What this bill would do

The Affordable Housing Credit Improvement Act of 2025 updates and expands the low-income housing credit. It increases the money states get for these projects and changes who can qualify to live in the housing. The bill provides extra support for veterans, victims of domestic abuse, and people in rural or Native American areas. It also updates rules for building owners regarding casualty losses and project costs. Finally, it renames the "low-income" housing credit to the "affordable" housing credit.
