LARPAC is the political action committee of the Louisiana REALTORS, serving as the voice in politics for our membership. Through our statewide network of REALTOR members, we are able to effectively communicate and influence lawmaking activities at the state and federal level. Your LARPAC dollars have recently been used at the federal level to preserve the mortgage interest deduction, to reduce capital gains taxes and to streamline and clarify wetland policies. In the state of Louisiana, LARPAC funds helped to protect commercial real estate commissions, reduce liability by defining agency relationships, prevent sales tax on your commissions and protect private property rights. At the local level, these dollars helped to prevent additional transfer fees and combat signage ordinances. Additionally, LARPAC has sponsored political forums and debates, hosted legislative receptions and worked with other business organizations to take public positions on issues affecting the community. Funds are also available to local Member Boards for the purpose of addressing key real estate issues in their area that impact the industry, and supporting candidates who support housing and real estate issues. Your support of LARPAC is important! To contribute or receive more information about LARPAC, contact Norman Morris at 1-800-266-8538. |
