Activists and lawmakers rally against congressional inertia. Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images Missouri Rep. Cori Bush led colleagues and activists in a rally for eviction relief. On a balmy, overcast Tuesday in Washington, protesters and lawmakers gathered on either end of the Capitol to urge Congress and the White House to act on two issues of varying urgency: the push for a new voting rights law and a solution to the recently expired eviction moratorium. The public demonstrations raised thorny questions about what, exactly, the United States government owes its citizens. On at least one of those matters, there was something of a breakthrough. The administration on Tuesday evening announced a new eviction moratorium targeting “specific areas of the country where cases are rapidly increasing” even though the White House had previously said it did not have the legal authority to extend the original moratorium beyond its July 31 expiration date.
