Low Income Investment Fund (LIIF) “LIIF uses its expertise and national lending platform to help fill a critical gap in the affordable housing financing ecosystem, through KHA – Calvert Impact is proud to collaborate with such an innovative and trusted partner like LIIF.” - Kevin Fanfoni, Investments Director.

Today, LIIF urges the Senate to pass the bipartisan Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act of 2024. This critical legislation will lift 500K children out of poverty and strengthen Housing Credit provisions to help produce or preserve over 200,000 #affordablehomes.

The Senate is expected to consider a $78 billion tax bill that includes measures to expand the low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) program Thursday. bit.ly/4dthsWZ David Gasson Chuck Schumer
