I think Biden wanted to extend it if delta got worse. Its getting worse, so he asked congress to vote on it. The Dems dropped their suit because they didn't even have the votes in the house.. even tho it would've surely died in the senate.
That's no excuse seeing as 1. Biden said a month ago that he was going to let the eviction expire this month and 2. That Supreme Court decision was made months ago so Biden and Congress knew the clock was ticking to come up with some sort of solution. You do that shyt months ago (they've had over a year) and not the day before it expires.
This entire pandemic the government has literally just threw bread out there with no process or actual guidelines in how it was supposed to be dispersed and allocated. They should have simplified and streamlined the process months ago to allow landlords to file on behalf of their tenants, which would benefit all parties involved.
What's the purpose of having billions of dollars out there to be had for tenants/landlords if the application process is too complicated for even the states to figure out? These states out here don't want mass evictions no more than the federal government does because it becomes their problem.
