Merit Construction Alliance of Massachusetts

State & local governments are drowng in debt. Yet they still pursue policies that make it worse. For example, erecting barriers that limit fair and open competition. Reducing competition increases costs. Higher construction costs results in deeper debt. #mapoli #NoPLAs https://lnkd.in/eBpZxazA

"We Don't Know Them All, But We Owe Them All." Our honor and respect for all those who have served in our nation's armed forces. #VeteransDay2025

#MA ranks 43rd on Tax Foundation State Competitiveness Index due partly to new progressive income tax & other new corporate taxes. With new tax revenue, why is @MassGovernor planning workforce reductions & unable to meet infrastructure needs? #mapoli #NoPLAs https://lnkd.in/dcfsBuhs

Whether in construction or in life, we win when we are competitive. "The Massachusetts Taxpayers Foundation’s latest competitiveness index report ranked the Commonwealth dead last in the nation for private employer job growth between 2023 and 2024." https://ow.ly/cXk350X76jK #mapoli #winwithcompetition #NoPLAs Massachusetts Taxpayers Foundation

Today we honor the contributions of all American workers to the competitiveness and prosperity of our great nation, especially the merit shop construction workers who construct the buildings in which we live, learn and labor. #LaborDay2025

A merit shop construction worker makes the choice to not join organized labor and to keep the money that would otherwise go to union dues. The right of freedom of association includes choosing not to join an organization. #meritshopsbuildbest #NoPLAs #FreedomofAssociation

Wishing you all a Happy Independence Day! As we celebrate our nation's 249th birthday, remember that fair and open competition builds America with the best quality and value. #mapoli #meritbuildsbest #NoPLAs #July4th

"Free markets have made life better, healthier and more prosperous in demonstrable ways for billions of people. Anticapitalists on both left and right struggle to make a serious case that things are worse now than they were 100 or 150 years ago. " https://lnkd.in/eHK-Zdce

As we enter the summer season, we wish you a safe and enjoyable vacation. For merit shop workers, up to 4 weeks of company-paid vacation is the norm. Just another reason 4 out of 5 construction workers in #MA choose to work for merit shops. #mapoli #meritbuildsbest #NoPLA

Municipalities & public agencies face unpredictable material costs out of their control. What they can control is achieving the best construction value through a fair, competitive bidding process open to all qualified contractors. #mapoli #NoPLAs https://lnkd.in/gfzMB-gi
