ASHA Joins Real Estate Coalition Supporting Workforce Housing Tax Credit Act
On May 6, the American Seniors Housing Association (ASHA) joined a broad coalition of national real estate organizations in supporting the bipartisan Workforce Housing Tax Credit Act. In the letter to Representatives Jimmy Panetta (D-CA) and Mike Carey (R-OH), the coalition highlighted the growing affordability challenges facing middle-income renters and emphasized the urgent need to expand housing supply. The proposal would create a new tax credit to incentivize development of workforce housing for households that earn too much to qualify for subsidies but still struggle with rising rents. ASHA and its partners believe this legislation is a critical step toward addressing the nation’s housing shortage and strengthening housing stability for essential workers and middle-income families.
