The Apartment Party

The Apartment Party represents the political perspective for the rental housing industry, one that transcends individual party affiliation. Regardless of your personal political views, as someone who works in the rental housing industry, it is essential that our industry, speak loudly and with a unified voice. Members of the “Apartment Party” support elected officials who support the industry, whether by cosponsoring favorable housing legislation or consistently meeting with NAA members and local affiliates to discuss our priority issues. 

The November elections are going to be pivotal for the future of housing policy. As a member of the rental housing industry, and therefore the "Apartment Party," it is vital that you support elected officials who have championed housing policy.

By voting for lawmakers and candidates who have a track record of supporting housing policy that helps our industry, you are ensuring that we will have allies in the halls of Congress and state legislatures across the country.

On entering your voting place, give your name and address to the election officials. If you are properly registered, you will be given a ballot to take to the voting booth. If precinct officials are unable to locate your registration record, you may be asked to vote a provisional ballot.
