One landlord who ended his hunger strike Tuesday evening is calling the Alameda County Board of Supervisor's decision to let the eviction moratorium expire a big victory.
Friends and fellow property owners gathered around George Wu, who was feeling so weak and unwell he sat in a wheelchair.
"Not eating food, a hunger strike will definitely harm him," said Jenny Zhao, interpreting for Wu."It is Oakland, so safety is a real concern, he figured that this is his only way to make his story heard." He said their inability to pay had nothing to do with COVID. Both parents took advantage of the system, after stating they had good paying jobs on their rental application.
The moratorium under current county law will expire 60 days after Tuesday, when California's COVID emergency ends.
