Texas REALTORS® 2021 Legislative Priorities -
Here's How You Can Prepare
|
|
The 87th session of the Texas Legislature convened Tuesday under a great deal of uncertainty. Not only has COVID-19 brought economic and budgetary issues to the state, but it has also created questions about how legislators and committees will meet to conduct business while following normal safety guidelines. Public health restrictions will mean the normally-packed Capitol may be nearly empty, but your active participation will be more important than ever.
Here are four things you can do to get ready:
-
Learn the issues! The Texas REALTORS ® 2021 Legislative Priorities is your first stop to see the areas of interest the association will monitor during the 2021 session. Texas REALTORS® identified these priority issues after a member-driven process through the Public Policy Committees, Legislative Management Team, and Executive Board.
-
Stay informed about what is happening during the session by subscribing to Legislative Liaison, a weekly newsletter sent from the Texas REALTORS® Governmental Affairs Department that explains activities during the legislative session from a real estate perspective. Just go to texasrealestate.com/liaison, make sure the Legislative Liaison box is checked, then click “Save.”
-
Sign up for REALTOR® Party Mobile Alerts. Did you know you can advocate for REALTOR® issues by text? Join by texting txrealtors to 30644. Visit texasrealestate.com/text for details.
-
Act as a liaison to your legislator by joining our Legislative Contact Teams. These REALTORS® deliver our message directly to their lawmakers. Contact Casey Lee more details. casey@fourriversrealtors.com

Texas REALTORS® Asks: Does the Coronavirus Relief Bill Include Rental Assistance? |
|
Yes, the Coronavirus Relief Bill provides $25 billion to the states through September 30, 2022, for rental assistance. Each state's allocation will be based on population, but no state will receive less than $200 million. A tenant can qualify for up to 15 months of rental assistance, which includes past due and future rent, utilities, and other expenses related to housing.
