NASBP and SFAA as well as nine construction and insurance organizations support legislation, H.R. 3534, introduced yesterday by U.S. Representatives Richard Hanna (R-NY) and Mick Mulvaney (R-SC).

The groups commend the Congressmen for proposing the "Security in Bonding Act," that provides needed and common-sense repairs to a procurement system that can permit gamesmanship and the acceptance of surety bonds with deficient assets, often to the detriment of the many small businesses furnishing labor, materials, and equipment on federal construction projects.

This morning, the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 674, legislation to repeal the 3% withholding tax mandate, by a vote of 405 to 16.

According to the rule adopted by the House, H.R. 674 has been combined with H.R. 2576, which was also approved by the House today with bipartisan support, into one measure.  H.R. 2576, the offset to pay for the repeal of the 3% withholding tax mandate, adjusts the income qualifications for purposes of determining eligibility for certain healthcare-related programs, such as Medicaid.
