ICE represents its contractor members on state and federal legislative matters that concern signatory masonry contractors.  ICE aims to encourage, stimulate and provide the opportunity for ICE Affiliates to take a more active role in political and government activities that affect the unionized masonry industry by:

  • Monitoring the legislative environment for laws and regulations that will effect the unionized masonry industry and proactively seeking to influence legislation to the benefit of the industry and ICE membership;

  • Providing support for candidates for office, political party committees and other organizations that support our issues;

  • Educating ICE members on current legislative and political issues and providing them with guidance on actions they can take to help address the issues;

  • Organizing meetings, forums and other political activities to give ICE membership the opportunity to communicate our issues directly to lawmakers.
