As national political pundits autopsy the November 4 off-cycle election results held in New Jersey and Virginia (including analysis from IEC’s government affairs team), one thing is clear — the outcome of the upcoming 2026 midterm elections will have a significant impact on IEC member companies, employees, and the overall construction industry.
