AGC, Manufacturers Plan Infrastructure Funding Push
The Associated General Contractors of America and the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) have laid the groundwork for a new coalition to advocate for increased infrastructure funding. The groups met on May 17 in Washington, D.C., along with public officials and leaders from hospitality, travel, aviation and other business-sector trade groups and labor unions.
“We want to help push for and shape the [Trump] administration’s infrastructure proposal,” AGC CEO Stephen Sandherr told ENR after the meeting. He said infrastructure investment would generate “direct benefits for the construction industry … and make manufacturers more competitive in the global arena.”
