Speaker Quinn: Let people living in AIDS housing LIVE!

People with HIV/AIDS and housing providers joined elected officials
on the steps of City Hall today to call on state leaders to pass affordable housing
legislation that would help prevent nearly 11,000 New Yorkers from losing their
homes. Speaker Christine and Council Member Rosie Mendez introduced a
formal resolution (Res 2145-2009) supporting the legislation that will be voted on
later today.
"This piece of legislation will not only save money for our state, but it will save
money for the thousands of HASA clients and provide some vital relief for their
pocketbooks. I urge Speaker Sheldon Silver and Governor David Paterson to
support this bill so we can take action towards making HASA clients' lives easier
and more affordable," said Speaker Christine Quinn.
