The program was moderated by John P. Horan, a partner in Foley’s Construction Practice. Panelists included: State Representative Sandra (Sandy) Adams</B>; Jeff Murray, Office of Congressman Tom Feeney; Mark Wylie, President and CEO of the Central Florida Chapter of Associated Builders and Contractors, Inc.
