Subject: Blocking Project Labor Agreements
Description: Perry (R-PA) amendment to the Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations bill prohibits using funds to enforce an executive order which encourages federal agencies to require labor agreements on construction projects. Such agreements force contractors to negotiate with unions and make it difficult for competing non-union companies to secure contracts. ACU opposes such agreements, which drive up the cost of projects to taxpayers.
Result: Amendment Rejected, 209-216
Names ordered: By yea/nay Order alphabetically Order by party Order by state
