The executive order on project labor agreements that Gov. Maura Healey signed Tuesday will "promote good job opportunities for workers of all backgrounds."

Gov. Maura Healey plans to sign an executive order Tuesday that would require executive branch agencies to review public construction projects with an estimated cost of over $35 million to determine if a project labor agreement is “in the best interest” of the project.

The move, which puts the state in line with policies set in a sweeping economic development bill Healey signed into law last year, is a boon to the state’s powerful unions.
