Barney Frank: “They are going to transition to where? The gentleman keeps saying they are going to transition to somewhere. He said…”

“They are going to transition to where? The gentleman keeps saying they are going to transition to somewhere. He said before, we are going to spend all this money, it is just to renew the section 8, it is these same number of units. And this notion that they are going to transition to somewhere. Where? Oz? Fairyland? This is out of sight, out of mind to the very poor. Of course we should make these changes. But, essentially, what the gentleman from Long Island [Mr. Lazio] is saying is, dealing with these very poor people has not worked because they are too hard to deal with and let us start ignoring them and then we can claim success and God knows what will happen to them.”
