Get involved with DMAR’s advocacy efforts
We encourage you to become more involved in the Association’s advocacy efforts. Here are a few ways you can help protect property rights and promote homeownership:
JOIN DMAR’s GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS COMMITTEE (GAC)
The GAC meets the first Thursday of each month at 10:00 AM to discuss local, state, and national issues that impact the Real Estate industry. Committee content includes a variety of informative speakers including mayors, council members, city managers, and prominent developers. The GAC also reviews and takes policy positions on a variety of hot button topics such as affordable housing and zoning.
►► To attend and/or receive GAC meeting agendas, email Peter Wall, DMAR’s Government Affairs Director at peterw@crlassociates.com.
INVEST IN THE REALTORS® POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE (RPAC)
This is huge. In Colorado, your RPAC investments support elected officials who understand that an 8% tax on each and every one of your commissions would be detrimental to you and the real estate industry. This is just one of the many issues where RPAC serves as an investment in your livelihood.
