The Importance of Participating in Elections

-


In case you unaware (said in jest) we’re smack in the middle of a highly contentious presidential election season. Small-business owners, especially, should vote because politicians’ decisions directly impact the economic landscape and regulatory environment in which they operate. Voting allows citizen business owners to influence policies that affect factors such as taxation, labor laws, environmental regulations, and infrastructure development. By participating in the electoral process, business owners as housing providers can ensure that their interests are represented and that their businesses can thrive in a stable and supportive environment.

Charles Tassell COO National REIA

The National Real Estate Investors Association strongly encourages participation in elections – from those who act as local election judges to those active in their political party and as candidates for office! Citizens of the United States of America have a civic duty to vote and support the process.  Members are encouraged, at a minimum, to fulfill their civic duty by being informed voters.  With the surplus of information, misinformation and outright lies everywhere, here at National REIA we try to provide a focused and distilled – yet cited – perspective on the federal candidate’s housing-related policy proposals.

The below “POTUS Candidate – Compare & Contrast” reflects the positions of the candidates related to housing, as detailed from their campaigns and their public statements, with citation links to the source.  It is essential that voters make informed voting decisions, I hope you find this helpful and encourage you to vote in this election.  Additionally, please share the link to the PDF or the JPG with your friends, colleagues and business acquaintances.

“One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors.” – Plato
