Legislation
As an individual, you are only one voice in the dark waters of bureaucracy. Your livelihood may be adversely affected by restrictive legislation. As a member of the HBA you are also a member of the Louisiana Home Builders Association and the National Association of Home Builders. The power of these combined voices gives us strength an individual does not have.
As an HBA member, you stay informed on important legislative issues, building trends, and industry updates that impact your business. We advocate on your behalf and offer chances to connect with local, state, and national leaders. Through our Political Action Committee (PAC), members can work together to support pro-building candidates and policies.
​
This section will keep you updated on key legislative developments affecting the home building industry.
