Stand Up to Construction Industry Tax Fraud
Tax Fraud affects us all. When crooked contractors cheat the system, our communities are cheated out of millions in tax revenue. This impacts our schools, roads, emergency services, public safety, and other resources that benefit the community. It also contributes to wage theft, labor abuse, human trafficking, cheap wages, and brings an unskilled and unsafe workforce to our neighborhoods. It’s never been more critical to stand up against tax fraud. Follow this link and watch this video to learn more.

It’s crucial to continue advocating for change, to create a fairer future for construction workers and their families. Tax fraud is relentless, and that is why Union Carpenters are always vigilant, putting boots on the ground throughout the year to tilt the scales in our favor.
