Gov. Eric Holcomb on Tuesday extended Indiana’s moratorium on housing evictions for one month, through the end of July, continuing a prohibition put in place in March due to financial hardships wrought by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Holcomb’s executive order issued Tuesday extends the prohibition on non-emergency evictions and foreclosures that had been set to expire on June 30. The order further prohibits disconnection of utilities for nonpayment until Aug. 14. That proclamation follows a similar ruling of the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission on Monday.

The order notes that with more than 45,000 coronavirus cases and in excess of 2,400 deaths, there is also a need to extend the temporary licensing of health care workers. The order extends for 90 days the initial 90-day temporary licenses that were issued to retired health care professionals, physician assistant students, nursing students, respiratory care practitioner students, graduate pharmacists and out-of-state health care professionals.
