Advocacy / Regulatory
We give you a stronger voice by representing your interests at the local, state and national levels of government. AGC has three-full time lobbyists in Sacramento and a staff of lobbyists in Washington, D.C., working on your behalf to promote your interest and the construction industry, and to protect your livelihood. AGC supports construction-friendly candidates on both sides of the aisle; we are well positioned to work with the U.S. Congress and California Legislature to advance critical issues. You will have the member resources and tools through our Legislative grassroots programs to make YOUR voice heard.
We work with the administration and legislature in the development of regulations, codes and standards that make common sense for contractors. Through AGC’s Legal Advisory Committee, attorney members work to protect contractors from unreasonable barriers and constraints to construction.
