AI Summary: The bill aims to prohibit agreements that restrict competition in public works contracts.

This legislation intends to enhance transparency, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness in the procurement process for public construction projects. By outlawing such restrictive practices, the bill aims to ensure a level playing field for all contractors and promote greater accountability in public infrastructure development.
