Currently, is it discriminatory? It seems to me like a min. wage for work concept.

I don't see anything here about "getting the job done".

According to the wiki, it was discriminatory at the time because it generally meant that only union workers would get federal construction jobs, and unions did not admit African-Americans. As this is no longer the case with unions, it should in theory no longer be discriminatory - just wasteful.
