Amendment to Repeal Prevailing Wage Laws
Jul. 26, 2017 | H.Amdt. 227 to H.R. 3219
This amendment by Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) to the Make America Secure Appropriations Act, 2018 (H.R. 3219) would have repealed Davis-Bacon coverage for projects funded under this bill.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.
