Goldman Sachs says 750,000 households could be evicted this year unless Congress acts
CNN
If Congress doesn't implement a new eviction ban, three-quarters of a million American households could be evicted later this year, according to new research.
Goldman Sachs estimates that between 2.5 million and 3.5 million households are significantly behind on rent, owing a combined $12 billion to $17 billion to landlords. Those renters appeared to be safe from eviction until at least October until the Supreme Court last week struck down the Biden administration's ban on evictions, indicating that further action must come from Congress. At the same time, most state-level restrictions on evictions are scheduled to expire over the next month, which the Goldman Sachs analysts noted in the Sunday night report.
