Rick Santorum: “We just voted on whether there should be repeal of Davis-Bacon. Many of us are not for repeal of that. We believe that…”

On the recordMay 22, 1996
We just voted on whether there should be repeal of Davis-Bacon. Many of us are not for repeal of that. We believe that there needs to be reform of the Davis-Bacon law and that we, in fact, should assume that for the purposes of the budget. I think there is bipartisan support for reform of Davis-Bacon. I wanted the Senate to go on record for that reform measure.
