Amendment to Repeal Prevailing Wage Laws

Jul. 13, 2017 | H.Amdt. 180 to H.R. 2810
This amendment by Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (H.R. 2810) would have repealed Davis-Bacon coverage for projects funded under this bill. The Davis-Bacon Act requires companies to pay construction workers locally prevailing wages on federally funded projects. The amendment failed.

This is Bad for working people.
