AOC and ‘The Squad’ credit Cori Bush as they celebrate eviction ban extension

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and members of “The Squad” erupted in celebration when the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced a 60-day extension of the eviction moratorium that had expired over the weekend — crediting fellow Progressive member Cori Bush’s protests for the move.

Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) had been camping on the Capitol steps since last week to protest the expiration of the ban and to press the Biden administration to extend it.
