AI Summary

This bill appropriates $450,000 from the workforce development fund in fiscal year 2026 to the commissioner of employment and economic development, specifically to provide a grant to Jobs Foundation for its Repowered workforce readiness program. The funding is designed to support direct training, support services, safety enhancements, and economic assistance for formerly incarcerated individuals who are experiencing significant employment barriers. This is a one-time appropriation, meaning the funding is not recurring and is intended for a specific, limited-time purpose. The goal appears to be helping individuals with criminal records successfully reenter the workforce by providing comprehensive support that addresses multiple challenges they may face when seeking employment.
