With Congress set to deliberate on the size and scope of a significant tax package over the next several weeks, your advocacy is again needed to send a powerful message to Congress that the time to improve the historic tax credit is now!

House and Senate champions recently introduced the bipartisan Historic Tax Credit Growth and Opportunity Act (HTC-GO; H.R.2941/S.1459).

The new bill brings more value to the HTC, makes the credit easier to use, and encourages rehabilitation of smaller projects and projects in rural areas.

The Historic Tax Credit has turned bygone schools, factories, and hotels into thriving places that boost local economies and preserve our past. And with improvements, the HTC will help produce even more housing options for all income levels.

As we speak, Congress is preparing to mark up and vote on a large tax bill. Rehabilitation and reuse advocates have a rare opportunity to make changes to the historic tax credit incentive and make it work even better for our communities. But Congress needs to hear from you!

A simple email from you can help modernize and improve the Historic Tax Credit. It’s quick. It matters. And it works.

Reach out to your members of Congress now, urge them to support the Historic Tax Growth and Opportunity Act of 2025 (H.R.2941/S.1459), and request the inclusion of HTC-GO bill provisions in the emerging tax bill.
