    ASSOCIATED BUILDERS AND CONTRACTORS OF SAN DIEGO ENDORSE JUNE CUTTER FOR STATE ASSEMBLY (San Diego, CA) – Associated Builders and Contractors of San Diego today announced its endorsement of June Cutter for Assembly. “June Cutter is our candidate of choice for Assembly District 77,” said Shandon Harbour, President and CEO of Associated Builders and Contractors of San Diego. “As an experienced litigator who has represented employers and construction industry businesses for nearly two decades, June has a deep knowledge and understanding of the challenges faced by our members, as well as the issues which affect all working Californians.” Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) is a national trade association representing nearly 21,000 merit shop contractors, subcontractors, material suppliers and construction-related professionals in 70 chapters across the United States, including the San Diego Chapter (ABCSD). ABCSD is located in a state-of-the-art facility in Poway, California, including offices, classrooms, online training labs, and a 11,000 square foot, hands-on construction training lab. “I am proud to accept the endorsement of Associated Builders and Contractors of San Diego,” said June Cutter. “In Sacramento, I will champion the interests of working men and women, and their families, in District 77 and throughout the State of California.” Momentum continues to grow behind June Cutter’s campaign as more prominent elected leaders and groups endorse June Cutter for Assembly. June has already been endorsed by the San Diego County Republican Party, the California Women’s Leadership Association, Assembly Republican Leader Marie Waldron, Senate Republican Leader Shannon Grove, San Diego Councilman Chris Cate, San Diego Supervisor Jim Desmond, and many other local and state leaders.
