 Frontline:     Poverty, Politics & Profit
 Measure 102 will facilitate the use of Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), which were  established during the Reagan Era as a way to further privatize affordable housing. Since its inception, we have seen a net loss in “affordable” housing in the US and increased costs associated with using these tax credits to finance housing for our low to moderate income residents.  Frontline and public television did an expose of this program in May of 2017.  You can watch Poverty, Politics & Profit at:

 Frontline reported just last month that the federal General Accountability Office (GOA) report found:
“that the Low Income Housing Tax Credit program (LIHTC) is vulnerable to fraud because of a lack of oversight and data on costs.”
