AGC Chapter Leaders Visit D.C., Members of Congress

Earlier this week, AGC chapter leaders descended upon Washington, D.C. for its annual National and Chapter Leadership Conference. This conference is designed to bring chapter leaders together to discuss best practices and meet with members of Congress to address AGC's top legislative issues. AGC members visited with more than 100 members of Congress and their staff.  During these meetings with legislators, AGC members used the opportunity to urge support for immigration reform, for changes to procurement laws, for changing elements of Obamacare and increased federal investment in infrastructure by fixing the Highway Trust Fund and passing the Water Resources Development Act.  The Conference-designated “hill day” commenced with a session featuring AGC CEO Stephen Sandherr, Rep. John Delaney (D-Md.) and Rep. Reid Ribble (R-Wisc.) who discussed infrastructure funding. AGC of America would like to thank all the members and chapter executives who met with their Legislators.
