California to Pay off all Past Due Rent Accrued During COVID, Giving Renters Clean Slate

California is paying off residents' past due rent that was accrued during the COVID-19 pandemic, giving renters a clean slate, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced recently.

The state's $5.2 billion in funds from Congressionally-approved aid packages is enough to pay off overdue rent, according to Newsom's senior counselor on housing and homelessness, Jason Elliott, the Associated Press reported. However, just $32 million out of $490 million in requests for rental assistance through May 31 have been covered so far, according to a California Department Housing and Community Development report.

"We should do our best to get back to the starting point where we were in December of 2019. Anything other than that is taking advantage of a crisis," said Keith Becker, a property manager in Sonoma County. He revealed that 14 tenants have not paid $100,000 worth of rent.

Someone is desperate to avoid recall.

I noticed this thread as I was listening to a YouTube video about prosecutors letting rioters go and how democrats are likely to continue voting for the same shit.

A double dose of left-wing inanity.

I wonder who will get the checks? The renters or the landlords?

Maybe the casinos and drug dealers. :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

13. Somewhat question...

California max unemployment is $450 per week+300 federal=39K+ minimum 3K over 3 stimulus checks=42K minimum and now every renter is eligible for 10K plus in rent forgiveness=52K for a single childless worker-or pretty close to 4 times Social security income. I kinda bet there are a bunch of people (like 10%+) who merely found it more convenient not to pay and think there should be some form of needs testing-because this is NOT a prepay like unemployment or SSI-this is fullblown government "largess" and as such there will be large scale undeserving (or unneeding) takers.

And of course those of us who managed to keep working, paid our bills and didn't rely on the government teat are the ones punished for this giveaway of hard earned taxpayer dollars by people who do not give a crap about us.
