DES MOINES –
Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) of Iowa representing over 450 construction businesses has endorsed Terry Branstad to be Iowa’s next governor. Members of ABC of Iowa’s Political Action Committee presented its endorsement to Branstad at an event with members of ABC of Iowa, Wednesday, September 15, 2010. The endorsement was awarded at noon at Legacy Golf Course at 400 Legacy Parkway in Norwalk.
In awarding the endorsement, Mike McCoy, Chairman of ABC of Iowa stated, “The members of ABC of Iowa have come together and decided that our state needs different leadership. Terry Branstad promises to end the discrimination against my employees and the employees of our other members who have made the choice not to belong to a union. Governor Culver’s executive order requiring the consideration of union-only Project Labor Agreements on state projects has kept our employees from getting those jobs. It’s wrong, and our employees deserve a leader who doesn’t discriminate against them. I look forward to Terry Branstad being the Governor of Iowa again, and I’m proud to represent ABC of Iowa and present him with this endorsement.”
