The WHA is a nonpartisan, nonprofit advocacy organization
devoted to representing homeowners and property owners in
the state of Wisconsin. Its mission is "to advance and
promote issues of concern to all Wisconsin property owners."
According to WRA President Bill Malkasian, "The main purpose
of the Wisconsin Homeowners Alliance is to protect people's
property rights, home values, and the real estate market -
issue by issue - on a statewide and local basis."
The Alliance will work on behalf of property owners by means
of education and advocacy. Through education, the
organization will keep the state's property owners informed
of state and local regulatory issues that affect the
ownership of property in Wisconsin. Advocacy efforts will
focus on raising awareness of issues affecting Wisconsin
property owners through general media communications and
grassroots mobilization.
WRA VP Michael Theo says the Alliance will keep state and
local officials, and the public, aware of how various
proposed policies could help - or hurt - housing and
property ownership. 2005 WRA Chairman Kitty Jedwabny, a Fox
Valley REALTORŪ, says the Alliance will ADVOCATE for the
property owners' interests on the issues -- through the
media, and through grassroots actions like phone calling
campaigns and citizen rallies. 2006 WRA Chairman Jeff
Kitchen, REALTORŪ from Beaver Dam, says the WRA has taken
the lead in forming this Alliance because REALTORSŪ are aware
of the need to expand advocacy efforts on behalf of
homeowners and property owners. Says Kitchen, "You couldn't
have a better organization than the WRA being the founder of
this new Alliance." Established in 1908, the WRA today has
18,000+ members!
But unlike the WRA, the HOMEOWNERS Alliance is focused only
on ISSUES - NOT on candidates or political campaigns. The
Alliance won't engage in partisan elections, but only work
on issues at hand.
