ACTION ALERT: Sign-on Letter Calling on Congress to Include the Housing Credit in Tax Extenders

Urge Legislators to Include the Housing Credit in Tax Extenders

We have a small window of opportunity to advocate for Congress to take action on the Housing Credit this year. As legislators negotiate final year-end legislation, it is critical that advocates weigh in on expanding resources to address the increasing shortage of affordable rental housing.

ACTION will send a sign-on letter to congressional leadership and the House and Senate Tax committees to demonstrate why including the Housing Credit in end-of-year legislation is essential. Existing ACTION members will automatically be added to the list of signatories; if you wish to opt out of signing this letter, please email us at actioncampaign@enterprisecommunity.org.

Unsure if you are an ACTION member? Check the membership page!

Opt-outs for members who don’t wish to sign due by 11/18/22 at 12 pm, ET.
