Will you help ?

DAVIS BACON

 

 

Has anyone ever heard of the Davis Bacon Act?

            Just think of what it “does”. Take a look around you; See that highway work? See those men lazing in the sun? They are the byproduct of Davis Bacon. Another is the TIME that it takes to work on a Davis Bacon job.

In Covington, GAthere have been portions of streets, including intersections that have taken years to complete, when they are eventually completed.

               I am asking Congress to start making every law a sunshine law.

What that should mean is that every law on the books should die after it has been in the law three years. That should give time to see how every law works so the general public has a chance to evaluate it. AND these laws should be retroactive because we already know how Davis Bacon works!

             Look in your neighborhood! Compare what is happening NATIONWIDE.

    “I am asking Congress to start making every law a sunshine law”

    I think you mean “sunset” law.

    And yes, drastically reforming Davis Bacon should be a goal of the GOP.

    In fact, I’d like to see civil service reform in general be a major goal for the Republicans.

    Simply winning legislative or executive office won’t be sufficient if everyone on the lowert rungs of the ladder are de facto Democratic Party operatives.
