Historically Black colleges and universities have been putting in the work. For years, they have always had to punch above their weight, but they play a critical role in creating those jobs and in ensuring that we have a diverse, trained workforce for new technology, for research, and advanced manufacturing opportunities in Georgia and, indeed, across the country.

When we invest in all of our young people, we position our economy to be strong for 10 years, 20 years, 30 years into the future. The purpose of this motion is very simple.
