Ohio County Stands Up to Biden's Attack on Private Property Rights

Franklin County, Ohio, is taking a stand against President Biden’s recent directive for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to issue a 60-day eviction moratorium extension.
In a statement released on Thursday, Franklin County Municipal Court Administrative and Presiding Judge Ted Barrows said the county will not comply, citing an appeals court ruling last month.

On July 23, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati found the CDC didn’t have the authority to impose the nationwide moratorium.

Judge Barrows made clear to the Columbus Dispatch, however, that tenants still have the same rights they did before the pandemic. Not only is there a process that must be followed, there is also pandemic aid still available for individuals struggling to pay rent.
