With 8 projects currently under construction in MN, BAC Local 1 is proud to support AFL-CIO Housing Investment Trust (HIT) in the effort to generate competitive risk-adjusted returns for investors—primarily pension plans—while creating union construction jobs and promoting community development!🧱🏢💪

“People have told me for decades you can’t build affordable housing with union labor. I say—I bet you $11.5 billion that you can. The HIT has invested over $11.5 of its capital into all union-built projects. And every single project has been successful.” -Chang Suh, AFL-CIO HIT CEO & CIO
