“I contribute yearly to RPAC because I support the goal of homeownership. • I do my very best as a REALTOR® to support my clients. I rely upon those representing our profession through RPAC to work with local, state and federal lawmakers to support our buyers, sellers and REALTORS®. It is important to fund those efforts and ensure that our interests and our clients’ interests are protected.”

– CATHERINE CZUBA

GCAAR would like to recognize and thank our newest National Association of REALTORS ® RPAC Hall of Fame members, H. Fred Kendrick and Chris Suranna. The RPAC Hall of Fame recognizes dedicated REALTORS ® , members and staff who have supported RPAC and the REALTOR ® Party over the years, and who have invested at least $25,000.

“As a real estate professional and a REALTOR ® , I have always believed in the importance of supporting my local, state and national REALTOR ® associations. That support has included serving on GCAAR and NAR committees, and it has also meant a long-term financial commitment to RPAC. As REALTORS ® , we don’t always know what actions go on behind the scenes at City Council meetings or U.S. House and Senate hearings that affect the real estate industry. However, the professionals who work on our behalf represent our interests every day in these venues. With my RPAC contribution, I am proud to support our REALTOR ® lobbyists and staff, as well as the political candidates who go to bat for us every day.” – H. FRED KENDRICK

“As a past DC Representative on the NAR RPAC Participation and Major Investor Committees, I have found that investing in RPAC means different things to every REALTOR ® .

A common misconception is that all of your investment goes to NAR. That is not true. In fact, only a very small portion goes to NAR. All the remaining investment stays local and is used by our state and local associations to fund efforts to secure the property rights in our local markets.

Both REALTORS ® and GCAAR have been super successful in asking elected officials to change the Tenant Opportunity to Purchase Act and reconsider property tax initiatives.

I am proud to invest in RPAC and hope all REALTORS ® will do the same. The minimum NAR Fair Share is $15. If you can invest more, by all means do so, as all of our investments when pooled together can do great things in protecting property rights and our livelihoods as REALTORS ® .” – CHRIS SURANNA

GCAAR would like to also recognize and thank our newest Maryland REALTORS ® RPAC Hall of Fame member, Randall Rothstein. Maryland REALTORS ® recognizes members who have invested $15,000 to RPAC over the years as Hall of Fame members.

“As RPAC contributors, Paragon Title and Escrow Company and I are regularly reminded about the tireless support and unending efforts of the selfless RPAC members across our state in support of import ant housing and real estate issues. We look at our RPAC contributions as valuable investments that have yielded great returns in the form of essential work done and goals accomplished.” – RANDALL ROTHSTEIN
