“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to highlight the proposed plans for a career and technical education center in my district. Lamont Cornwell of the Saline County Economic Development Corporation presented detailed plans to the Arkansas Economic Development Commission on June 8 for a center that is specifically aimed at training our State's skilled workforce community. The center would allow students to enroll in science and technology career preparatory classes, careers that will only become more invaluable as our Nation moves forward. The center will impact parents and children of all socioeconomic statuses and positively change our technical career education environment in central Arkansas. As co-chair of the Congressional Skilled American Workforce Caucus, I was encouraged to see the recent passage of H.R. 2353, the Strengthening Career and Technical Education Act. I am encouraged to see leaders in Saline County step up and embrace a passion for our skilled workforce community. Honoring Foster Parents”
