Congratulations on your confirmation as Administrator of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). As you transition into this new role leading the agency, we respectfully request that you rescind the “Policy on Using Bipartisan Infrastructure Law Resources to Build a Better America” memorandum issued on December 16, 2021. We supported the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), because it represents the most significant infusion of investment in our infrastructure since the enactment of the Interstate Highway System in the mid-1950’s.

On behalf of the undersigned organizations, we write in strong support of the Family and Small Business Taxpayer Protection Act, H.R. 23. This legislation would rescind the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022’s billions in funding for the Internal Revenue Service’s (IRS) expanded enforcement efforts, while retaining funding for the IRS to focus on improving taxpayer services and modernizing operations to serve taxpayers.

The undersigned associations, businesses and stakeholders submit these comments to the Department of Labor (“DOL”) in response to its Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and Request for Comments Regarding Employee or Independent Contractor Classification Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) (the “Proposed Rule”).1  The current DOL rule regarding independent contractor classification, which went into effect on March 8, 2021 (the “2021 IC Rule”)2 provides badly needed clarity, uniformity, and simplicity to the independent contractor analysis and accounts for the realities of the modern workp

Federal investment in infrastructure is critical to sustaining economic growth and quality of life improvements as the nation moves beyond the COVID-19 pandemic. After years of promises of a large infrastructure bill, Congress and President Joe Biden delivered with the enactment of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) nearly 13 months ago. The investments from the IIJA are beginning to have real world impacts as numerous agencies begin to roll out programs and resources at a time when investing in our supply chain could not be more important.

The Coalition for a Democratic Workplace (“Coalition”) responds to the National Labor Relations Board’s (“Board”) Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (“NPRM”) on “Standard for Determining Joint-Employer Status.”  This proposed rule has problems – a lot of problems.  Respectfully, the Board should start over or leave the current standard in place. The proposed rule purports to be grounded in common law agency principles but instead presents an illdefined standard for joint employer liability that sinks to the level of an arbitrary and capricious agency action.

On behalf of the undersigned organizations, we write in strong support of the Family and Small Business Taxpayer Protection Act, H.R. 9092. This legislation would rescind the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022’s billions in funding for the Internal Revenue Service’s (IRS) expanded enforcement efforts, while retaining funding for the IRS to focus on improving taxpayer services and modernizing operations to serve taxpayers.

We the below signed members of the Americans for Transportation Mobility write in support of the two Waivers to the Buy America Requirements for Construction Materials. The new requirements created by the Build America, Buy America Act (BABA) included in the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) introduce significant changes to existing Buy America requirements that require additional analysis and guidance from the Administration to implement.

The diverse coalition of undersigned associations and organizations representing the interests of tens of thousands of companies and millions of skilled employees in the U.S. construction industry, as well as organizations representing the interests of thousands of companies developing and building clean energy projects across America, hereby submits the following request for an extension of the public comment period by 60 days to the U.S. Department of Treasury and Internal Revenue Service in response to the above-referenced notice and agency request for comments published on Oct.

The diverse coalition of undersigned associations and organizations representing the interests of tens of thousands of companies and millions of skilled employees in the U.S. construction industry write to express strong opposition to the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council’s proposed rule implementing President Biden’s Executive Order 14063 requiring controversial and inflationary project labor agreements on federal construction contracts of $35 million or more in total value.

I’m writing on behalf of the Opportunity America Jobs and Careers Coalition to express our support for Sen. Tom Cotton’s American Workforce Act (AWA), a thoughtful, innovative approach to workforce development that has the potential to provide more effective training for American workers and badly needed talent for employers, enhancing opportunity and boosting economic competitiveness. The Opportunity America Jobs and Careers Coalition is a Washington-based business group focused on job training and workforce development.
