2026 Patriots & Politics

Description

With critical midterm elections on the horizon, there has never been a more important time for the commercial construction industry to have a seat at the table.

Join fellow ABC South Texas members for Patriots & Politics, an exclusive members only event where business leaders will engage directly with elected officials and candidates for public office. As the voice of the merit shop, ABC South Texas is committed to advancing free enterprise, open competition, and fair and open procurement for the commercial construction industry.

Hear firsthand where candidates and elected officials stand on the issues affecting our workforce, economy, infrastructure, and the future of the merit shop construction industry. Throughout the evening, attendees will have the opportunity to network one on one with elected officials and candidates, ask questions, discuss issues impacting their businesses, and build relationships with the leaders making decisions that affect our industry every day. The program will also feature a special recognition of elected officials and candidates, each invited to share brief remarks with attendees.

ABC has long championed the belief, "Get into Politics or Get Out of Business." Advocacy is one of our core pillars, and every member has the opportunity and responsibility to help ensure the merit shop voice is heard.

Don't miss this opportunity to strengthen your relationships with policymakers, advocate for the merit shop construction industry, and help shape the future of commercial construction across South Texas.

Your business. Your industry. Your voice. Be part of the conversation.
