Advocacy

YOUR VOICE IN TALLAHASSEE AND WASHINGTON

We represent and protect mortgage professionals by monitoring legislative and regulatory issues that impact the mortgage industry and advocating for policies that support our members, their businesses, and our consumers.

Why Advocacy Matters

Advocacy ensures:

  • Mortgage professionals have a seat at the table
  • Regulations remain balanced and practical
  • Consumer protection aligns with responsible lending
  • The industry continues to support housing access and affordability

What We Advocate For

Our advocacy efforts focus on issues that directly affect our members and the mortgage industry as a whole, including:

  • Fair and transparent mortgage regulations
  • Support for independent mortgage professionals and brokers
  • Policies that promote responsible lending and consumer protection
  • Housing access, affordability, and market stability
  • Clear and consistent compliance standards

How We Advocate

Our association actively engages in advocacy by:

  • Monitoring local, state, and federal legislative activity
  • Working alongside industry partners and policymakers
  • Participating in meetings, discussions, and advocacy initiatives
  • Providing feedback and insight on proposed legislation and regulations

Member Involvement

Members play an important role in shaping the future of the mortgage industry. We offer opportunities for members to:

  • Stay informed on key advocacy issues

Participation is always voluntary, and involvement levels can be tailored to each member’s interests and availability.

Annual Lobby Days

Each year, representatives from our association travel to Tallahassee to meet directly with elected officials, regulators, and policymakers on issues impacting mortgage professionals and the housing industry.

These annual Lobby Days provide an opportunity to share real-world insights from the field, discuss current legislative priorities, and ensure the voice of mortgage professionals is represented in policy discussions. By engaging face-to-face with decision-makers, we help advocate for practical, balanced policies that support responsible lending, housing access, and a strong mortgage industry.
