The LIHTC Rent Stabilization Exemption Clarification Amendment Act of 2025 aims to amend the District of Columbia Rental Housing Act of 1985 by clarifying that rental units participating in the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program are exempt from the Rent Stabilization Program. Specifically, the bill modifies Section 205(a)(1) of the Rental Housing Act by deleting the existing phrase and inserting a new provision that explicitly includes any rental unit for which the housing provider receives tax credits under the LIHTC program.

This amendment is intended to ensure that properties benefiting from the LIHTC program are not subject to rent stabilization regulations, thereby providing clarity and support for affordable housing initiatives. The changes will be applicable retroactively to July 17, 1985, and the bill will take effect following the Mayor's approval and a 30-day congressional review period.
