One of the most important missions of Associated Builders and Contractors is to protect the construction industry’s legislative and regulatory interests through active involvement in political discussions on both the state and federal levels. ABC’s Governmental Relations office is working to expand the organization’s role and influence through legislative, regulatory and political action and to grow the governmental relations program into one of the top programs in the state.
For years, our members have been proactively involved in the legislative process, recognizing that as business owners their livelihood can be affected by what comes out of that process. It all comes back to the mantra, “Get into politics or get out of business.” Today’s technology makes it easier than ever to get into politics. ABC Louisiana members have a new on-line program to use for state issues making it easier than ever to contact elected officials. Visit our Contractor Connection and register Today!
