JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – With an estimated 4 million Americans behind on rent, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has extended the eviction moratorium imposed during the pandemic until the end of June. The moratorium, which halted evictions for people unable to make their rent payments, was set to run out on Wednesday. She said if a tenant meets criteria laid out by the federal government, they’re protected from being evicted. If you’re served with an eviction notice, DeVries said not to ignore it. Even though the federal moratorium has been extended for almost a year now, DeVries said this will likely be the last time it happens.
