Eviction Ban Reversal Upsets Lobbyists

Housing lobbyists are upset about President Biden’s decision to revive the eviction ban. The President’s unexpected move to reinstate the federal eviction moratorium is a political loss for the National Association of Realtors and its industry allies who say they were excluded from discussions on the ban with the White House. Despite millions of dollars in contributions, industry trade groups felt the sting of betrayal from progressive lawmakers. The eviction ban fight is making its way through the courts.
