Good morning - many of you have signed up for ALTA's Title Action Network (TAN). However, membership has to be renewed annually. Even if you have signed up in the past, please use one of the links below to make sure your TAN membership is current. The WLTA
Legislative Committee is going to be sending out at least one TAN alert requesting action in the near term. </div>

If you haven't participated in TAN before, please sign up today. Membership is free and open to all title professionals. You don't have to be an ALTA member. Your inbox will not get spammed. ALTA sends TAN alerts on pending federal issues a couple of times
a year. WLTA reserves TAN alerts for only the most critical bills. Some years we don't use TAN at all. When a TAN alert goes out, you will receive background on the issue. The alert will include an e-mail drafted to the applicable federal or state legislator.
You can simply click on the message to send, or personalize it. Time to read and respond to one of the infrequent TAN alerts can be just a minute or two. But the impact can be critical to advancing ALTA's and WLTA's legislative goals.</div>

The WLTA Legislative Committee will be sending out a TAN alert on Washington Substitute House Bill 2298.
<a class="OWAAutoLink" id="OWAf2af36b3-7492-457e-addf-d1dc9779aae7" href="https://app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary/?BillNumber=2298&Year=2025">
HB 2298 Washington State Legislature</a> The bill would permit every single Washington county auditor to establish their own title protection program, allowing for the filing of an instrument that could delay recording of deeds and other documents for up to
five days. Forged and fraudulent documents are a huge problem for consumers and the title industry. But this bill is the wrong approach. It has the potential to delay every single recording. Please sign up for TAN and be ready to respond when an alert
goes out.</div>
