Creates new job training for people to preserve historic buildings and cultural sites
This bill would set up a new grant program to help train people for jobs that preserve historic buildings and cultural sites. It would offer money to states, local governments, and schools to teach specialized skills like historic masonry or timber framing. This means more job training opportunities for people interested in these trades, especially in areas needing jobs or preservation help.
If this bill becomes law, it would create a new competitive grant program to fund workforce training, apprenticeships, and skilled trade development for preserving historic properties and objects across the country.
