San Ramon, California - Mayor Abram Wilson announced the endorsement of the Associated Builders and Contractors, Golden Gate Chapter of his campaign for the 15th Assembly District. 
 
"I am proud to have the endorsement of the Associated Builders & Contractors' Golden Gate Chapter.  ABC has fought for open and fair competition in government contracting and free market principles.  I appreciate the role ABC has played on the state level in offering quality apprenticeship training programs and advocating for the state's vocational education programs.  A well trained workforce in construction is critical to our state's infrastructure."

The Golden Gate Chapter of Associated Builders and Contractors represents more than 500 construction contractors who build major commercial, industrial, and public works projects in the Northern California construction industry and also operates state-approved apprenticeship programs in several trades. ABC is the leader in the fight for fair and open competition in government - to ensure construction is done by quality contractors for the best price.

Wilson is running to restore fiscal responsibility to Sacramento. In the City of San Ramon where he has been mayor for nearly a decade, budget reserves exceed an unprecedented 50%. The State of California is currently facing a $15 billion budget shortfall.
