Meet with your Legislators
Have you met with your Legislator recently? Kevin Logue, IREM’s Vice President of the Legislative and Public Policy committee, was granted an opportunity to sit and chat with Congressman Soto of Florida’s 9th Congressional district. Here’s what he had to say about his meeting with Congressman Soto. “So grateful for the Congressman’s time and support of IREM’s public policy priorities. Congressman Soto is very interested in H.R. 6880, which is the companion bill to the Senate 1820 Choice in Affordable Housing Act; both supported by IREM.” The bills would increase the number of landlords participating in the Housing Choice Voucher program.
Meeting with your Legislators allows your issues and voice to be heard. IREM Government Affairs staff is here to guide you through the process.
