It was an especially striking omission because Hurricane Helene, one of the most destructive and deadliest hurricanes in U.S. history, had just wiped out entire towns in western North Carolina. As people continue to evaluate the full scope of Helene’s damage, Hurricane Milton—another storm intensified by the fossil fuel–driven climate crisis—hit Florida late Wednesday night, unleashing more climate hell in the Southeast.

For a fleeting moment in the pandemic, it was common sense that tenants shouldn’t have to pay rent. How could they pay, amid a world-rending health crisis prompting millions of layoffs, when one might have to choose between shelter, debt payments, or groceries?

But landlords found loopholes that allowed them to evict despite the virus, and in August 2021 the Supreme Court killed the mandate off entirely. Housing cases piled up once again. Читать дальше...
