ALABAMA ASSN. OF REALTORS v. DEPARTMENT 
OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVS. 
BREYER, J., dissenting 

Applicants  raise  contested  legal  questions  about  an  im-
portant federal statute on which the lower courts are split 
and on which this Court has never actually spoken.  These 
questions call for considered decisionmaking, informed by
full  briefing  and  argument.    Their  answers  impact  the 
health of millions.  We should not set aside the CDC’s evic-
tion moratorium in this summary proceeding.  The criteria 
for granting the emergency application are not met.  I re-
spectfully dissent.
