OSCAR Visits Florida House Representatives and Senators

A group of about 15 OSCAR Realtors just returned from a very successful trip to Tallahassee for the Great American Realtor Days. Key Contact Daisy Cid (Rep. Darren Soto) and Key Contact Cheryl Grieb (Rep. Mike Horner) together with Public Policy Chair, Tim Weisheyer, led us as we talked to our elected officials regarding support for key legislative issues that are important to Florida Realtors. OSCAR was one of the many Realtor Associations that showed up in numbers to lobby for these important real estate related issues that are focused on revitalizing Florida’s economy and strengthening the local real estate market. We also had an opportunity to join other Realtor Associations who were Key Contacts for Senator Mike Haridopolis and Senator Paula Dockery as well as Representative Stephen Precourt.

Many other associations were impressed by OSCAR numbers who attended GARD considering the smaller size of our organization. The highlight of the trip was when both Rep. Darren Soto and Rep. Mike Horner (from our districts) stopped by our dinner table to spend some quality time with OSCAR. We thank our public officials for their commitment to our community and their support of OSCAR.
