We aim to address the workforce needs of the residential construction industry by proposing legislation to expand training and education opportunities at junior, community colleges, and technical education schools. This initiative seeks to equip more people with the necessary skills for well-paying jobs in construction, particularly in rural and underserved areas, helping to bolster local economies and increase affordable housing availability.
