NAIOP SoCal has appointed a 2026 legislative affairs team, positioning the organization to build on recent wins and drive even stronger results for the commercial real estate industry in Southern California and Sacramento. Longtime Sacramento lobbyist Adam Regele has been retained to lead state-level advocacy efforts, while The Edmond Group, led by CEO Susana Gonzalez Edmond and managing partner John Edmond, will assist with legislative activities across Southern California.

NAIOP SoCal’s legislative affairs team will continue to be headed by CEO Tim Jemal, while government relations manager Mihran Toumajan will remain in his full-time role.

“I’m honored to represent NAIOP SoCal and champion the interests of commercial real estate in Sacramento and across state agencies,” said Regele. “Commercial real estate is essential to California’s economic success, and I look forward to ensuring state policies reflect its vital role in job creation, investment, and generating public revenues.”
