The Washington D.C. initiative marks the first collaboration between the two organizations to unite the broker community
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23, 2026 — The National Association of Mortgage Brokers (NAMB) and the Broker Action Coalition (BAC) announced today that they will co-host their annual advocacy fly-in in Washington, D.C., on April 20-22, 2026. The joint event, titled Advocacy in Action: Better Together, represents the first time the two organizations have partnered to bring the broker community together for a unified advocacy experience on Capitol Hill.
The initiative was announced today during NAMB Focus, the organization’s annual sales, marketing, and technology conference.
Advocacy in Action: Better Together differs from traditional mortgage industry conferences by placing brokers face-to-face with policymakers. Participants will engage directly with members and their staff to address real-world challenges affecting homebuyers, small businesses, and the communities they serve.
NAMB and BAC collectively represent thousands of independent mortgage brokers across the nation. Through this partnership, the organizations aim to strengthen the industry’s voice and demonstrate how unified advocacy can drive meaningful, lasting policy change.
“This partnership reflects what our industry needs most right now: unity,” said Kimber White, President of NAMB. “When brokers come together with a single, coordinated message, it sends a clear and powerful signal to lawmakers that our channel matters, our consumers matter, and we are committed to protecting access to homeownership. Advocacy in Action: Better Together will demonstrate to Washington what true collaboration in our industry looks like.”
“Policy decisions are being made every day that directly impact brokers and the families we serve,” said Rachel Clark, Executive Director of the BAC. “By co-hosting this event with NAMB, we are creating a stronger, louder, and more effective voice for independent brokers. This is about showing up, building relationships, and making sure our industry is represented where it matters most on Capitol Hill.”
Both NAMB and BAC have previously hosted successful fly-in events independently, but this joint initiative highlights a shared commitment to strengthening broker advocacy through collaboration. The event will feature policy briefings, issue-focused discussions, and direct meetings with lawmakers, providing participants with the knowledge, access, and influence necessary to drive meaningful change.
The cost is only $99 to attend. For more information, visit BAC’s website at https://brokeractioncoalition.com/aia-2026
