Excerpt from Davis-Bacon Reform: Hearing of the Committee on Labor and Human Resources, United States Senate, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session on Examining the Administration's Proposal to Reform and Strenghten Enforcement of the Davis-Bacon Act, Which Implements Labor and Stan The committee met, pursuant to notice, at 10:34 a.m., in room SD-430, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Senator Paul Simon presiding. Present: Senators Simon, Metzenbaum, Kassebaum, and Thurmond. Opening Statement of Senator Simon Senator Simon [presiding]. The committee hearing will come to order. This is a hearing on the Davis-Bacon Act, which has served this Nation well, in my opinion. We are talking about a process where people come together and work out compromises. I think that is essential to the legislative process. I might add that in the State of Illinois, where I served in the State legislature for a while, we had what was called an agreed bill process, where the unions and the employers came together for changes in unemployment compensation, workmen's compensation, and other changes in labor law. And in my opinion, it has served both sides well in the State of Illinois. I am not suggesting that we can replicate that, but the coming together that has been attempted by the administration here I think is a desirable thing, and we are happy today to hold a hearing on Davis-Bacon. I will also insert in the record at this point statements by Senators Kennedy, Metzenbaum, and Pell. [The prepared statements of Senators Kennedy, Metzenbaum, and Pell follow: ] Prepared Statement of Senator Kennedy I am pleased that we are having this hearing today to discuss in a reasonable and appropriate forum changes proposed to the Davis-Bacon Act. I thank my colleague Senator Simon for his leadership in this area. And I welcome our witnesses, including Senator Craig. I particularly appreciate the time and effort the administration has taken to put together a reform package that many of us can support as being both fiscally responsible and ensuring the protections of the Act for workers. I also want to welcome Bob Georgine from the Building Trades to this hearing and thank him for his cooperation in this matter.

"The Davis-Bacon Act is a United States federal law that established the requirement that prevailing wages must be paid on public works projects. In this book, Armand J. Thieblot argues that the law was passed under false pretenses and based on flawed economic logic. Despite this, the law continues to expand in scope and increase in cost. The act is supported by a substantial bureaucracy within the Department of Labor that has resisted all efforts at substantive modernization or reform. Today, the Davis-Bacon Act is the bedrock upon which stands one of the last bastions of private unionization in the construction industry. This book provides a compelling list of fifty-four separate reasons why the Davis-Bacon Act should be repealed.Thieblot deals with the history, purposes, and administrative concepts of prevailing wage laws, providing an overview of the act's administration. He covers the survey and determination process, and delves into how the act is administered. Thieblot summarizes its direct and indirect costs, evaluates counterclaims on the economic impact of Davis-Bacon, and considers compromises short of full repeal. Also included are seven appendices that provide full support for the conclusions summarized in the main text.Thieblot documents a case against Davis-Bacon that is neither judgmental nor political, but he does question whether there is compelling public interest in maintaining a federal prevailing wage law. He puts forward a list of reasons why the Davis-Bacon Act should be repealed, making a convincing case that deserves action and not just simple consideration. This work should be read by all economists, lawmakers, and government officials."--Provided by publisher.
