Expand affordable housing through the Housing Credit

LaHood plans to introduce updated legislation in the next Congress to expand access to the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit, reduce barriers that delay projects, and give communities facing serious housing challenges tools to build more homes. He says the credit should help increase affordable housing, including in rural communities, while leaving decisions to local developers and communities.

Context: He does not provide the updated bill’s text or specify how it would change eligibility or credit amounts. Reported in a 2026 candidate interview/guide; the exact original statement date is not established.
