On the recordMarch 18, 1997
Perhaps in our housing subcommittee, we can certainly address that. It seems to me that one of the items of legislation that I have introduced that I think would address this is sunset review of Federal agencies, to say if they are not really fulfilling their original purpose, maybe they need to be downsized, privatized, or eliminated. The fact is while we need to have a housing policy to take care of assisting those in need, I do not think it goes to the assistance on pet deportment.
