520 |a According to Congressman Charles E. Schumer in his opening statement, the deqrease in Federal housing funds is inextricably linked to the increase in homelessness. Since 1981 the Reagan Administration has been systematically dismantling the nation's housing programs, leaving tens of thousands of low-income people homeless. In 1982 there were 1,088 homeless families in New York City; by 1987 the number had risen to 5,100. Among the witnesses at this hearing were victims of the Administration's housing policy: people who have lost their homes because of cuts in low-income programs, and people who will soon lose their homes if the present cuts continue. Other witnesses include Congressman Mario Biaggi, Mayor Edward I. Koch, and Andrew Cuomo. Prepared statements, charts, and additional information are appended. (BJV)
