    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) extended a temporary halt on residential evictions to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. This extension lasts from January 31, 2021, through March 31, 2021, and aims to protect renters from eviction if they meet certain criteria, like having a drop in income or making partial rental payments. The order seeks to prevent evicted individuals from moving into crowded settings, which can heighten the risk of spreading the virus. It also highlights available federal resources, such as rental assistance programs, to support those financially impacted by the pandemic.

    Simple Explanation

    The CDC made a rule to stop people from being kicked out of their homes for a little while to help stop people from getting sick with COVID-19. This means if people have lost their jobs or can't pay all their rent, they won't be forced to leave their homes until at least the end of March 2021, giving them more time to find help and stay safe.
