Through our grassroots network, we call on more than 54,000 industry members to contact Congress concerning critical issues in our focused national agenda. Read more.

The 2011 LRP booklet covers hot-button topics including reform of the Government-Sponsored Enterprises from the multifamily housing perspective, apartment energy and efficiency incentives, and a unified call to rebalance our housing policy and make rental housing a priority.
