The state-of-the-art Johnson Controls engineering and test facility in southern York County, Pa. is a flagship project for IBEW Local 229 and our affiliated electrical contractor I.B. Abel Inc. The project includes a three-story, 107,000-square-foot engineering office and a 250,000-square-foot test facility where Johnson Controls will test its air handlers and chillers.

The IBEW Construction and Maintenance conference is an annual gathering of our Union's leadership in Washington DC, and this year, attendees witnessed a historic moment as our new President, Kenny Cooper, steps up to the podium for the very first time, igniting a transformative era for our Union. President Kenny Cooper's resounding message was received by all, resonating with the urgency of North America's electrical revolution. With President Biden's visionary "Build Back Better" plan at the forefront, the IBEW stands poised to seize a wealth of unprecedented opportunities.
