The Biden administration is announcing three new workforce initiatives on Tuesday, all aimed at supplementing emerging industries critical to POTUS's green agenda. FLOTUS will announce the new programs.
The administration has been communicating with localities and industry stakeholders on ways to ensure workers"will have equitable access to high-quality training, education, and services that provide a good career" in renewable energy, manufacturing, and other fields that stand to receive federal money through Biden's bipartisan infrastructure law, CHIPS and Science Act, and Inflation Reduction Act.
Senior administration officials say the cities hosting the new hubs — Phoenix, Arizona; Columbus, Ohio; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; and Augusta, Georgia — were chosen because of their emerging industry in the surrounding region and clear desire to work with the administration in receiving federal funds outlined in Biden's legislative victories.
The administration would not attach"specific dollar amounts" to the hubs themselves but reassured reporters the centers would receive federal assistance in a variety of ways. Finally, the"Good Jobs, Great Cities Academy" will seek to help cities"spur innovative and scalable city-led solutions that upskill and reskill all workers — including those who have too often been left behind — into quality, high-demand jobs in infrastructure, clean energy, and advanced manufacturing.
