Welcome to GHAR's Government Affairs Web site! The mission of the GHAR government affairs program is to advance the interests of its members at all levels of government, both legislative and regulatory, to increase the size and presence of the REALTORS political action committee (RPAC), to enhance the association’s ability to influence government through an active grassroots network of members and to increase public awareness through public relations programs and campaigns.

The decisions made by elected officials at the county, state and national level potentially have a huge impact on the real estate profession. GHAR is committed to being involved in that process to ensure that our members’ interests are represented. Please take a moment to review the information on this Web site and learn about the important issues facing REALTORS and how you can get involved. _____________________________________________________________

Register and Get Out The Vote 

GHAR and PAR encourage REALTORS to register to vote. If you are a first time voter, have recently moved or changed your name, you may need to register or re-register to vote. The deadline to register is Monday, Oct. 6. Along with casting a vote for president in the General Election on Tuesday, Nov. 4, there are several local and state elections across the commonwealth. In the General Assembly, there are 27 open seats with 88 incumbent state lawmakers facing challengers. There are also races for attorney general, auditor general and state treasurer. It is important to back candidates who support private property rights and the real estate industry. To register to vote, click here: http://www.realtoractioncenter.com/electoralservices/voter-registration/
