Reintroduction of PRO Act Proves Bad Ideas Never Die as Congress Pushes Economy-Harming Measure
Measure will disrupt an economy already struggling with inflation and supply chain challenges, increasing the risk of a recession and forcing workers to become the victims of unrelated disputes
The Associated General Contractors of America’s chief executive officer, Stephen E. Sandherr, issued the following statement in reaction to today’s reintroduction in Congress of the so-called PRO Act:
“Bad ideas in D.C. are a lot like weeds: no matter what you do, they keep coming back. A prime example of that is the pending reintroduction of the PRO Act. This anti-worker, anti-privacy and anti-growth measure will harm our economy at a time when many employers are struggling to cope with inflation, supply chain disruptions and labor shortages.
