Solution Looms Wolcott Has Wedge To Crack Housing Tie Up
Rep. Jesse Wolcott proposes a bill as a rallying point to break the House deadlock over federal housing programs. The plan seeks a one year extension for home repair and urban redevelopment, plus 3.4 billion to insure mortgages, while omitting public housing. Sources expect the Rules Committee to take up the bill, with Wolcott aiming to tilt toward ending public housing and winding down related programs.
