Episode Summary

Release Date: 07.30.2025 Hoporenkv Native American Podcast: “Low Income Tax Credits in the Budget Reconciliation Act” Special Guests: Phil Glynn President Travois Adam Rose Director of Partnerships and Growth Travois Episode Description: Join us for a vital discussion on how recent legislative changes to Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) and New Markets Tax Credits (NMTC) can transform housing and economic development in Native American Communities. In this episode of the Hoporenkv Native American Podcast, we sit down with Phil Glynn and Adam Rose from Travois, a leading expert in tribal housing and economic development. Discover how Tribes can leverage LIHTC, exploring its synergy with existing programs like NAHASDA, Competitive IHBG grants, and even Title VI secured loans. They'll also highlight the key distinctions between LIHTC and NAHASDA in terms of populations served, and why the broader national affordable housing crisis underscores the critical importance of these tax credits for all communities, including Tribes. Our guests will shed light on the long-standing advocacy for LIHTC expansion and detail the significant provisions in the recently passed Budget Reconciliation Act. What does this bill mean for housing tax credits, and is the increased allocation permanent? Learn how this will directly and indirectly benefit Tribes and the potential short-term challenges, emphasizing how strategic planning can overcome them. Travois will share insights into the types of projects Tribes have successfully funded with NMTC, whether it's a repayable source, and the typical capital it can provide. They'll address past challenges Tribes have faced in utilizing this resource and delve into the bill's substantial implications for future NMTC availability for Tribes. If your Tribe has a project needing additional capital, this episode is a must-listen for connecting with the experts at Travois. Episode Resource Links: https://travois.com/ Arose@travois.com
