H.R. 735, Government Neutrality in Contracting Act (for Coloradans)

(This information comes to me from Margo Knutson with Coffee4Conservatives in Douglas County, CO.)

Our president signed an Executive Order requiring federal construction to be done by unionized companies at an incredible cost to the taxpayers.

H.R. 735, Government Neutrality in Contracting Act which will preserve open competition and federal government neutrality towards the labor relations of federal government contractors and federally-funded construction projects, is being co-sponsored by Republicans Scott Tipton, Doug Lamborn and Mike Coffman.

However, we are still waiting for Rep. Cory Gardner to jump on board to support this bill to stop the Executive Order. Please contact Rep. Gardner at 202-225-4676 or email him at juliet.kroll@mail.house.gov and encourage him to co-sponsor this bill as well.
