Welcome to the New Jersey Chapter of NAIOP, the commercial real estate development association.         
 
NAIOP New Jersey Grassroots Advocacy

Do you want others controlling the agenda in Trenton, or will you stand up for your own interests and the interests of our larger industry?

Help us convince lawmakers to support our initiatives. Help us keep New Jersey working. 

There are many ways you can support NAIOP New Jersey's efforts to protect and promote the commercial and industrial real estate industry.

Step up...join a policy committee.

Read up...learn about industry issues and NAIOP's positions in our publications.

Speak up...let your legislators know who you are, what your business means to their districts, and why you want them to support or oppose specific legislation.

Show up…make your presence known in Trenton: attend committee meetings when our bills are being heard, attend session days when our bills are up for a vote. Whenever legislators or cabinet members are speaking at NAIOP New Jersey events, be sure to attend and introduce yourself.

Ante up…support the Developers Political Action Committee and Funds for the Future. These voluntary contributions support our advocacy efforts on your behalf.

The clout of an organization does not just come from the size of its PAC, but also from the individual voices of its members. The most brilliant and compelling argument in favor of a bill carries little weight when it comes from one person. 100 people or 1,000 people making the same points from their own unique perspectives…that is what it takes to get Trenton’s ear.
