In spite of all of our cuttings, there are things that government has to do and should do. I'm pleased to announce that the Department of Housing and Urban Development has advised me that they've agreed to approve section 8 funding for 125 units of elderly housing at Park Place, in Ewing, New Jersey. And if you don't elect her Senator, we'll take it away. Another threat to the family is crime. Many of you have written to me how afraid you are any more to walk the streets at night.
Many older citizens are frightened to go out even during the daytime.
It's time to get the hardened criminal off the street and into jail. And right now before the Congress is an omnibus anticrime package. That means it's big. And it means that we're serious about fighting crime. It means we are going to give the victims the break instead of the criminal.
