NJ's cuts to the Affordable Housing Trust Fund are a big mistake — this is often the only source of funds for small developments. While A3128/S4071 adds $100M in tax credits per year, it’s not a substitute. Both tools are essential to addressing the housing affordability crisis.

Affordable housing isn’t charity — it’s a strategic investment that benefits *everyone*. Read this powerful new op-ed by @BergenNAACP's Jeff Carter on why "a state that turns its back on the unhoused is a state turning its back on itself." 🔥🔥🔥.
