> I further understand that fees, penalties, or interest for not paying rent or making a housing payment on time as required by my tenancy, lease agreement, or similar contract may still be charged or collected.

This part seems like an odd choice, if we're already amending the rental contract in terms of timeliness, it seems odd to double-down on late-payment fees.




Even without fees, very few people stand any chance of paying back late rent and avoiding eviction. All this will do is trigger a bunch of evictions once the election is over and it’ll have less of a political impact.

As is, this order only delays the pain, it doesn’t alleviate it.
