## Resource

The ROAD to Housing Act is now law—a landmark achievement that caps nearly two years of relentless advocacy by NAR. Powered by 1.4 million members, the campaign included congressional testimony, thousands of meetings, original research, coalition-building, expert policy guidance, and targeted Calls for Action. No organization had a greater impact on getting this landmark legislation across the finish line. Now, the baton passes from NAR's lobbying team to its policy experts as the regulatory process begins. What's next for the law's nearly 50 housing provisions? Plus, while Congress is on August break, Shannon and Patrick reunite in Anaheim to discuss what's next for advocacy—and why, at NAR, there's no recess for the weary.
