THANK YOU!

Our annual Holiday Installation Banquet was a huge success!

Barbara Powers and her committee would like to thank all our event sponsors.
As of last week, the Arkansas Tax Reform and Relief Legislative Task Force (a mouthful) unanimously adopted a ‘Draft Bill’ that would among other things, repeal the Political Contribution Income Tax Credit. This ‘tax credit’ allows for small contributions ($50/$100) to political campaigns or small donor PACs, to receive a tax credit when filing their state tax return.  

This Political Contribution Tax Credit is a provision in Arkansas tax code that has been around for 22 years. It is one of the cornerstones REALTOR members rely on as a benefit of investing in ARPAC. This tax credit allows Arkansas REALTORS, to have a collective voice in all matters relating to private property rights and issues of home ownership.
