Proposed Increase to Davis-Bacon Contract Threshold
On October 6, 2011, HR 3135 was introduced. This resolution proposes to amend Title 40 of the United States code, more commonly known as the Davis-Bacon Act, by increasing the threshold dollar amount for construction contracts subject to the prevailing wage restrictions.
The bill was introduced by congressman Jeff Duncan (R-SC). This republican-backed resolution currently has 21 republican co-sponsors (none from NH). There is little information available on the bill at this time including any suggested thresholds.
After introduction, a House Resolution is assigned to House Education and Workforce committee. This is very early in the process. It should be noted that the majority of resolutions never make it out of their respective committees.
