Advocated for introduction of legislation that would add new construction to the areas of federal procurement activity that would be subject to contract bundling scrutiny. This legislation would be similar to HR 1873 introduced in the 110th Congress. Supported introduction of HR 3771, which provides mentorship and grant assistance to certain small construction businesses for the purpose of placing them in better position to qualify for financial and surety credit. Supported S 292 and HR 275, which would repeal an existing (but not yet in effect) 3% tax withholding on goods and services from government contractors that would adversely impact the cash flow of these contractors and their ability to secure bonding and would have a disproportionate adverse impact on small contractors which could not shoulder the added financing burden.
