Stimulus Bill Protects Millions of Renters From Eviction Until the End of January

Written By Tracy Brown

The long-awaited stimulus package agreed on by lawmakers over the weekend will provide some relief for desperate Americans.

It also offers a temporary reprieve to millions of renters who could otherwise have faced evictions at the end of the year. The eviction moratorium has been extended until Jan. 31, 2021, and the compromise bill contains $25 billion in rental assistance. Back in September, an order from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention halted evictions until the end of December for low-income households impacted by COVID-19.
