Good deal.
Multiple news sites are carrying the story. With the gist being that if it is to be continued, congress MUST legislate it.
(By the way, I suspect the demoncrappers are just inane enough to do exactly that.)

U.S. Supreme Court ends CDC's pandemic residential eviction moratorium

The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday ended the pandemic-related federal moratorium on residential evictions imposed by President Joe Biden's administration in a challenge to the policy brought by a coalition of landlords and real estate trade groups.
The justices, who in June had left in place a prior ban that expired at the end of July, granted a request by the challengers to lift the moratorium by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that was to have run until Oct. 3.
The challengers argued that the law on which the CDC relied did not allow it to implement the current ban.
"It strains credulity to believe that this statute grants the CDC the sweeping authority that it asserts," the court said in an unsigned opinion.
"If a federally imposed eviction moratorium is to continue, Congress must specifically authorize it," the court added.
The three liberal justices on the court, which has a 6-3 conservative majority, all dissented.
The White House said it was disappointed by the decision and urged states, local governments, landlords and Cabinet agencies to "urgently act" to help prevent evictions.
