The Washington Multi-Family Housing Association (WMFHA) is proud to announce its endorsed candidates for the 2026 general election.
Washington continues to face a significant housing shortage, and the decisions made by policymakers at every level of government directly affect our ability to build, operate and preserve the homes our communities need.
This election, WMFHA is supporting candidates who understand that addressing housing affordability requires increasing housing supply, encouraging continued investment and pursuing policies that are practical, balanced and workable for both residents and housing providers.
Our 2026 endorsements reflect WMFHA's commitment to working with policymakers from both parties who are willing to engage constructively with the rental housing industry and advance solutions to Washington's housing challenges.
Our focus: Supporting leaders who recognize the importance of housing supply, responsible policy and a strong environment for housing investment across Washington.

Supporting Housing Leaders
WMFHA evaluates candidates based on their understanding of rental housing, willingness to engage with housing providers, approach to increasing housing supply and commitment to policies that support healthy and sustainable communities.
This year's endorsed candidates include longtime housing champions as well as emerging leaders who have demonstrated a willingness to listen, work across differences and consider the real-world consequences of housing policy.
WMFHA looks forward to working with these candidates and continuing to advocate for policies that make it possible to build more homes, preserve existing rental housing and expand housing opportunities throughout Washington.
