News from PCCA
The Power & Communication Contractors Association (PCCA) applauds the U.S. Senate's rejection of Lauren McFerran's nomination to serve another term as National Labor Relations Board Chair. Announced on December 11, just five days before the deadline, the decision marks the end of her tenure on the board, which has been problematic at best and, at worst, outright unconstitutional.
PCCA members have been contacting their Senators over the last couple weeks to oppose the McFerran renomination, and when PCCA Government Affairs Committee members flew into to Washington, D.C., at the end of November to meet with legislators, the issue was atop their agenda.
The latest edition of the PCCA Journal is online.
Featured in this issue is a discussion about Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Broadband in the Home and the annual PCCA Year-End Showcase.

We are now accepting applications for PCCA's scholarship program for the 2025-2026 academic year. The scholarships are open to the children and other dependents of PCCA members' employees. Each scholarship is worth up to $10,000, and up to four scholarships are awarded every year.
PCCA is also awarding $1,000 "Who Will Do the Work?" scholarships to students at each partner school in the association's workforce development program: Northwood Technical College, Somerset Community College, State Technical College of Missouri, and Terra State Community College. These applicants do not need to be affiliated with a PCCA member.

You can tell by the deluge of ads on TV and the internet - the November elections are fast approaching, and PCCA wants to help ensure that voters elect pro-construction, pro-business, pro-America officials.
The upcoming elections – federal, state, and local – will greatly impact your life, your family, your community, and frankly, the future of our country. We need to rally pro-business, pro-America voters to make sure they are registered to vote and to get out and vote.
Click the link below to access the PCCA Voter Connection webpage where you can find out if you're already registered to vote, register to vote, request an absentee ballot, sign up for election reminders, get a sample ballot, and pledge to register if you're not yet old enough to vote.
Please share this link with everyone at your company, all your family and friends, and anyone who supports America's construction industry and our business community.
