The National Housing Conference (NHC) strongly supports passage of H.R. 2, the Moving Forward Act, which House Democratic leadership outlined in text released this week. The bill provides important measures that will facilitate the production of affordable housing across the country, including $100 billion in new funding for affordable housing, a new tax credit for investment in lower cost homes, and an increase in the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) allocation by more than 60%.
