Meet the Core Standards for State and Local Associations advocacy requirement with the H.R. 9 - The Innovation Act call for action. Demonstrate your association's participation by promoting the call for action on your website, social media, and newsletters and during office visits.

H.R. 9 - The Innovation Act will take vital steps to protect the real estate industry from frivolous lawsuits brought by patent trolls. REALTORS®, brokerages and multiple listing services are targeted by patent trolls trying to extort money from legitimate businesses by demanding fees to use common business tools such as website drop down menus and search functions and the copier scanner functions.

Contact your U.S. Representative and urge him or her to support H.R. 9 - The Innovation Act.
