With Wisconsin’s election season underway and the August 11 primary approaching, candidates are spending more time meeting with voters, business leaders, and organizations across the state. This is an important opportunity for the commercial real estate industry to engage in those conversations through CARW’s Commercial Conduit and Direct Giver Program.
The Commercial Conduit and Direct Giver Program helps ensure the commercial real estate industry’s voice is represented in discussions about issues that affect our members—from property rights and economic development to housing, infrastructure, permitting, taxation, and creating a predictable environment for investment. By supporting candidates who value a strong business climate, we help build relationships with policymakers before important decisions are made.
One of the best ways to get involved is by attending a local candidate fundraiser or meet-and-greet. These events provide an opportunity to connect directly with candidates, share your perspective on commercial real estate, and demonstrate that our industry is engaged and invested in Wisconsin’s future.
Whether you’re a longtime Commercial Conduit or Direct Giver investor or are considering participating for the first time, your involvement makes a difference. Every relationship we build and every conversation we have strengthens our industry’s ability to educate policymakers and advocate for policies that support investment, job creation, and thriving communities.
