The stated purpose of the order is preventing the further spread of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), specifically by preventing homelessness and overcrowded housing conditions resulting from eviction. The action, which followed an Executive Order directing the CDC to consider such a measure, is unprecedented, both in terms of the federal reach into what is traditionally state and local governanc e of landlord-tenant law and its use of a public health authority for this purpose. The new national eviction moratorium took effect less than two weeks after the expiration of a different and narrower set of eviction protections established by the CARES Act (§4024). This Insight compares the two eviction moratoriums across severalkey features and ends with a review of some outstanding questions raised by the new moratorium. Key Features Time Period The CARES Act eviction moratorium began on March 27, 2020 and ended on July 2-, 2020. Covered tenants could not be forced to vacate until 30 days after the expiration of the moratorium (August 23, 2020). The new national eviction moratorium issued by CDC took effect September 4, 2020, and extends through December 31, 2020; it does not address notices to vacate. Coverage The CARES Act eviction moratorium applied to federally related properties, which the act defines as properties participating in federal assistance programs or with federally backed financing.
