From local zoning regulations to federal tax policy, elected officials at all levels shape the landscape for the residential construction industry and small businesses. As leaders of the residential construction industry, NAHB is encouraging all members to take part in the election process this year by voting before or on election day, Tuesday, Nov. 5, 2024.
NAHB has several resources for members to learn where to vote available on nahb.org. HBAs and members can visit the Vote for Housing page to download short videos with messages encouraging all those invested in housing affordability to vote this election season.
In addition, NAHB has signs available to download and print that feature two key messages: “We Build, We Vote” on one side and “Let Builders Build” on the flip side. These signs are meant to show that the home building industry and housing play an important role in this election. Use the NAHB hashtags #LetBuildersBuild and #WeBuildWeVote when posting your pictures with signs on social media.
Also, for the upcoming election on Nov. 5, NAHB is again endorsing candidates for the U.S. House and Senate.
