And we point at data center investment and that private sector investment as one of the root causes.” nbc4i.com/news/politics/ohio…

It’s Work Zone Awareness Week, and we’d like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that many of our members do dangerous work on bridges and other roads. Just this year, two members of ours were seriously injured by irresponsible drivers. Please pay attention when you are driving – our lives depend on it.
