HB985 would make public work project bids more competitive and open to nonunion groups.
The Texas State House of Representatives passed HB985 on April 30, 2019 by a vote of 93 to 54. We have assigned pluses to the ayes as this will create more competition in public work projects, bringing down costs and increasing quality. The free market offers the best results, and HB985 is a step towards that. Allowing nonunionized groups will create competition and ensure both sides put their best forward.
