The Advocacy Scoop is dedicated to peeling back the curtain on the advocacy operation of the world's largest trade association. The real estate sector makes up nearly 20% of the entire U.S. economy, and NAR's advocacy work is critical for housing affordability and protecting private property rights. Listeners will walk away with a better understanding of how NAR's advocacy operation works, its many successes, and how the advocacy team is faring on some of NAR's biggest legislative fights. Shannon and Patrick will also share insights on the 2024 Election, as well as stories you won't hear anywhere else.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-12T08:21:48.153509+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/advocacy-scoop-podcast-6905370"},"episode":{"title":"How 250 Years of Housing Policy Built the American Dream","slug":"how-250-years-of-housing-policy-built-the-american-dream","published_at":"2026-07-01T15:26:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/advocacy-scoop-podcast-6905370/how-250-years-of-housing-policy-built-the-american-dream","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/advocacy-scoop-podcast-6905370","url":"https://156aac76-4a4b-4277-83b8-9da7d9f11607.libsyn.com/how-250-years-of-housing-policy-built-the-american-dream","audio_url":"https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/156aac76-4a4b-4277-83b8-9da7d9f11607/Advocacy_Scoop_S3E7_v2.mp3.mp3?dest-id=4532713","summary":"As America celebrates 250 years, Shannon and Patrick look back at the public policies that helped make homeownership one of the defining pillars of the American Dream.
