Despite pandemic eviction bans, people are still losing their homes
Brooks Jarosz reports about the precarious position of California tenants who are on the verge of losing protections against evictions during the pandemic.
Jean Kendrick, and her son, Stanley Jackson, who has a disability, are currently without a home during a global pandemic.
They were recently evicted from their apartment in Richmond, and now live in an extended-stay hotel. The room they’re in is uncomfortable, and they can’t afford it.
"We’re about ready to run out of money," Kendrick said.
