FPC Attendance at the June REALTORS® Legislative Meetings
FPCs are expected to attend the annual REALTOR® Legislative Meetings (June 13-18), even though the House will not be in session that week. Your role remains essential. As you know, meetings with congressional staff are just as important as meetings with members themselves—often laying the groundwork for follow-up conversations and advancing our priorities in meaningful ways.
Additionally, the Senate will be in session, so there will be opportunities for direct engagement with Senate offices during the week.
Your presence in Washington is critical to sustaining NAR’s year-round advocacy efforts, regardless of the House schedule.
How Do Hill Visits Help Shape Real Estate Policies and Benefit Consumers?
Legislators appreciate when REALTOR® constituents take time to visit the nation’s capital. A visit to Capitol Hill is an effective tool to build relationships, and act as a resource to explain our position when Congress is considering an important piece of legislation.
During past visits, REALTORS® have talked to their legislators about a myriad of issues affecting homeowners, including the reauthorization of flood insurance, enhancements to home inventory and fair housing, the investment deadline extension for qualified opportunity zones, and additions to the Equality Act under Fair Housing.
Who Goes On Hill Visits?
Invited REALTOR® members, led by their Federal Political Coordinators (FPCs), will head to Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., to fight for private property and homeownership rights. GADs, AEs and state presidents also generally attend these meetings.
