Today, coalitions of business leaders and economic organizations have come together to release two community-sign on letters that call for robust appropriations for the Regional Technology and Innovation Hubs (Tech Hubs) program and the recently re-authorized Economic Development Administration (EDA)’s Workforce Training Grants and State Grant Pilot Program.
Congratulations to the six Tech Hub designees that this week received Implementation Grants, totaling approximately $210 million, as part of a new round of funding from Congress.
America Achieves, the national nonprofit dedicated to ensuring that everyone has a clear path to a good job and a career with upward mobility, congratulates Congress on the passage of several important bipartisan legislative measures. These include the reauthorization of the Economic Development Administration (EDA) and the continued commitment to the Regional Tech Hubs Program.
