Gov. Gavin Newsom on Monday evening issued an executive order to help prevent evictions during the coronavirus outbreak.
The order gives local governments the authority to halt evictions for renters and homeowners, but stops short of creating a statewide moratorium. The order also aims to slow foreclosures and help keep utilities running for residents affected by COVID-19.
