Overview: ACR 28, the Relative to Women in Construction Week resolution, was introduced in the California State Assembly on February 5, 2025, and subsequently chaptered by the Secretary of State.
Purpose and Intent: The resolution aims to recognize and celebrate the contributions of women in the construction industry. It designates the first week of March as "Women in Construction Week" in California, providing an opportunity to highlight the important role women play in the state's construction workforce and to encourage more women to pursue careers in this field.
Key Provisions:
- Declares the first week of March as "Women in Construction Week" in California
- Encourages the public and private sectors to organize events and activities to recognize the achievements of women in construction
- Calls on educational institutions and industry organizations to promote careers in construction to young women and girls
Affected Parties and Impacts: The resolution directly benefits women currently working in the construction industry, as well as those considering careers in this field. It also has the potential to inspire more young women and girls to explore opportunities in the construction sector, helping to address the gender imbalance in the industry.
Procedural and Timeline Considerations: The resolution has been chaptered by the California Secretary of State, meaning it has been officially adopted and will take effect immediately. The first "Women in Construction Week" celebration in California will take place in March 2025.
