WOW: The Obama Presidential Center is set to open to the public this Friday as multiple black contractors and subcontractors are FURIOUS after they’ve been left on the hook for hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars in unpaid work and cost overruns on the project, according to Fox News.
One plumbing company alone says it’s still owed nearly $4M after delays, rework, and over 100 change orders.
Construction costs have ballooned from an original estimate of around $330M to at least $850M, while the promised $470M taxpayer safety net endowment sits at just $1M.
