“This legislation alone will not bring an end to the ghetto—but it will provide the opportunity for those persons economically able to escape the ghetto to do so, and to take their families with them. It will assure them free choice in the selection of their housing. For those still condemned by poverty to remain in the ghetto, there will be at least the knowledge that it is poverty—and not their fellow citizens or their Government—that forces them to live in the slums. There will be at least the knowledge that their children will have an opportunity to escape the restrictions and confines of the ghetto pressure cooker.”
