We can safely say that American housing was transformed under those programs. and that today Americans are on the whole the best housed people in the world. But there are still millions of Americans who do not have decent homes. Last summer the subcommittee and I visited site after site in which migrant farmworkers. for example. less than 11/2 hours drive from this Nations Capitol. were living in conditions not fit even for livestock. let alone human beings. I need not remind any one of my colleagues that we still have slums. that we still have unspeakably bad housing for millions of poor people. And I do not need to remind anyone that almost none of our citizens can go out and find an affordable home to buy or a place to rent in todays market.
