Advocacy, PAC & Why Your Support Matters | WMFHA Member Advocacy Overview
At the Washington Multifamily Housing Association (WMFHA), advocacy is at the heart of everything we do. Our work ensures that the voices of property management professionals, supplier partners, and the broader multifamily housing community are heard at the state and local levels. By engaging in advocacy, you’re helping protect homes, businesses, and communities across Washington.

Why Advocacy Matters
Effective advocacy ensures balanced and informed housing policy that benefits residents, property teams, and suppliers alike. WMFHA works with elected officials and policymakers to represent the rental housing industry, advocate for practical solutions, and maintain a healthy regulatory environment.
Key advocacy highlights include:
-
Educating lawmakers through the WMFHA PAC, supporting housing-informed candidates and policies
-
Day on the Hill, our annual event where members meet directly with legislators in Olympia
-
Member perspectives, recognizing that both property management professionals and supplier partners bring unique and equally important insights to advocacy efforts
-
Policy-focused PAC support, which protects the future of housing without being political
