Federal job training and adult education programs would shift to the Department of Labor
This bill would move federal programs for career training and adult education from the Department of Education to the Department of Labor. The change aims to improve how these programs are managed and would affect students, workers, and the government agencies that run these initiatives. This shift would take effect six months after the bill becomes law.
Today, the Department of Education manages federal career, technical, and adult education programs, including their staff and funding. If this bill passes, the Department of Labor would take over all these programs, along with their staff, money, and responsibilities, starting six months after the bill becomes law.
