NACo: Extend the Build America Bonds program

NACo Executive Director Larry Naake co-authored this piece which was published in The Hill's Congress blog regarding the Build America Bonds program.

NACo argues that Build America Bonds have been a success. They have brought new investors to the municipal market and have increased demand for traditional tax-exempt bonds so that market works better.

NACo, along with the Bond Dealers of America, the National Association of State Auditors, Comptrollers and Treasurers, and the National Association of Bond Lawyers are urging Congress to refine and extend the Build America Bonds program.
