Thoughts on Infrastructure Week 2017

From April 3-5, 2017, over 3,000 national, state and local building trades leaders assembled in Washington, DC for the 2017 Legislative Conference of North America’s Building Trades Unions (NABTU).

Welcome to the new website of North America’s Building Trades Unions (NABTU).

Without question, the most widely discussed by-product of the 2016 election cycle was the measure of strength that Donald J. Trump enjoyed among blue-collar, working-class Americans, including a sizable number of building trades and other rank and file union members.

Labor Day 2016 is an important milestone. In just two short months from now, Americans will go to the polls to elect our next President. And the stakes in this election could not be higher.
