Thank you very much to all of our witnesses today. This hearing has provided invaluable insight as we move forward on reauthorizing WIA.

We also want to be sure that we encourage innovation and risk-taking because nobody knows best.

I think that the innovation comes through those very strong partnerships, and there are resources out there.

Thank you and thank you for that endorsement. I worked very hard to get that into the economic recovery package.

We must invest in our workforce to keep America safe, secure and productive.

We all want to see stronger evaluation and greater accountability.

I appreciate both of you, in your testimony, speaking to the need for strong partnerships as we work to make sure that our workers of today have the skills they need.

With a new Administration and Congress, we now have an opportunity for a successful reauthorization of this important law.

We need to think more strategically about how we align our training needs with our larger economic goals.

I will leave the record open, for any members who want to submit a statement to the record.

America's working families deserve nothing less.
