Speakers Steve Weiss, JD Spyker and Mary Latourette all articulated the importance of having a stable, safe place to call home, and expressed frustration with Federal plans to cut housing programs that work.
The Bush Administration's proposed Fiscal Year 2007 Budget would cut housing programs for seniors, people with disabilities and working families, as well as proven economic and community development programs. If passed, these budget cuts will take effect next October. For more details visit the Community Development Network.
