| Call for Action: Tell Congress to Stop Taking Money from Homeowners! |
| The House of Representatives Transportation and Infrastructure Committee is considering legislation to reauthorize surface transportation programs. One proposal would use Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac’s credit risk guarantee fees (g-fees) to fund transportation programs. NAR strongly believes that taking g-fees would also prevent Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac from effectively managing their risk. Take action now to prevent Congress from placing an unnecessary long-term burden on American homeowners! |

| Local Florida Association Prevents Negative Impacts of Historic Preservation |
| When proposed ordinance changes would have made it significantly easier for homes to be designated as “historic” and potentially increased the cost of property and flood insurance and property upgrades, the 6,000-member Pinellas REALTOR® Organization (PRO) used the Issues Mobilization Program to take action. |
