The Rebuild SoCal Partnership blog will keep you informed on the latest initiatives, local projects and news in infrastructure and construction.
The Rebuild SoCal Partnership advocates the union of labor and management at the table together for the good of the Industry. Our purpose is to improve the lives of Americans who rely on infrastructure daily. We are dedicated to working with the elected officials and educating the public in Southern California on the continued need for infrastructure funding and to enhance the regions’ workforce development while creating career construction jobs.
We raise public awareness and educate elected officials about the issues impacting the 12 counties of Southern California.
