Evidence

Senator Cortez Masto visited Sierra Nevada Job Corps in Reno and her office stated that after she led Nevada officials in demanding DOL reverse a defunding and closure decision, DOL decided to continue funding SNJC. She said she would continue fighting for government support for programs serving young Nevadans and employers looking to hire them.

Within the lookback window, Cortez Masto's office reported a concrete delivery: prior advocacy to keep Sierra Nevada Job Corps funded succeeded, and she recommitted to continued federal support for youth job training and employer hiring pipelines.

Cortez Masto led a bipartisan Nevada letter demanding DOL reverse its decision to defund and close Nevada's Job Corps Program. The release said Sierra Nevada Job Corps had served about 25,000 Nevadans, graduated more than 500 vocational students a year, and connected young adults ages 16-24 with employers.

Shows serious concrete action by Cortez Masto to protect the named Job Corps program from closure and preserve job training support for young Nevadans and Nevada employers.

The enacted FY2024 Labor-HHS-Education appropriations law provided $1,760,155,000 for Job Corps, including $1,603,325,000 for Job Corps Operations available July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025 and $123,000,000 for Job Corps center construction, rehabilitation, and acquisition available through June 30, 2027.

Federal law continued substantial government support for Job Corps, including operational and facility funding during Cortez Masto's later Senate service.

DOL announced nearly $162 million through five cooperative agreements to expand Registered Apprenticeship and train thousands of Americans for jobs in shipbuilding, defense industrial base, emerging technology, telecommunications, information technology, and automotive sectors. At least 85 percent of each award flows to eligible apprenticeship sponsors across all states and territories.

Within the lookback window, the federal government continued major workforce-training support for programs serving workers and employers, though this source does not tie the award specifically to Cortez Masto or Sierra Nevada Job Corps.

Assessments

Cortez Masto materially advanced the promised outcome as a sitting U.S. senator by voting for FY2024 appropriations that continued substantial Job Corps funding and later leading Nevada officials in pressuring DOL to reverse the defunding and closure of Sierra Nevada Job Corps. DOL’s decision to continue funding the named program directly matches the promise to keep fighting for government support for youth job training and employer hiring programs in Nevada.
