Congressman Gabe Vasquez

U.S. Senators Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.), Ben Ray Luján (D-N.M.), and Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) led 12 Democratic senators in reintroducing the First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit Act, legislation that aims to support middle-class Americans purchasing their first home. The bill would establish a refundable tax credit worth up to 10 percent of a home’s purchase price – up to a maximum of $15,000 – for first-time homebuyers.
