  1. No, not the liberals - conservatives. "President Reagan will propose deep cutbacks in funds for operating and repairing the nation's 1.2 million public housing units and elimination of eight other housing and urban aid programs, according to documents obtained yesterday. The proposed reductions would tighten the squeeze on big-city housing authorities, which have been plagued by decaying buildings, vacant apartments, rising fuel costs and declining federal aid while waiting lists have stretched to as long as 25 years. One program that would receive no money under Reagan's fiscal 1986 budget, scheduled for release next week, finances construction of housing for the elderly and the handicapped. Reagan praised this program, which he previously tried to eliminate, during a September campaign visit to a Buffalo senior citizens housing project. Other programs slated for elimination include housing vouchers for the poor, urban development action grants, housing development grants, rental rehabilitation grants and a small housing program for Indians." - Washington Post Put the blame in it's proper place.

  5. "Barry Zigas, president of the National Low-Income Housing Coalition, said, "It's a complete abandonment of a 50-year bipartisan commitment to low-income housing. At a time of rising homelessness in all parts of the country, it would be unconscionable for Congress to approve a budget like this." - Washington Post
