Hey, everyone. Today is July 31st, which means that for many people rent is due tomorrow,

and we want to check in on how stable you're feeling in your housing. Because according

to our recent survey, nearly a third of Americans relate on their housing payments in July,

or miss them all together. The total amount of back rent owed in the US is more than $21.5

billion right now. And for some, it's just going to get tougher. The Federal Eviction

Moratorium expired last week, and as of this morning, there's no deal in Washington

to extend it. There's also no deal so far to re-up the additional $600 a week for unemployed

people that expires today. All of this has led the COVID-19 Eviction Defense Project to

estimate that as many as 23 million renting families are at risk of losing their housing

by the end of September, that's 20% of all renters in the US. So if you are worrying

about how and if you're going to be able to stay in your place, we want to hear from

you. If you're managing to make rent right now, but it's tight, what trade-offs are you

making to be able to pay? And if you think you might need to leave your home because

of money, where do you think you might go? Whether you've got rent or a mortgage payment,

if you are stressed right now, you're not the only one. Tell us what's going on by

the end of this weekend. Record a voice memo and send it to us by Sunday night to death

sex money at wnyc.org.
