MORPAC supports advocacy efforts by raising money to help elect and re-elect candidate to Congress who have an understanding of the real estate finance industry.

MORPAC Is The Industry's Voice. When Congress addresses issues important to real estate finance professionals, its decisions ultimately affect the industry - either for better or worse. It is up to the industry to make its voice heard in the political arena. MORPAC encourages participation in the political process by pooling financial resources to help elect qualified federal candidates whose views and voting records reflect the interests of MBA and its members.
