Labor Secretary Questioned bout Davis-Bacon Policy on Survey Crews



In a recent congressional hearing, Secretary of Labor Thomas Perez was questioned about his department’s actions defining members of survey crews as “laborers and mechanics” under the Davis-Bacon Act.  Rep. Jack Kingston (R-GA), Chairman of the House Appropriations Subcommittee that funds the Labor Department,  asked the question during a hearing on the Obama Administration’s fiscal year 2015 funding proposal.  Perez claimed "there has not been a change in policy".  View the video starting at 1:41:05.
