VIDEO: Protecting Prevailing Wages

The Fair Contracting Foundation works to elevate the legal enforcement of applicable laws to ensure quality contractors have the opportunity to compete fairly. One of their focuses is protecting prevailing wages.
 
“Working people in Minnesota are preserving part of the middle class through prevailing wage laws. Unfortunately, these laws have recently been repealed in several states, including Wisconsin, because some political leaders claim that construction wages are too high. Support the skilled people who build Minnesota; support your local economies; and support prevailing wages!”
