As medical professionals, Brian Elliott and Laura Even knew COVID-19 was serious before most Americans, as early as February 2020.
But like many others, when the coronavirus hit the East Coast and shutdowns began in the region in mid-March, they thought it would be just two weeks.
The couple originally from the Philly suburbs, but currently completing their medical residencies in Cincinnati had their wedding date scheduled for early May 2020. They thought, maybe, they’d have to cut their guest list down, possibly push the date back a few weeks or reschedule their honeymoon.

Questions arise on eligibility of 2020 bond-financed projects

On Dec, 21, 2020, Congress passed the Consolidated Appropriations Act, a year-end measure that includes a $1.4 trillion omnibus spending bill and a $900 billion Covid-19 relief bill.
Among many other things, the act fixed the 4% low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) applicable percentage at a minimum of 4%. This comes after years of advocacy by LIHTC stakeholders and is expected to generate millions more in equity investments for affordable housing and lead to the production and preservation of tens of thousands more affordable units, with some estimating that an additional 126,000 affordable rental homes will be created or preserved over the next decade as a result of 4% fixed rate.
