Your project has a budget and a deadline. Policy decisions can affect both, from funding for workforce training to the requirements attached to public projects. ABC Central Texas follows those issues and represents the contractors responsible for getting the work done.

That is why advocacy is part of your ABC membership.

ABC Central Texas’s Government Affairs team monitors issues affecting construction and represents merit shop contractors at the local, state, and federal levels. Its work includes advocating for apprenticeship funding and open competition, so more contractors can earn work based on their qualifications.

Members bring something lawmakers need: experience from the field. How a policy affects hiring, training, or the cost of delivering a project matters when decisions are being made.

ABC Action gives you a way to contact lawmakers and participate in ABC’s grassroots advocacy efforts.

ABC Central Texas members worked with the Roc Solid Foundation to build a playset for a local family.

It was an opportunity to put their skills to work outside the jobsite and give their time to a project that will be enjoyed long after the build was finished.

Thank you to everyone who came out and helped make it happen, and a special thank you to Louis Wyler with Cummings Electrical, LP for sponsoring the build.

We appreciate our members for giving their time and talents to the Central Texas community.

September is Su***de Prevention Month, a time to raise awareness, encourage open conversations, and remind one another that help is always available. In construction, looking out for each other matters. Checking in, listening without judgment, and offering support can make a real difference.

If you or someone you know is struggling, you are not alone. Confidential help is available 24/7 through the Su***de and Crisis Lifeline. Call or text 988 to connect with trained counselors.

Resources and Tools can be found here: https://www.preventconstructionsuicide.com/suicide-prevention-month

Together, we can build a culture where it is okay to ask for help and where every life is valued.

Construction workers face some of the highest risks for heat-related illness and injury. Long days, physical work and relentless Texas temperatures make planning for heat exposure an essential part of protecting your crew.

Before the workday gets away from you, make sure your heat safety plan includes:

💧 Cool drinking water close to the work area
⛱️ Accessible shade for recovery
⏱️ Adjusted work/rest cycles as the heat index climbs
🌡️ Acclimatization plans for new and returning workers
👷 Crews who know the warning signs and when to speak up Heat illness is preventable.

A little planning before the shift can make a big difference by the end of it.

ABC Central Texas is here to help members build safer jobsites and stronger safety programs.
