Maybank Shifts on Public Housing After Court Ruling
The Supreme Court refused the San Francisco Housing Authority appeal, upholding a lower court ruling that segregation in public housing violates equal protection. Sen Maybank of South Carolina reacted by saying he can no longer support public housing, affecting banking committee actions on up to 810,000 housing units and a broader four year program. Sparkman said he would study Maybank’s statement before deciding his own stance.
