The CAGC representatives at the Sept. 27-29, 2015 meeting were among several hundred attendees representing the 93 AGC chapters around the nation, focusing on key issues including:
- Passage of a multi-year transportation bill for a reliable tool to secure funding for federal highway and transit programs.
- Opposition to a federal rule that expands Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) jurisdiction over navigable waters without further clarification, a move that would massively increase the number of construction sites required to obtain a federal Clean Water Act permit and, in turn, increase unwarranted delays and construction costs. The new rule was finalized in May 2015.
- Promotion of a sound approach to the immigration issue.
- Ensuring that reforms to tax and spending policy promote long-term economic growth.
