Is this part of the plan to have an educated workforce that can keep up with the needs of industry, so we don't have to outsource!
Yesterday, President Donald Trump released his proposed budget for FY2018. The budget includes dramatic cuts to adult education funding and complete elimination of many federal programs that support adult literacy, workforce development, and human services. The Department of Education is facing an overall cut of $9 billion (13%), including a $95 million cut (16%) to Adult Education and Family Literacy state grants.
Other key points that impact adult literacy are:
15% cut to Career and Technical Education
10% cut in family assistance grants for the Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF)
Complete elimination of:
Institute for Museum and Library Services
Corporation for National and Community Services (includes Americorps and VISTA volunteering programs)
Community Service Block Grants
Community Development Block Grants
21st Century Community Learning Centers
Corporation for Public Broadcasting (includes initiatives that support HSE learning)
