, cities and landlords to prevent evictions.<\/p>\n<p>White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki drew attention to the renters helped by the moratorium, however, she failed to address the landlords who were prohibited from removing tenants even under extreme circumstances, such as when their property was being damaged. The Biden administration allowed an earlier federal moratorium to lapse at the end of July, confident the fight with the CDC moratorium would get caught up in the courts.<\/p>\n<p>While the CDC ban has been shot down, state-issued moratoriums will remain in places like California and Illinois, where eviction protections have been extended to Sept. 30 and Sept. 18 respectively. Meanwhile on Thursday, embattled Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.) tweeted that Golden State renters would not be impacted by the court\u2019s decision, saying the state\u2019s eviction moratorium remains in effect.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">California renters will NOT be impacted by this news, the state\u2019s eviction moratorium remains in effect.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re focused on ensuring tenants and small landlords get the rent relief they need under California\u2019s renter assistance program, the largest in the country. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/VZ0hjaMqKS\">https:\/\/t.co\/VZ0hjaMqKS<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Office of the Governor of California (@CAgovernor) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CAgovernor\/status\/1431080302596681729?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 27, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Rental housing associations have argued the state ban is unconstitutional, explaining how incentivizing tenants not to fulfill their obligations is irresponsible.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, reports said only about a tenth of federal rental aid had been paid out to renters, landlords and utility companies so far. Additionally, according to the Treasury Department, just over $5 billion of the $46 billion allocated has been distributed to nearly one million households.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/gop-biden-has-blood-on-his-hands-should-be-removed-from-office\/\">Lawmakers: Biden Has American Blood On His Hands<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON, DC \u2013 AUGUST 27: The sun rises behind U.S. Supreme Court building on August 27, 2021 in Washington, D.C.
