Protesters Gather At Speaker Pelosi’s House To Demand Eviction Moratorium Extension
Activists gathered at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) home to demand her eviction in jest. While organizing Saturday in conjunction with Rep. Cori Bush’s (D-Mo.) protest on the steps of the U.S. Capitol, activists demanded a congressional session to extend the eviction moratorium.
The notice claims because of rising COVID case counts, people should be allowed to stay in their homes regardless of rent payment status. The House went into its Summer recess Friday without passing the moratorium extension.
