Senate Stalls On HR 4213Submitted by Robert Dhondrup on 8 Jul 2010 - 2:17pm.
(from A.C.T.I.O.N) The Senate failed in its efforts to advance H.R. 4213, which among its many provisions included the extension of the 9 percent Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) exchange program, the GO Zone LIHTC placed in service deadline, the LIHTC exchange program to apply to disaster LIHTC, and the New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) program and allowing the NMTC to be taken against alternative minimum tax. Capitol Watch: Prospects Dim for Action on Extender Bill Before Fourth of July RecessSubmitted by Robert Dhondrup on 1 Jul 2010 - 1:33pm.(UPDATE) Senate leaders introduced another pared-down version of H.R. 4213, the American Jobs and Closing Tax Loopholes Act of 2010 (the extender bill), on Thursday, June 24. Funding for the National Housing Trust Fund and the several Low Income Housing Tax Credit provisions remained in the bill. Unfortunately, another cloture vote on June 24 failed 57-41, signaling that even the new version would not attract the 60 votes required to move the bill forward. Most likely the bill will not be taken up again until after the July 4 recess. 5/28 Update: National Housing Trust Fund Passes House Vote TodaySubmitted by Robert Dhondrup on 28 May 2010 - 1:41pm.(from the National Low Income Housing Coalition) Today, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill (H.R. 4213) that includes $1.065 billion for the National Housing Trust Fund. This was a hard fought victory that was only possible because you made sure that Members of the House knew how important the National Housing Trust Fund is to your communities. Thank you.
