During this difficult economic period, the ICSC Office of Global Public Policy is focused on restoring capital flows to the retail real estate industry and bringing shoppers back to our centers. To that end, ICSC has been conducting meetings with Congress, Treasury and other real estate trade groups to lay out the issues and concerns.
This week ICSC sent the letter to Congress with suggestions for provisions that may help liquidity in the commercial real estate lending markets and stimulate increased consumption in our shopping centers. While we continue to advocate on your behalf in Washington, DC. Please take a look at the attached letter and let your elected officials know that there are things that they can do to help businesses in their communities. icsc-letter
