Washington, D.C . – After months of listening to Americans speaking out, one thing is crystal clear: putting Americans back to work is the nation’s top priority for Congress. And after kicking off the summer with a week of jobs solutions, House Republicans are closing out a series of theme weeks on AmericaSpeakingOut.com by again focusing on job creation. Rep. Brett Guthrie, a former small business owner, knows that better trained workers leads to better jobs. He is offering a solution, the Workforce Investment Improvement Act, to reform federal job training programs to ensure they get better results at this critical time for American workers. Rep. Guthrie’s proposal would consolidate duplicative and wasteful government programs so that taxpayer funds are used to support education and job training for American workers and not to subsidize Washington bureaucracy. Rep. Guthrie explains his idea in a video message and has posted his idea on AmericaSpeakingOut.com to allow all Americans to weigh in.
