Lobbies For You

Every day, we're on Capitol Hill and in federal agencies fighting for the mortgage professionals who power America's housing market.

Your Voice, Our Mission

As a mortgage broker, you navigate complex regulations, shifting market conditions, and evolving compliance requirements. You're focused on closing loans and serving clients. That's where NAMB comes in.

The National Association of Mortgage Brokers represents the interests of independent mortgage professionals before Congress, federal regulators, and key decision-makers. We're not just sitting at the table—we're actively shaping housing policy and regulatory decisions that directly impact your business.

Whether it's advocating for sensible regulatory relief, protecting access to credit, or ensuring fair treatment in the marketplace, NAMB's legislative team works year-round so you can focus on what you do best.

What We Fight For

Regulatory Reform & Relief

We challenge overregulation that burdened independent brokers without improving consumer outcomes. From trigger lead restrictions to QM definitional issues, NAMB pushes back against rules that limit your ability to serve borrowers effectively.

Market Access & Competition

We defend your competitive position against regulatory changes that favor large banks and non-bank lenders. A thriving independent broker channel means more choice and better service for American consumers.

Professional Standards

We advocate for licensing and certification standards that protect consumers and elevate the profession—without creating unnecessary barriers to entry for qualified professionals.

Consumer Protection

We support common-sense consumer protection measures that work in tandem with market competition, not against it. Better consumers means better long-term outcomes for everyone in the industry.
