PLA's concern Construction Industry

PLA's discriminate

A Louisiana Weekly article makes a compelling case that Project Labor Agreements discriminate against Black owned construction companies which are 98% non-union. The article also explains the reason for the non-union status of those businesses. If unionized, they likely would be pressured into hiring employees from predominantly white union hiring halls.

First PLA project announced

The Washington Times reports the announcement of a $35M New Hampshire federal construction project, the first under a PLA since the Clinton Administration.
