The political history of and prospects for reauthorizing new markets

Benson F. Roberts

Community Development Innovation Review, 2005, issue 1, 21-32

Abstract: Mr. Roberts, the Local Initiatives Support Corporation?s Vice President for Policy, is at the forefront of efforts to renew the NMTC program. This article combines his recent political experience with an analysis of the political history of the NMTC program. The across-the-political-spectrum popularity of the program, combined with its growing effectiveness, good reputation, and adept lobbying efforts bode well for a successful renewal fight that is currently underway in Congress.
