Political Action 13
Thanks to those below for your commitment to organized real estate and the REALTOR® Action Fund! Now more than ever, it will be a priority to support officeholders and candidates who understand and support real estate, homeownership and to remain competitive in the election arena. Over 35% of all proposed legislation introduced in Sacramento each year impacts REALTORS®.
CANDIDATE PACs
The California Real Estate PAC (CREPAC) and your local Board of REALTORs® PAC (LCRC, formerly named BORPAC), and the REALTORS® PAC (RPAC), are your REALTOR® survival plan. One of the most important services organized real estate provides is representation in the halls of government.
ISSUE PACs
The Issues Mobilization Political Action Committee (IMPAC), is a non-profit, bi-partisan committee of REALTORS®. Its purpose is to support or oppose state and local ballot measures. IMPAC also supports lobbying advocacy and educational efforts that further the mission of your local association and CAR. Funds collected for each board are held in trust by IMPAC in an account reserved for your Association’s exclusive use.
RPAC
Since 1969 RPAC has been promoting the election of pro-REALTOR® candidates across the United States. On the national level, we give our money to those in Congress who both understand and support REALTOR® issues. We look to build the future by putting RPAC dollars in places that will help advance the interests of Real Estate professionals. RPAC is the only political group in the country organized for REALTORS®, run by REALTORS® and exists solely to further issues important to REALTORS®. Think of your RPAC contribution as an investment. The best investment you’ll ever make in your business and yourself. RPAC is your best insurance against poorly designed small business and commercial real estate legislation. If you’re not giving your fair share to RPAC, you’re not doing all you can to better your profession, your business, and yourself.
