Rural Jobs Zone Legislation Introduced in House and Senate

Last week, Senators Wicker (R-MS), Warner (D-VA), Capito (R-WV), and Cardin (D-MD) joined Representatives Sewell (D-AL) and Smith (R-MO) to introduced the Rural Jobs Zones Act of 2019 (H.R. 3538 and S. 2028). The legislation would provide two years and $1 billion in additional NMTC allocation targeted to low-income rural areas, with a 25 percent set-aside for persistently poor or high out-migration counties.
