1. CDC?

2. How does the CDC have any jurisdiction in this?

3. I guess it's a work-around...

so they don't have to pass legislation

U.S. President Donald Trump on Aug. 8 directed CDC to consider if temporarily halting residential evictions was "reasonably necessary to prevent the further spread of COVID-19."

5. Yet another meaningless stunt from Trump

8. It may be a stunt, but unlikely to be meaningless.

9. +1, cause the banks don't give a damn what the CDC says or Trump

[Progressive Law]

6. CDC order to stop the spread of a communicable disease, under the authority of the executive branch.

CDC is an executive branch agency. It's an extension of an executive order. Allowable in response to public health emergency

15. There are definitely some Constitutional questions here. There might be a injunction.

10. CDC has no authority, and With the reduced test BS, they have no credibility

11. I wonder if the are helping landlords to

Like ones especially who only own 1 or 2 other places have mortgages on them that rent covers.

Will they lose the homes they rent?

In this I feel sorry for both sides.

12. This does not really sound like it does anything.

So, CDC "says" it is going to extend people being safe from losing their homes but FEMA will not give poor children who are being forced to go back to school face masks.

Well, if the family unit who will not lose their home yet has maskless children and grandma with health problems living there that is another government euthanasia.

13. The CDC order should prevent some people from becoming homeless, that's something.

14. Some is better than none.

My heart goes to those who still are going to lose their homes anyway.
