Yesterday, we joined the America Forward Coalition in a letter to Congressional leaders in support of A Stronger Workforce for America Act (H.R. 6655) – a bipartisan reauthorization of Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA).
WIOA is our country’s primary federal workforce development legislation, and is integral to expanding economic opportunity and mobility and building a stronger, more equitable economy. We are glad to see that the bill incorporates many of the America Forward Coalition’s recommendations to strengthen data and learning, performance improvement, accessibility, and coordination.
H.R. 6655 would strengthen our nation’s workforce development system, increase access to economic mobility and opportunity, invest in evidence-based approaches and continued learning, and improve access for participants and providers. We are excited to join our Coalition in supporting this essential legislation, and encourage policymakers to take action to pass the bill before the end of the year.
