Testimony before the House Subcommittee on Housing and Community Opportunity
Cleveland, Ohio - June 16, 2008

My name is Tina Skeldon Wozniak and I am the President of the Board of Lucas County Commissioners. I am here today on behalf of the 450,000 residents of my county, just about 100 miles from here.
