Protecting Renters (Cong. Rec., July 30, 2021)

Summary

Congressional Record, House, page H4302, July 30, 2021, under Protecting Renters. Mr. Hoyer asks unanimous consent that the Committee on Energy and Commerce be discharged from further consideration of the bill H.R. 4791 to extend the moratorium on residential evictions; the printed text gives its short title as the Protecting Renters from Evictions Act of 2021. A message from the President of the United States designates funding as an emergency requirement under H.R. 3237. Mr. O'Halleran honors a 4-year-old girl who was swept away by flood waters, and Mr. Nehls honors Dusty Hill of ZZ Top.
