I
appreciate how everyone is working together – business and labor, the House and
Senate, Republicans and Democrats – to create jobs.
It’s an urgent need, with 30 percent of construction workers unemployed on the west
side and 60 percent east of the mountains. There rightly is a sense of urgency.
I’m releasing proposed lists of construction projects in the House version of Jobs
Now so that people can see what this would look like and where jobs would be
created.
The House and Senate lists of construction projects are a little bit different, but
those differences will be easy to bridge. We stand united behind the goal of
helping our state’s construction workers, veterans and small businesses get
back on their feet, doing good work that will benefit our state for decades to
come.
