"Neither the taxpayers nor the millions of people who rely on these programs can afford waste or inefficiency."

"The truth is these cuts are having an impact. And in so many cases, it is an impact that is being felt by the most vulnerable in our society."

"HUD needs to live up to its responsibilities to oversee these housing authorities."
