NJAA PAC RECEPTION HITS RECORD NUMBER OF ATTENDEES

OVER185 IN ATTENDANCE; INCLUDING 35 LEGISLATORS

(MONROE TOWNSHIP, NJ)- On October 17, 2017 the New Jersey Apartment Association Political Action Committee (NJAA PAC) hosted 35 legislators at its annual PAC Reception in West Orange.

The largest reception of its kind for the multifamily (apartment) industry in New Jersey, legislators from across the state joined 155 NJAA’s members to learn more about the owners, managers, developers and vendors that fuel so many parts of the state’s economy.

NJAA Executive Director David Brogan commented, “The number of legislators at this single event exemplifies the importance of this industry to both the state’s economy and the overall quality of life of New Jerseyans.  Over one million New Jersey residents call apartment living home and the multifamily industry annually contributes billions of dollars in economic activity and tax revenue to our state.  We look forward to working with decision makers on the state’s housing affordability crisis, as well as the preservation and production of affordable housing for low- and moderate-income families.”

The PAC reception, which is held annually, continues to grow each year. This year was no exception, as a record number of legislators and industry leaders were in attendance.
