About ALTA®'s Government Affairs and Grassroots Programs
ALTA®'s grassroots network works directly with the government affairs department to ensure that ALTA®'s positions are heard by Congress and government agencies before they enact legislation and regulations. ALTA® members visit their Members of Congress each year during the ALTA® Federal Conference in Washington; invite Members of Congress to visit their offices; and send letters to Members on ALTA® issues.
ALTA®'s Action Center
Visit ALTA®'s Action Center anytime to find and contact your elected officials, review election results, and learn more about the issues that are important to you.
TIPAC: The Title Industry Political Action Committee
The Title Industry Political Action Committee (TIPAC) is the collective voice of the title insurance industry and the official PAC of the American Land Title Association®. TIPAC enables us to build and develop relationships with Members of Congress, while educating and advocating on behalf of our industry.
ALTA® members who participate in TIPAC are very influential in the nation’s political process. TIPAC pools your contribution with contributions from other title professionals. The money is then used to help elect and re-elect Members of Congress who support the title industry. TIPAC is the most effective tool we have to make sure our concerns are heard and our interests are protected in Washington, D.C.

Become A Legislative Contact
In the title industry, success depends on company employees, financial ability, technology and customer service. In politics, the same principles apply. A good politician depends on dedicated people, communication, technology, and adequate campaign funds to be successful. In order to make every day decisions in Congress, elected officials need advice on legislation from informed constituents. Thus, your position in the title industry makes you uniquely qualified to offer your expertise on a wide range of issues affecting the business and the community.
ALTA® has developed the Legislative Contact program to help inform legislators about the title industry and the issues that are important to you. If you would like to join this part of ALTA®'s grassroots network, please take time to learn more and become a Legislative Contact.
State Legislative Reports
Is your state considering legislation that would affect the title industry? If so, chances are good that another state has considered or enacted similar legislation. State Legislative Reports are a resource provided by members of ALTA®'s State Legislative and Regulatory Action Committee (SLRAC) throughout the year. You can review the reports anytime by visiting the State Legislative Reports Archive. The archive contains reports from 1998 to the present.
