From the Archives: TREPAC aims for $150,000 in 1975

September 01, 2025

APRIL 1975

Fifty years ago, TREPAC announced a statewide push to raise $150,000. That goal was nearly double the previous year’s total and would continue the political action committee’s expansive growth from its initial year’s $9,500 invested in 1972. Adjusted for inflation, TREPAC’s $150,000 goal would be about $916,000 in today’s dollars. These days, TREPAC has reached much greater heights. The political action committee hopes to build on the momentum from the legislative wins from the 89th Texas legislative session to propel support past its $6 million haul from 2024. TREPAC’s mission is to raise and disburse funds to support candidates who champion REALTOR® issues. You can make your investment and learn more at trepac.com.
