Long Island Congressman Peter King also criticized HUD's latest assault on Westchester
in a statement: «When I spoke to Secretary Castro last month, he said that HUD uses «mission - driven flexibility to work with communities to meet the goals of
programs,» but there is a clear
contradiction between what the Secretary said
in his testimony and the actions of HUD's
federal monitor.
So there is a
contradiction buried
in the report: it recommends the initiation of a
federal research
program into albedo modification but does not give a plausible analysis of the circumstances
in which the solar shield might be deployed.
