During Wednesday’s Congressional Breakfast inside the Capitol Visitor Center, four members of Congress – Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL), Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV), Sen. Gary Peters (D-MI), and Rep. Hal Rogers (R-KY) – were honored for their longstanding support of the public workforce system.
In accepting her award, Sen. Rosen noted that, “workforce development is not just policy, it’s personal,” referencing the lives changed across the nation. Sen. Peters acknowledged the vital role played by advocates, stating “it is more imperative than ever that you are here.”
Rep. Rogers proudly accepted his award in his office later in the day, thanking the Eastern Kentucky Concentrated Employment Program for their exceptional community impact. |
