New York’s statewide eviction moratorium will be extended to Jan. 15, 2022, Gov. Kathy Hochul’s office announced on Thursday.
The state’s lawmakers voted to extend the residential and commercial eviction moratorium on Wednesday, when Hochul convened a special session of the state legislature for the vote. She later signed the measure into law, which will extend the eviction ban that was set to expire on Aug. 31.
