The state’s eviction moratorium is set to expire on June 30th, but Governor Jay Inslee’s office said a short-term extension is coming.
Inslee spoke at a COVID-19 vaccine event Tuesday.
“There will be some action we will take in the next several days,” said Inslee. “We think we need a bridge because the legislature financed a way to help tenants and landlords but it won’t be in effect for some time.”
Housing advocates are hoping to see a three-month extension.
More details are expected soon.
