and invest in career and technical education to provide young people with training for good-paying jobs
Seth Magaziner will support investing in career and technical education to provide young people with training for good-paying jobs.
Occurrences
My bipartisan Clean Energy Workforce Act invests in career and technical education to connect the next generation with good-paying jobs in the clean energy economy.
Last year I led 31 of my colleagues in sending this committee a letter in support of $64.4 million for CTE Innovation and Modernization grants, and I look forward to doing so again this year.
Evidence
The House site says Magaziner and Delegate James Moylan reintroduced the bipartisan Clean Energy Workforce Act, which would create a grant program to fund CTE programs training young people for clean-energy construction careers.
In prepared remarks for an appropriations member day hearing, Magaziner urged more funding for CTE Innovation and Modernization grants, said CTE prepares young people for good-paying jobs, and noted he led 31 colleagues in support of $64.4 million.
Assessments
The promise was to support investing in career and technical education, not necessarily to single-handedly enact a new program. Magaziner materially supported that goal in office by backing CTE appropriations funding, leading/signing CTE funding requests early in his first House term, and later reintroducing the Clean Energy Workforce Act to create CTE grants for young people entering clean-energy construction careers. Because the support occurred while he was serving in the federal office tied to the campaign promise, and there is evidence from his first term, this counts as delivered in the same term.
