Description

The Government Affairs Committee keeps members informed of local, state, and national legislation. In addition, political involvement is promoted through "Call to Action" alerts, support of political campaigns, political forums, and lobbying. The committee also contacts government officials regarding support or defeat of proposed or pending legislation on local, state, and national levels. The Committee also interviews candidates and seeks recommendations from the membership regarding candidate endorsements, as well as works with Texas REALTORS® in promoting better government. 

The Texas REALTORS® Political Action Committee (TREPAC) includes all real estate professionals who contribute to the state PAC. The committee focuses the efforts of REALTORS® and Affiliates working to protect private property rights for residential and commercial REALTORS® and all private property owners. In addition, the committee raises funds to support the election of candidates at the local, state, and national levels, as well as organizes special events to ensure member investments are sufficient to reach CCAR's TREPAC quota.
