The Advocacy Scoop takes you behind the scenes of one of the most influential advocacy operations in America at the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR).
Hosted by NAR’s top lobbyist and Chief Advocacy Officer Shannon McGahn and Vice President of Advocacy Communications Patrick Newton, the podcast brings you inside the policy and political developments shaping real estate, homeownership, and private property rights.
Powered by more than 1.4 million members, NAR advocates on issues touching nearly one-fifth of the U.S. economy. That work has implications far beyond NAR’s members, impacting consumers across the country — everyone who owns a home or dreams of owning one.
Each month, Shannon and Patrick pull back the curtain on how that work gets done with exclusive polling, expert insights, and stories from Washington, D.C., and across the country.
From tax policy and fair housing to elections, regulations, and commercial real estate, The Advocacy Scoop breaks down what’s happening, why it matters, and how NAR turns advocacy into results while working to preserve, protect, and advance the right to real property for all.
