NAHB - National Association of Home Builders
NAHB Remodelers works with members of Congress and federal agencies to help ensure the priorities of remodelers are addressed in federal legislation and regulations. Our successful efforts in mobilizing grassroots efforts on key issues, building successful coalitions, and educating national leaders are evident in tax credit law and regulatory actions that positively impact and protect remodeling businesses throughout the country.

NSHBA - Nebraska State Home Builders Association
In recent years governmental laws and regulations have been a primary factor in increasing the cost of housing in Nebraska. Many Nebraskans have been priced out of the American dream of owning a new home, which is one the most powerful wealth producing tools a family has to secure their future.
What happens to the home building industry has an impact on the American family. Political action and advocacy is accomplished with a full time staff which lobbies legislation affecting the industry and organizes "grass roots" lobbying of senators by the membership on important legislative issues. The NSHBA PAC assists candidates on the State and Local level who are pro-housing candidates and support the industry. We also encourage members to become candidates for public office or to serve on appointed boards and commissions. NSHBA monitors local issues across the state and acts as a clearinghouse of information to address emerging issues.
Attend the Legislative Banquet that is schedule annually in March. You must be a member of your local HBA in order to attend.
