On the recordMarch 24, 2004
I rise this afternoon on behalf of military families. I am particularly concerned today that the current statutory cap on the housing privatization will hurt our military families because this cap will be reached by November of this year, and it stands to affect nearly 50,000 military families from all services, families like the one that is pictured here, families that are currently living in substandard housing in all of these military facilities. In talking to them, they mentioned to us that one of the biggest challenges that they face is substandard housing, substandard housing for our military families while our brave men and women in uniform are fighting and dying in Iraq, Afghanistan and other parts of the world. Unconscionable. We need to lift this cap and allow these 50,000 families to have decent housing.
