“I want to thank General President Callahan and the IUOE legislative team in Washington for their efforts to make this historic investment in Operating Engineers jobs a reality. I also want to thank the Local 49 members that encouraged their representatives to get this bill passed, they heard you. We need to put politics aside and acknowledge facts. The facts are this infrastructure package will keep our members working to rebuild the region for the next decade. That is good for us, and good for the nation.”
– Jason George, Local 49 Business Manager
