Bill Summary
A resolution to urge state and federal administrators to increase the number of women in skilled trade professions and to encourage industry leaders and labor unions to address existing and future shortages in the skilled trades workforce.
AI Summary
This Resolution urges state and federal administrators to increase the number of women in skilled trade professions by improving access to training and employment opportunities, acknowledging the significant shortage of skilled workers in trades like electricians, carpenters, and plumbers, a problem expected to worsen as current workers retire and infrastructure projects demand more labor. It highlights that women are severely underrepresented in these well-paying fields, often holding lower-wage jobs, and that increasing their participation could benefit many households, especially those with children. The Resolution also encourages industry leaders and labor unions to actively address current and future workforce shortages by hiring and training women and minorities, recognizing existing private efforts that support women in trades.
