AOA Political Action Luncheon: Supporting Property Owners, Strengthening Housing, and Building Community
Julie Markarian is proud to invite you to the AOA Political Action Luncheon, an important annual event hosted by the Apartment Owners Association (AOA). This luncheon brings together housing providers, investors, and industry leaders to support responsible property ownership and the policies that help keep California’s rental housing industry strong.
This year’s event is more than a luncheon. It is a chance for property owners to come together, stay informed, and directly support advocacy efforts that protect housing providers from harmful legislation.

Why This Luncheon Matters
The AOA Political Action Luncheon supports the AOA Political Action Committee (PAC), which works year-round in Sacramento and throughout California to protect property owners’ rights and promote fair, functional housing policy.
AOA PAC’s work focuses on issues that impact housing providers every day, including opposing harmful rent control proposals, advocating for fair and reasonable rental housing laws, and supporting candidates who understand the challenges property owners face.
Julie is passionate about creating spaces where housing providers can connect, get educated, and stay empowered, and this event is designed to do exactly that.
