The state's eviction moratorium is ending. Now what?
Minnesota’s eviction moratorium is coming to an end. This week, Minnesota lawmakers passed a bill that will gradually phase out the moratorium in the coming months. The moratorium barred most evictions during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The bill creates an “off-ramp” for the moratorium that will leave some protections in place until next summer.
Host Angela Davis spoke with the state housing commissioner and a researcher who has studied evictions about what comes after the eviction moratorium ends and the broader problem of housing affordability in Minnesota.
