Supreme Court: Biden eviction moratorium shot down by Supreme Court
"Population shifts revealed by the 2020 Census herald changes to come in US politics as the country becomes more diverse, experts say. The number of Americans who identify as white has fallen below 60% for the first time and population growth is being driven by ethnic minorities."
The U.S. Supreme Court has blocked the Biden Administration's COVID-related moratorium on evictions, and has ruled that evictions will be allowed to resume across the country. The judges voted along party lines, with all three democratic judges dissenting and six conservatives ruling in favor of blocking the proposed extension.
