Íæż½ã½ã

Íæż½ã½ã will provide a contractor's perspective on how additional infrastructure investment would help stimulate the economy through direct and indirect job creation at a hearing next Wednesday. Íæż½ã½ã this week was invited to testify at the hearing, "Infrastructure Investment: The Road to Recovery," conducted by the House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee. As Congress continues to debate whether to enact an additional economic recovery package that may include a significant infrastructure investment component, Íæż½ã½ã will contribute to the hearing through testimony from Brian Burgett, President and CEO, Kokosing Construction Company.  Burgett will focus his remarks on water resources investment, in addition to providing testimony on the state of the overall construction industry and on the critical need for supplemental federal infrastructure funding to stimulate the economy.   Íæż½ã½ã continues to work with Congressional leaders towards enactment of an economic recovery package with infrastructure investment. Congress may reconvene following the election to consider a bill by the end of the year.
