The Iowa Housing Partnership (“IHP”) commends Governor Reynolds’ leadership on affordable housing, by proposing bold, new steps in helping Iowa meet a significant unmet demand for quality affordable housing. Affordable housing is key to expanding economic growth for Iowa and helping Iowa recover from the impact of COVID-19 and derecho-affected communities. We support the following proposed initiatives:
State Housing Tax Credit Program
Workforce Housing Tax Credit
Redevelopment Credit
These proposals give Iowa the “tools in the toolbelt” to do more to help Iowans across the state. Affordable housing is not just about building units – it is about building communities and helping them thrive – by helping Iowans live in safe, affordable housing. We are excited to work with Governor Reynolds and the Iowa Legislature to see what comes next.
Now is a great time to tell your legislator why supporting affordable housing is important to you and your organization! Attending a forum is a great way to stay connected with your legislator and with many forums being held virtually, it’s even more convenient! Please remember to always keep public health and COVID-19 safety in mind. Here is a list of upcoming forums:
