Illinois REALTORS® Federal Political Coordinator Mike Drews met with David Simon, the new financial services legislative assistant to U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren (14th District), to discuss housing and financial services policy over cups of coffee.

They discussed government-sponsored enterprises (GSE) reform, flood insurance, tax policy and credit access.

Informal district meetings like these can become important components within the full scope of advocacy by Illinois REALTORS®.
