REP. ENGEL WORKING FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN THE BRONX
03/31/11Congressman Eliot Engel (D-NY-17) met with local public housing advocates in Washington on Wednesday, March 31, 2011 to discuss the need for better public housing in the Bronx. Rep. Engel assured the Tenants Association members from Gun Hill, Fort Independence and Baychester that he supports legislation to revitalize the nation’s public housing stock, and will protect low- to middle-income families. As someone who grew up in public housing, the 12-term Congressman vowed to oppose all attempts to cut federal support for affordable public housing.
