This resolution congratulates the Southern Illinois Builders Association (SIBA) on its 80th anniversary, acknowledging its significant contributions to the construction industry in southern Illinois. Founded in 1945, SIBA represents approximately 500 members across 39 southern Illinois counties and has become a highly respected trade association focused on labor relations, workforce development, safety, and community investment. The resolution highlights SIBA's notable achievements, including maintaining a digital plans room for commercial projects, operating a nationally recognized safety program, hosting career expos that connect students with skilled trade opportunities, providing scholarships for construction-related education, and supporting vocational education programs in high schools. The Illinois House of Representatives formally recognizes SIBA's 80-year history and expresses wishes for the organization's continued success in supporting both the construction industry and the communities it serves, and resolves to present a copy of the resolution to SIBA as a gesture of respect and appreciation.
