The briefing also touched on Governor Greg Abbott's alleged mistreatment of migrant children at the border, with Jean-Pierre denouncing the claims as "abhorrent" and "completely wrong." The briefing ended with a question about President Biden's response to potential violence in reaction to further indictments of the former President, to which Jean-Pierre simply stated that the administration is always prepared.

The Epoch Times: IN-DEPTH: 'Just Cause' Policies Benefit Tenants, but Landlords Say They 'Just Cause' Problems
"Just cause" eviction policies aim to protect tenants by allowing landlords to evict them only for specific reasons.

Just cause protections have been adopted in various states and cities across the country. However, they can also have negative consequences, such as limiting the ability to sell a property or deal with disruptive tenants. The implementation of just cause laws is likely to expand and be tested in the future as eviction rates return to normal levels after the COVID-19 pandemic.
