Member Bulletins

AHFA drafts hundreds of pages of official comments and testimony on various legislative and regulatory issues each year. Staff members participate in dozens of meetings – some public forums and others informal meetings with technical staffers. Behind the scenes, AHFA often is working to help craft solutions to complicated regulatory challenges. Our Member Bulletins bring this work to the forefront, so CEOs and presidents have a clear understanding of the work being done on our industry’s behalf.
