Advocacy/RPAC
What is RPAC?
RPAC is a voluntary political action committee whose membership consists of REALTORS® interested in actively and effectively protecting the real estate industry and the dream of homeownership by participating in government affairs at the local, state, and federal levels.
The money to accomplish this comes from voluntary contributions made by REALTORS®. These are not members’ dues; this is money given freely by REALTORS®. RPAC doesn’t buy votes. RPAC enables REALTORS® to support candidates that support the issues that are important to their profession and livelihood.
The REALTOR® Party needs your support, both in responding to calls-to-action and investing in RPAC. Now more than ever, it is critical for REALTORS® to come together and speak with one voice. From city hall to the state house to the US Capitol, our elected officials are making decisions that have a huge impact on the bottom line of you and your customers. Through your support, the REALTOR® Party represents your interests.
