Greetings,
Congress has passed, and President
Obama just signed moments ago, a bill that both extends and
expands the Homebuyer Tax Credit. All three of our local
Congressmen (Altmire, Doyle, and Murphy), as well as both PA
Senators Casey and Specter, voted in favor of this!
With such a sunny weekend, and no
Steeler game to compete with, RAMP wants its’ members to
have the latest information available as they meet with
clients:
·
Please
review and print out this
chart that compares the current tax credit, as well as the
new extension and expansion of it.
·
As you
familiarize yourself with the new provisions, please also visit
and print out these very
helpful Q & A’s on the matter.
Thank YOU to all RAMP members
who took part in the “Call for Action” that helped
to make this moment happen! RAMP’s advocacy
continues to work for you on the local, state, and national
levels, We are proud to be part of the effort that moved this
crucial piece of legislation in a time when so many other issues
have been demanding our Legislators time and attention.
Please spread the good news in your office, and
your community!
