Yesterday the Missouri House of Representatives passed SB 182, the Senate version of project labor agreement (PLA) reform. PLA reform was a top issue this year for the Show-Me Institute that we featured in our Blueprint and testified on earlier this year. We have written about the issue on the blog, and spoken about it on the airwaves and elsewhere, so I won’t rehash the importance of PLA reform. Suffice to say, I am happy to see progress on this labor legislation and hope that it will be just one of many market-oriented successes we’ll see this year.
