Certain North Carolina housing eviction policies will end Thursday after a partisan Council of State vote Tuesday to not extend them through July 31.
However, Cooper administration officials stressed that many renters remain under federal Centers for Disease Control & Prevention eviction protections if they qualify in the following criteria:
Received a federal stimulus check in 2020 or 2021;
Were not required to report income to the IRS in 2020;
Earn less than $99,000 ($198,000 filing jointly) per year; and
Cannot make rent payments due to lost income.
The office of Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper reported that Republicans Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, State Treasurer Dale Folwell, Labor Commissioner Josh Dobson, Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler, Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey and State Superintendent of Public Instruction Catherine Truitt opposed extending the executive order.
