Creates new job training programs for workers facing job loss from automation.
This bill would create new job training programs to help workers whose jobs might be lost due to automation. It would set aside money for grants to local groups and expand existing federal training programs, helping people learn new skills for technology-focused jobs. These changes would start in the government's budget year 2027.
Today, federal job training programs have limited funding and have seen a decline in the number of workers served over the past three decades, even as automation is expected to displace about 5 million more jobs than it creates between 2025 and 2030. This bill would expand existing federal training programs to specifically address job losses from automation and set aside an additional $40 million each year for certain grants, helping more workers get the skills needed for new technology-focused jobs.
