QUESTION OF THE DAY: Do you think another 90 days for a federal eviction moratorium was needed?

The ban on evictions in the United States was reinstated Tuesday evening by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Three days earlier, the previous eviction ban expired after a failed vote in the U.S. Congress.

The new eviction moratorium is in effect until Oct. 3. It covers 90% of the country experiencing what the CDC calls "substantial transmission," and efforts largely quote the highly contagious delta variant.

Denise McCorkle, current president of the Jefferson City Board of Realtors, said the federal assistance that should be given out with the eviction ban is not making into the hands of those who deserve it.
