I just read an article about why you shouldn’t be a gunner in law school. Apparently it prevents you from making social connections that’ll help you get ahead in your career. Which is like the most gunner reason for not being a gunner.

To determine eligibility for the CDC's eviction moratorium, tenants have to pull data from the CDC's website and check if their county's rolling COVID risk level crosses a certain regulatory threshold. 👇@GoA2JTech turned that complex analysis into a simple two questions app:
Under the new @CDCgov #EvictionMoratorium, a tenant only qualifies for protection if their county has experienced substantial or high rates of COVID-19 transmission. We have updated our site to check your eligibility before generating a letter. Share: covid19evictionforms.com
