New York Extends Eviction Moratorium Halted by U.S. Supreme Court
-----------------------------------------------------------------

The United States recorded more than 210,000 coronavirus cases Wednesday
as COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths continue to rise. Here in New
York, lawmakers have extended an eviction moratorium through January 15.
New York is the first state to enact renter protections since the U.S.
Supreme Court last week threw out a nationwide eviction moratorium
ordered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
