GOVERNMENT RELATIONS

NYBUILD PAC

 

NYSBA PAC is bipartisan and contributes to pro-housing and pro-business candidates to help elect them to serve in the NYS legislature.  NYSBA advocates on issues related to New York State's housing industry to focus on the impact specific regulations and rules can have on the home building industry.  The NYSBA PAC also collaborates with legislators to inform them of the effects specific legislation can have on the building industry.

 

As a leader in the industry, you should consider contributing to the NYSBA PAC and becoming a member of the Empire Club at NYSBA.  Inquiries should be made to Natalia Benedetti at nbenedetti@nysba.com

Government Relations Committee

 

NYSBA compliments its legislative agenda with its Government Relations Committee, which focuses on key state legislation, agencies, boards, and councils that have regulatory authority over residential construction and land use activities in New York State.  NYSBA recognizes that the regulatory landscape in NYS continues to be a significant obstacle to meeting the state's housing needs.  NYSBA members have first-hand experience dealing with the numerous state and local agencies with regulatory jurisdiction over the homebuilding and land use process.
