ACEC: Bipartisan Infrastructure Agreement will Create Thousands of Jobs and Billions in Economic Output for the Engineering Sector
WASHINGTON — On the heels of last week’s announcement that a bipartisan agreement had been reached on infrastructure, the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) released a new report analyzing how the proposal might benefit the engineering and design industry in terms of economic output and job creation.
“This is the first time we have taken a hard look at the numbers to see how a massive infrastructure investment would directly benefit America’s engineering industry,” said Linda Bauer Darr, president and CEO, ACEC. “If the package spurs growth in our industry of this magnitude, then the impact to the broader economy must be huge.”
