(Salem, OR) -- The Oregon Legislature is approving additional emergency rent relief. In a special session, the Legislature approved a bill that adds 100-million dollars to the emergency rental relief fund. A hundred-million dollars goes to existing rental assistance programs. Ten-million dollars goes to the Landlord Guarantee Fund. Five-million dollars will be used to speed up distribution of federal emergency relief funds. Several legislators called for an audit of the Oregon Housing and Community Services program which is behind in getting rental assistance money distributed. The bill also extends the eviction moratorium to next June.
