UPDATE: HR 4213 Gains 60 Votes Support BUT Does Not Include Housing ProvisionsSubmitted by Robert Dhondrup on 20 Jul 2010 - 12:12pm.
(Updated Information July 20, 2010) The Senate is now on the verge of passing H.R. 4213, which among its many provisions had once included $1B in funding for the National Housing Trust Fund (NHTF) and the extension of the 9 percent Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) exchange program. 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. Capitol Watch: Still Waiting...Submitted by Robert Dhondrup on 21 Jun 2010 - 10:30am.(from Memo to Members from the National Low Income Housing Coalition) After another week of "slimming" and trimming H.R. 4213, the American Jobs and Closing Tax Loopholes Act of 2010, the Senate leadership still had not garnered the 60 votes needed to pass the bill by week's end. After reducing the cost of the overall bill, Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) called for a cloture vote on Thursday, June 17. The vote failed 56-40. As business closed on Friday, the Senate passed a short-term fix to prevent cuts to Medicare payments to doctors as a stand-alone bill.
