Texas REALTORS® Shows Its Strength at the Capitol

About 3,500 REALTORS® from across the state came to Austin this week to participate in REALTOR® Day at the Texas Capitol. The day kicked off with a rally on the south steps of the Texas Capitol, followed by members attending 178 meetings with state legislators to promote the public policy issues of Texas REALTORS®. (Download those positions here.)

The Texas House and Texas Senate each passed a resolution declaring March 22, 2023 to be REALTOR® Day at the Texas Capitol. In the galleries of both chambers, REALTORS® dressed in purple cheered—Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick was even wearing his REALTOR® tie as he recognized the association.

When they weren’t meeting with their legislators, REALTORS® toured the Texas REALTORS® building, enjoyed a barbecue lunch, and met with association staff.
