Overview
Legislative Action Committees work to monitor state legislation, educate lawmakers, and protect the interests of those living and working in community associations. Each committee is comprised of homeowner leaders, community managers, and representatives from community association business partners who graciously volunteer their time.

Contribute to your Legislative Action Committee
Legislative Action Committees (LACs) are diverse groups of homeowner leaders, community managers, and representatives from community association business partners that provide perspective to legislators on how proposed legislation could impact people living and working in community associations.
Issues Advancement Fund (IAF)
What is the Issues Advancement Fund?
CAI's Board of Trustees established the Issues Advancement Fund to help support and advance CAI's legislative, regulatory and legal advocacy efforts and programs. It was established to provide a resource base to enable CAI to respond to challenges, which, if unmet, could undermine community associations, their residents and member professionals. The Issues Advancement Fund works to support efforts at both the state and federal levels.
Who can contribute to the IAF?
The Issues Advancement Fund accepts voluntary contributions from individuals, associations and businesses that wish to directly support CAI's government affairs initiatives. Donations to the IAF may be deductible as ordinary and necessary business expenses, but are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes.
