WASHINGTON, March 4, 2026 – The Broker Action Coalition (BAC), fresh off its landmark victory with the Homebuyers Privacy Protection Act which goes into effect this week, is launching a week-long fundraising campaign targeting individual mortgage brokers across the country. The campaign, running from March 2-6 aims to build sustainable grassroots support for the organization’s expanding advocacy agenda.
“We’ve proven what we can accomplish when brokers have a seat at the table,” said Brendan McKay, Chief Advocacy Officer for BAC. “But this is just the beginning. We need brokers to step up and support the work that directly benefits their businesses and their clients.”
The campaign focuses on recurring monthly donations of as little as $5 per month – “the cost of one Starbucks drink,” as BAC messaging frames it. While the organization has historically relied on corporate partnerships, this push represents a strategic shift toward building a broader base of individual donor support.
“We want our corporate partners to see that we have backing from the community we serve,” said Rachel Clark, Executive Director of BAC. “Individual broker support strengthens our voice and demonstrates the industry-wide commitment to the reforms we’re fighting for.”
The fundraising initiative comes as BAC expands its advocacy priorities beyond trigger lead reform to include lowering credit report costs, LO comp reform, and protecting brokers from overregulation.
Donations will support BAC’s 2026 legislative agenda, ongoing advocacy efforts, and the infrastructure needed to maintain broker representation in regulatory discussions. The organization plans to announce its corporate partners for the coming year in the coming months, as it has done in previous years.
BAC is encouraging brokers to visit https://givebutter.com/bacmonthly to set up recurring monthly donations and join the growing coalition of mortgage professionals advocating for industry reform.
