NAHB Call-To-Action: Housing Issues
September 2nd, 2009 by Jim HilzNAHB is working to extend the housing tax incentive program and other initiatives to support the housing market. The first-time home buyer tax credit expires on December 1, 2009.
In order to continue to stimulate housing and improve the overall economy, more time is needed. By extending the tax credit, Congress would spur 383,000 additional home sales, including 80,000 housing starts down the road. This stimulus will create nearly 350,000 jobs over the coming year.
Call your members of Congress today toll-free at 866-924-6242 and tell them to extend the deadline for the $8,000 tax credit through November 30, 2010 and make it available to all home buyers. PLEASE CONTACT YOUR MEMBER OF CONGRESS TODAY!
