View the TIPAC Committee
TIPAC is the federal political action committee of the American Land Title Association, registered with the FEC, that makes contributions to candidates for federal office. Contributions to TIPAC are not tax-deductible for federal income tax purposes. All contributions to TIPAC are voluntary. You may refuse to contribute without reprisal. The guidelines mentioned are merely suggestions. You are free to contribute more or less than the guidelines suggested, and ALTA will not favor or disadvantage you by reason of the amount of your contribution or your decision not to contribute. Federal law allows contributions up to $5,000 per calendar year.
Federal law requires us to use our best efforts to collect and report the name, mailing address, occupation and name of employer of individuals whose contributions exceed $200 in a calendar year.
Why TIPAC Exists
Every day, decisions are made in Washington that directly impact your business—how you close transactions, how you manage risk, and whether title insurance remains a trusted part of real estate.
TIPAC ensures that the people making those decisions:
- Understand the role of title insurance
- Recognize the risks of untested alternatives
- Support policies that protect property rights and consumers
Without a strong voice, those decisions get made without you.
Your Most Important Investment in Advocacy
TIPAC pools individual contributions from ALTA members to support federal candidates who align with the interests of the title industry. It’s:
- Targeted – focused only on federal races that impact your business
- Strategic – contributions based on influence, leadership, and outcomes
- Non-partisan – support is based on issues, not party
Every contribution strengthens your industry’s seat at the table.
People Have Power
By law, companies can’t contribute directly to federal candidates—but individuals can.
TIPAC gives you a way to:
- Combine your voice with thousands of industry peers
- Support candidates who understand your work
- Be part of something bigger than your own company
This isn’t political noise. This is coordinated influence.
