Davis-Bacon Repeal Act

Repeals the Davis-Bacon Act wage requirements for federal contracts.

The Davis-Bacon Repeal Act seeks to repeal the wage requirements of the Davis-Bacon Act, which sets minimum wages for laborers and mechanics on federal government contracts. The bill would nullify any references to these wage requirements in existing laws. The repeal would take effect 30 days after the enactment of the Act but would not affect contracts in existence or made pursuant to invitations for bids outstanding on that date.
