REALTOR® and Local Association Legislative Request Form
All requests must be submitted using the following form. Requests received through any other means will be returned to the sender so that they can be resubmitted through this form.
Virginia REALTORS® will consider legislative requests that align with the association’s stated purpose and are within the scope of the association’s governing beliefs and standing positions.
VAR Government Relations staff will review all submissions against our current standing positions, state laws, and Virginia Real Estate Board regulations prior to sending to the Public Policy Committee for review. The Virginia REALTORS® Board of Directors has final approval of all legislative agenda items.
REALTOR® sponsors, along with their Local Association Executive (or the AE’s designee), and local government affairs directors may be invited to explain their legislative request before the Virginia REALTORS® Public Policy Committee during the Legislative Agenda Review Process.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a request form for a state legislative (law) change or addition to be included in the state legislative agenda. If there are multiple changes or new state laws you would like to suggest, each proposal must be submitted separately. Requests for the Virginia REALTORS® to create state association education, new initiatives, studies, or provide letters of support for federal initiatives do not fall within the legislative agenda. These requests should be sent to the attention of the President by separate letter or e-mail through the office of the CEO.
