The eviction tidal wave and how to solve an affordable housing crisis

from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

The federal moratorium on evictions is set to expire on June 30th. The protections were put in place at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, but now they are set to go away and that could mean millions of people nationwide who are behind on rent could find themselves out of their homes. Dr. Avenel Joseph is the Vice President for Policy of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the nation’s largest health philanthropy. Dr. Joseph breaks down why we have such an affordable housing problem in this country, what we could do to fix it, and why the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation is urging that the moratorium be extended.
