Very good article in @azcentral today that spotlights how a loophole in the #LIHTC program drains approximately 10k rental homes each year. LISC calls on Congress to repeal this loophole to preserve affordable rental housing: azcentral.com/story/news/loc…

Jason Edwards wanted to live in his affordable rental for a long time. But federal law upended his plan. Many Arizonans have had similar ordeals.

.@JulietteRihl has written an excellent article highlighting a loophole in the #LIHTC program that causes the loss of around 10,000 rental homes every year. To preserve affordable rental housing, LISC urges Congress to address + eliminate this loophole. Thanks for the tag!
