Washington, D.C.—Today, Sen. Sherrod Brown, Chairman of the U.S. Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, released the following statement after the Supreme Court ruled against the CDC’s eviction moratorium.

“The Supreme Court ruled against public safety and against struggling families trying to weather this ongoing crisis,” said Brown. “This is a shameful decision, especially when the troubling rise of the Delta variant means families need protection now more than ever. It is vital that state and local governments join us in preventing evictions, including connecting renters with the assistance we passed so that families can stay in their homes as we work to put this public health crisis behind us.”
