I was so pissed at Rick when he did this.
Davis-Bacon was a 1933 law designed by the KKK wing of the demonRAT party in order to keep southern black laborers from coming north and doing work for non union companies in major construction projects.
The blacks today have almost no membership in the craft unions where they work projects out of union halls, electrical, plumbers and steamfitters etc.
If you ever go to a union hall check out the skin color and if there is 2% black it's an over representation and it's very rare.
Black union membership is much higher in service unions {SEIU} and manufacturing {UAW} where the worker goes to the same place every day.
Rick will just manage the mess. He will not use the Bully Pulpit to make Americans hold Congress’ feet to the fire on spending and for their support in removing bloated, overbearing regulations and Federal Agencies!
His “team” playing is appreciated and applauded by the Establishment.
Newt on the other hand, is not their cup of tea.
