On the recordJune 9, 1994
I rise today to urge my colleagues to join me in revolutionizing our unemployment system, a system which is better at issuing unemployment checks than getting people into a job so they can earn a paycheck. As a human resources and employment consultant for over 20 years, I have consulted with too many businesses that have jobs, but cannot find workers who are appropriately trained, and I have met with too many unemployed workers that do not know where to get the training and services they need to be employed or reemployed. I know first-hand that what we need is a system that trains people for the skilled jobs that are needed in our communities. That is why I am a cosponsor of the Reemployment Act of 1994. This bill transforms the current unemployment system into a reemployment system that guides workers into the jobs of the future that pay a family wage. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to cosponsor the Reemployment Act of 1994.
