1，多州都開始了，文中列舉了：CA, MA, WA, FL, MD, NY, PA，etc. 估計其它地方很快跟上

2，政府官員是這麽想的：Ban eviction to avoid greater public health emergency. 和public health聯係上了，不再隻是房租問題。

Avoiding evictions at a time when millions of people could lose income is also a matter of public health. “This pandemic is a stark reminder that housing is health care,” said Diane Yentel, president and CEO of the National Low Income Housing Coalition.

真理直氣壯。

3，Washington state 可能會有emergency rental assistance funds at the state and local level。這還可以接受，不能光要landlord奉獻免租，政府可以幫付房租嘛。希望其它州政府都跟上，不要光號召地主們為房客們的特殊情況考慮，地主的錢不是從天上掉下來的，政府可以印錢。

既然政府的態度這麽鮮明，我在等著看哪幾個房客會先發郵件來要求不交或少交4月份房租，是白玉房客還是白菜房客。
