Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Elimination Act

HR 3540, the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Elimination Act, eliminates the federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) for new housing projects. It directly affects developers and investors who rely on this tax credit to fund affordable housing construction. The bill amends the tax code to end eligibility for the credit on buildings placed in service after the law's effective date. This means no new tax credits will be available for affordable housing developments starting in the next taxable year.
