2) Peter Hepburn, Assistant Professor of Sociology at Rutgers University-Newark, and Research Fellow with The Eviction Lab at Princeton University examines the possible policy solutions to the pending evictions of as many as 28 million people across the U.S. as local and state COVID-19 linked moratoriums on evictions expire.
