Comment from the contributor:
Career and technical education helps prepare youth and adults for the future by building the skills that are essential to strengthening the American workforce and ensuring the nation’s economic competitiveness. Over the past few years the primary federal funding stream for career and technical education, the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act (Perkins) has been gradually decreased, despite increased student enrollments, equipment costs and need for skilled workers.
Stand up and demand that Congress increase Perkins funds to acceptable levels to ensure that America is able to compete in this ever-changing global economy.
