The Associated Builders and Contractors of Alabama endorsed Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall for U.S. Senate on Friday.
The association emphasized that Steve Marshall has consistently ensured Alabama businesses, particularly the commercial construction industry, remain protected and thriving. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he ensured that the entire nation recognized construction as an essential industry.
“Attorney General Marshall stood strong for Alabama’s commercial construction industry when it mattered most. By recognizing our workforce as essential during the COVID-19 shutdowns, he helped keep our crews on the jobs, our families provided for, and our state’s economy moving,” ABC chairman Tim Harrison said.
Marshall also secured a nationwide injunction halting Biden’s federal-contractor vaccine mandate, defending workers and employers from what he argued was unlawful government intrusion.
“He didn’t cave to the pressure. He stood with Alabama’s working families, and we’re proud to back him as he fights to take our Alabama values—like merit, hard work, and personal responsibility—to Washington,” Harrison said.
Associated Builders and Contractors of Alabama represents the construction industry. It creates 200,000 jobs and accounts for 5% of the state’s economic output. ABC is committed to advocating on behalf of the industry and its workers.
“I’m proud to have the support of Associated Builders and Contractors of Alabama in this race for U.S. Senate,” Marshall said. “These are the men and women who wake up early, work with their hands, and build this country from the ground up. They don’t rely on Washington—they just want the government to get out of their way.”
He continued, “ABC’s belief in hard work, free markets, and American-made opportunity is exactly what I’m fighting for. In the Senate, I’ll stand with the folks who punch a clock and build this country—not the ones sitting in conference rooms making rules they’ll never have to follow.”
