The Columbus City Council distributed another $9.5 million in federal rent and utility assistance to a local nonprofit group, part of a second round of $21.55 billion in relief passed by Congress last year.
“Even as the American economy continues its recovery from the devastating impact of the pandemic, millions of Americans face deep rental debt and fear evictions and the loss of basic housing security,” the U.S. Treasury says on its website page for its “Emergency Rental Assistance Program.” The second federal allocation brings to $46.55 billion in federal aid sent to states and local governments since COVID-19 struck in the spring of 2020.
