Legislative Session Updates
Thank you for supporting the recent Calls for Action issued by NOMAR and LR! Thanks to your response, SB 162 passed the Senate and is on its way to the House for consideration. While the two tax issues mentioned in LR's alert aren't quite gone, the opposition to them is quickly growing. Please be on the lookout for additional Calls for Action as session continues and be sure you're signed up to receive CFA text alerts by texting REALTORS to 30644.
Above, NOMAR Members meet with Congressman Richmond to discuss affordable flood insurance and sustainable homeownership.
