Dunno, that's the legislatures job. They can't make programs in a vacuum without budget, it is up to them. Obvi no one wants to be the unpopular one to raise taxes, but sometimes you have no choice if you can't shift money around.

Don't disagree but the problem is budget for housing attorneys is pretty low on the list for not just politicians but really the taxpayers.

If you ask 100 people on the street random for their top 3 concerns, I doubt anyone would say "budget for housing attorneys"
