SACRAMENTO—California’s eviction moratorium was extended until June 30 to allow eligible tenants who have applied for rental assistance to receive their payments as the state runs behind on distributing funds.
Assembly Bill (AB) 2179 introduced by Assemblymembers Tim Grayson (D-Concord) and Buffy Wicks (D-Oakland) was passed in the state Senate on March 31 before being urgently signed by Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis, who is currently filling in for Gov. Gavin Newsom while he is on vacation.
