The Alabama REALTORS® Political Action Committee (ARPAC), the political arm of the Alabama Association of REALTORS®, has made its endorsement of candidates for the primary elections to be held on June 5, 2018. The list includes candidates for Constitutional, Statewide, Legislative, Judicial, Public Service Commission and State Board of Education offices. The candidates endorsed exhibit a commitment to home ownership, private property rights, economic growth and development.
“We are proud to endorse each one of these candidates,” said Kim Hallmark, ARPAC Trustees Chair. “They recognize the vital role REALTORS® play in promoting our state and helping grow thriving, safe and sustainable communities.”
“These candidates understand what Alabama needs to continue to grow, to create jobs and opportunities and reach its full potential,” said Jeremy Walker, Alabama REALTORS® Chief Executive Officer. “This pro-business, pro-growth focus will help advance the real estate market, and in turn, provide opportunities for our members to help more Alabamians experience home ownership and everything our great state has to offer.”
The Alabama Association of REALTORS® (AAR) is the largest statewide organization of real estate professionals comprised of over 15,000 members from 26 boards and 1,200 real estate companies.
