Bill > SF1745

This bill appropriates a total of $1.2 million from the workforce development fund over two fiscal years (2026 and 2027), with $600,000 allocated in each year. The money will be given to the commissioner of employment and economic development specifically to provide a grant to Emerge Community Development. The grant is intended to support workforce development initiatives in Minneapolis, including programs at the Emerge Career and Technical Center, Cedar Riverside Opportunity Center, and Emerge Second Chance programs. These programs appear aimed at providing job training, career support, and opportunities for skill development, potentially focusing on populations that may face barriers to traditional employment. By dedicating these funds, the state legislature seeks to strengthen workforce capabilities and economic opportunities in the Minneapolis area.
