ABC Congratulates Merit-Shop-Friendly Executive Branch and Senate
Associated Builders and Contractors released the following statement on Nov. 6, congratulating ABC-endorsed Donald J. Trump on his election as president and the election of a merit-shop majority in the U.S. Senate.
“This is an exciting day for our industry,” said ABC president and CEO Michael Bellaman. “ABC is optimistic about the future of America’s construction industry and the opportunities to advance policies that protect free enterprise, reduce regulatory burdens and expand workforce development. With leaders and lawmakers committed to promoting economic growth and supporting the principles of fair and open competition, we are confident that the construction industry will thrive, and all workers will be given the opportunity to build America with fewer obstacles.
“ABC looks forward to working with the Trump administration and Congress to advance policies that solve the issues that the construction industry faces, including the skilled labor shortage of more than half a million, widespread regulatory burdens, and inflation and tax challenges,” Bellaman added. “We also welcome the opportunity to work with a president who is willing to welcome all of the U.S. construction industry to rebuild America.”
