Delaware Bill Dies Without Vote | Dover News

Published 2 weeks, 1 day ago
Description

Delaware’s stalled SB 272, which would’ve forced big school construction projects to use union-heavy project labor agreements, never got a vote—despite union backing—due to leadership concerns over costs and labor availability. School districts warned of ballooning budgets and higher taxes, while House leaders demanded proof the agreements keep jobs local. Union leaders were furious, with one demanding a $5,000 “donation back,” though the House PAC dismissed the letter as unrepresentative and denied ever receiving the money. Despite the tension, leadership says they’re still open to talks—and some unions are even supporting rival candidates who backed the bill.
