Advocated generally for continued and increased funding for Perkins Career and Technical Education Grants. Advocated for the reauthorization of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act, including expanded access and funding for On the Job Training Contracts. Advocated specifically for H.R.4049 and S.3846, the Employer-Directed Skills Act. This bill would establish employer-directed skills accounts under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act. The new program would allow employers to select their trainees and type of training they receive, with training subject to local workforce board approval. Upon completion, employers would commit to hiring trainees. Employers also receive reimbursement for training costs, up to 50 percent of total costs. Advocated for WAGES Act (H.R. 8624 and S. 4463) would create a refundable payroll tax credit to help employers offset the cost of hiring and training apprentices. Met with Rep. Moran's (R-TX) office to discuss.
