Will Bill You Later Anyway

Some realtors don't really have a choice about contributing to RPAC. From a recent email from a North Carolina realtor:

One of the things they do so that they will have 100% office participation for RPAC is that if you refuse to give, they give in your name...then they bill you for it.
