INDUSTRY DEFENSE FUND

BOMA International's member-driven Industry Defense Fund is instrumental in giving a voice to the commercial real estate industry helping achieve critical advocacy successes. Its purpose is to ensure that adequate funds are available at the federal, state and local levels for wide-ranging advocacy issues that may impact BOMA members. The IDF is administered by an oversight committee, and applications are accepted on a rolling basis.

The Industry Defense Fund (IDF) video provides an overview of this important, member-driven program. It includes background on the IDF process and history, and it concludes with testimonials from some of our BOMA local associations. This video is a particularly good resource for sharing with colleagues and showing at meetings to illustrate the value of the BOMA network.

BOMA WA PAC

BOMA WA (PAC) Political Action Committee enables BOMA’s advocacy team to raise money to re-elect political candidates for State and Local office that know and understand – and support – real estate’s issues.

Whether or not you are politically “active”, there is no better way to support the candidates and the issues that impact your professional and personal lives. Your contribution, combined with the donations from your BOMA colleagues from across the State, will help ensure that BOMA has the power to back those members of the State Legislature who show leadership and commitment to commercial real estate issues. So let your voice be heard!
