TREC Attends RECsTX Lobby Day

In early February, Members of TREC PAC and the Public Policy Committee met with elected officials in Austin to advocate on behalf of the commercial real estate industry just as the 88th Texas Legislature began.

Recapping the 88th Texas Legislature

TREC’s advocacy efforts, combined with our peers within Real Estate Councils of Texas (RECsTX) and other partners throughout the state, helped deliver some big wins for the commercial real estate industry during the session.
