Contributions
are not deductible for federal income tax purposes. Contributions to the Texas REALTORS®
Political Action Committee (TREPAC) and the Texas Association of REALTORS®
Federal Political Action Committee (TAR FedPAC)—which makes contributions to
the REALTORS® Political Action Committee (RPAC)—are voluntary and may be used
for political purposes. The amount
indicated is merely a guideline, and you may contribute more or less than the
suggested amount. You may refuse to
contribute without reprisal, and the National Association of REALTORS®, Texas
REALTORS®, and its local associations will not favor or disadvantage anyone
because of the amount contributed. Until
the RPAC annual goal is met, 70% of an individual’s contribution goes to TREPAC
and may be used to support state and local candidates; the remaining 30% is
sent to TAR FedPAC to support federal candidates and is charged against your
limits under 52 U.S.C. 30116. (Exception: 100% of an individual’s contribution
goes to TREPAC if the individual is an employee of an affiliate member of Texas
REALTORS®.) After the RPAC annual goal is met, 100% of an individual’s
contribution goes to TREPAC and may be used to support state and local
candidates. You may contact the Texas REALTORS® political committee
administrator at 800-873-9155 to obtain information about your contributions.
