Congresswoman Gwen Moore Slams Milwaukee Job Corps Closure
“For years, Job Corps has received bipartisan support. It has helped young people who might otherwise fall through the cracks reach their potential. In addition to providing job training and counseling services, it provides housing, which is especially important for those who are experiencing homelessness or housing insecure.
We need to be investing in our future generations – our future workforce. But this ill-advised decision will create chaos and uncertainty for vulnerable young people and undermine Congress’s authority to fund federal programs.”
