“I submit for the Record letters of support for the Save American Workers Act from The Associated General Contractors of America on behalf of their workers and their members, and also a letter by the National Franchisee Association on behalf of their members and workers, and I yield 1 minute to the distinguished gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Stutzman), my colleague. The Associated General Contractors of America, Arlington, VA, February 3, 2014. Re Support H.R. 2575, the Save American Workers Act of 2013 Hon. Dave Camp, House of Representatives, Washington, DC. Dear Chairman Camp: On behalf of the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC), I am writing in support of H.R. 2575, the Save American Workers Act of 2013. This act would repeal the 30-hour definition of ``full-time employment'' in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) by replacing it with the more traditional 40-hour definition. The construction industry is typically project-based, transitory and seasonal, which distinguishes it from other professional industries with more predictable hours. As a result, many construction employers rely on part-time, seasonal and variable-hour employees. In addition, the construction industry consists of many smaller employers with limited human resource and administrative staff.…”
