2007 State & Local Issues Fund Applications Now Available

NAHB created the State & Local Issues Fund to provide support to HBAs in order to successfully deal with a legislative, regulatory or ballot issue that has national significance (i.e. national implications beyond the HBA’s jurisdiction) or is a common industry problem whose resolution could be precedent setting and might not succeed without financial support from NAHB.

The next opportunity for the Committee to review applications will be at the 2007 International Builders Show in Orlando on February 7-10.

Application Deadline Is Jan. 4

If you would like to submit an application for consideration, the deadline is Thursday, Jan. 4.
