According to the Census Bureau, an estimated 1.2 million households will face eviction when the rent moratorium expires in October and over 60% of the renters in need have yet to even apply for aid.
Susan Thomas, president of the Melville Charitable Trust, joins Charles Blow on “Prime” to discuss the aid for rental assistance.
