Cartoon: shows a man with a moving box saying, "great! Think you'll be done by Friday?" as he stands next to a woman holding a box labeled, "eviction moratorium ending." They both look hopefully a construction crew promising 660,000 more housing units.

California's eviction moratorium is set to expire Thursday, just a few weeks after Gov. Gavin Newsom signed three groundbreaking housing bills.

With housing in short supply, prices skyrocketing and evictions looming, it's time to start swinging those hammers.
