CDFA Legislative Briefing - September 22, 2021

CDFA hosted this Legislative Briefing on September 22 to provide updates on the status of the infrastructure bill and next steps. Several CDFA legislative priorities have been approved by the House Committee on Ways and Means to include in the Build Back Better Act. Notably, the bill includes CDFA's Modernizing Agricultural and Manufacturing Bonds Act. It also includes the restoration of Advance Refunding Bonds, a Bond Category for Electric Vehicle Charging Stations, a permanent extension to the New Markets Tax Credits, and much more. CDFA originally made these recommendations in our Policy Priorities for the Biden-Harris Administration.
