14 million American households brace for impact as eviction protections expire
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. / CNN John Ayers talked with pride as he listed the things he used to be able to afford as an insurance agent, pre-pandemic: $2,000 monthly rent, hundreds of dollars in prescriptions for his severe arthritis and diabetes, and even a regular Uber driver, known as Fast Ice, that would take him to the grocery store in a black Mercedes-Benz van.
COVID-19 has upended Ayers’ life.
“Fortunately, I haven’t gotten the virus, but I’ve fallen victim to it,” he said.
His eyes filled with tears as he described losing his job early last summer, exhausting his savings paying for rent, medications and utility bills, and getting slapped with an eviction notice.
