May Conduit/WisPAC Update
ACEC WI is getting prepared for major legislative movement in 2019. The biennial budget negotiations are set to start in April and will focus on the Governor's massive requests for transportation, vertical and water infrastructure funding. Water infrastructure has already been voted on by the Joint Finance Committee and ACEC WI is preparing a grassroots infrastructure campaign to promote transportation funding. We want to move quickly in a changing environment so please consider participating in the Conduit/WisPAC right away. Below is the list of people who have already stepped up in 2019:
