Community Testimonials

The New Markets Tax Credit is one of the most powerful, proven tools for driving private investment into America’s most underserved communities. For over two decades, it has fueled transformative projects—building health centers, schools, small businesses, and infrastructure where traditional financing falls short. This isn’t theory; it’s real-world economic impact. Over $135 billion in private capital. More than 1.2 million jobs. Communities once left behind now thriving. Letting this credit expire would be a devastating step backward. Making the NMTC permanent isn’t just smart policy—it’s a moral and economic imperative.
