rescinding the rule that contractors on projects receiving federal money pay the prevailing wage

Sleezy unions, looking to profit on this fiasco.

THERE IS NO PREVAILING WAGE in a city with no citizens.

LOL......I am just tired enough for that to make sense to me!

It the contractors are not willing to pay the wages prevailing in Houston or Dallas, then I assume that the costs for their services that they charge will also be less than what they would charge in Houston and Dallas?

I'm a construction contractor in the NY/NJ metro area.

Usually prevailing wage and union workers are on government and commercial work and nonunion, non-prevailing wage is in the residential market.

Now, with all the residential units needing to be rebuilt with federal funds, it will have the effect of having union, prevailing wage workers working in the usual nonunion market.

I Can see why the President suspended Bacon-Davis.
