Rally Day

 

  • Build relationships with your Texas State Senators & Representatives
  • Lobby important issues crucial to the housing industry
  • Show your support for the association that speaks on your behalf
  • Take a stand on issues that affect your business and our state

 

Rally Day 2011 will be Wednesday, February 23, 2011.  We are looking forward to yet another successful event and are hoping to have more than 1,500 Texas home builders, remodelers, developers and our invaluable associate members ascend those steps at the beautiful State Capitol building on Wednesday, February 23.

The purpose of Rally Day is to deliver our legislative agenda right to the door of our State Representatives and Senators.  As an industry, we must proactively inform elected officials of the consequences of passing over-reaching legislation that can have an overly burdensome and costly effect on Texas home builders and home buyers.  Your state association leadership and staff are confident about the upcoming 82nd Session, but without your strong support and grassroots action, the Texas Association of Builders will not be able to accomplish our goals.

We need your help to continue to protect our entire industry, and ask that you make the commitment to travel to Austin on Wednesday, February 23rd for Rally Day 2011 to be a part of this special—and effective—legislative event.

To participate in Rally Day 2011, please register with your local association.
