The Maryland House Republican Caucus is asking Governor Moore to rescind an order that would put Maryland construction workers at a competitive disadvantage.  The executive order requires the consideration of a Project Labor Agreement on large construction projects and often favors union labor.  Currently, almost 90% of Maryland’s construction workers are non-union.  Moore’s order appears related to the contract for rebuilding the Francis Scott Key Bridge that was awarded to a Nebraska firm.
