You guys are really showing the rest of the country again how it is done! Thanks on behalf of refugees all around the country and on behalf of the patients that they will care for.
It’s unanimous! With a 100-0 vote, my Refugee Nursing Licensure Bill to tap into the talents of immigrants & refugees to address our nursing shortage, passed out of the House of Delegates! Thanks @CWS_global @VirginiaHHA @InovaHealth @hcavirginia @VHCAVCAL for your support!

Read why @JosephBFuller of @Harvardhbs believes “educators and employers are failing … to create a steady pipeline of #workers required to keep the U.S. economy competitive and prospering.”

As our honored guest, Congress presented President Zelenskyy with a flag from our Capitol and he in turn presented us with his own flag, filled with messages from soldiers on the frontlines in Ukraine.
A symbol of our partnership and the shared values we defend.
A crucial element in safeguarding our democracy from demagogues and their cronies. Thanks for voting for it!
The Electoral Count Reform Act is a critical safeguard, to protect your vote and our democratic process.
Looking forward to voting on this bill to ensure the will of the American people is protected when it comes to our presidential elections.

via @nytimes such a crucial mental shift in how we think about putting students into a debtor’s prison just as they are starting out in life. nytimes.com/2022/05/13/your-…
Danke @Mark_Pieth: Ihr Votum für Transparenz und eine genaue Untersuchung und vor allem auch Aufsicht über die #CHBundesanwaltschaft hilft dem Ruf der Schweiz mehr als die Entrüstung aus dem Bundeshaus. Es ist noch nicht zu spät zu handeln. via @srfnews srf.ch/news/international/ve…
@RiederBeat, diese Vorwürfe - vor allem von @BillBrowder scheinen nicht haltlos sondern sehr konkret zu sein, vor allem was die Bundesanwaltschaft angeht. Da besteht Handlungsbedarf via @srfnews srf.ch/news/schweiz/schweiz-…
Und hier noch das Detail von @Billbrowder den ein Schweizerischer Parlamentsausschuss in die Schweiz einladen könnte um CH zu helfen sich konkret mit dem Problem um die russischen kleptokraten zu kümmern. protect-eu.mimecast.com/s/Yz…
Thanks for coming to Monterey for the California Apprenticeship Conference 2022. You all are the best panel of movers and shakers for mo' betta apprenticeships! #apprenticeshipworks, #apprenticeship @RebeccaVHanson @daniel_bustillo @KansaraSabrina @ApprenticeNorco
Ich hoffe das @10vor10 und @honegger diese Sache ernst nehmen. Ob wir Putin in die Hand spielen ist die Frage, nicht ob CH brüskiert ist. @BillBrowder macht keine leichtfertigen Anschuldigungen.

En visite à #SanFrancisco, je discute de la mise en œuvre de l'accord de coopération signé en novembre dernier entre la 🇨🇭 et les 🇺🇸 dans le domaine de la formation professionnelle 👨🔧👩🔧. Nous sommes sur le bon chemin, mais il reste encore passablement de travail à effectuer.
Some clear-eyed policy advice here! The disease from which we need to recover is clearly not just pandemic related job-loss. We need to help our economy kick the addiction to low-wage jobs which treats workers as dispensable. Only better jobs can lead to a true recovery.
Piling on here I know, but....we don't have a labor shortage problem or a skills gap...we have a jobs problem. There are not enough good jobs. Here are some concrete steps for implementing a national, good jobs strategy... newamerica.org/education-pol… via @newamerica @NewAmericaLabor
It’s been a convenient and persistent myth that we can’t apply European lessons to the US, but I suspect more analysis will reveal that more generous job retention and family leave policies there, have made a huge difference in avoiding the big resignation. – at Bahamas
A consistent theme in my graduate education was the European labor mkts, w/ all those pro-worker policies, were too rigid and hopelessly inefficient. And yet... nytimes.com/2021/11/29/opini…

How to #scale #apprenticeship ? Insights from SPR's authors of the playbook to do just that. #NAW2021 caihub.foundationccc.org/Por… @FoundationCCC @IrvineFdn (Thread 1 of 4)
This is an important ‘coming-of-age moment’ for #youthapprenticeship. Awesome analysis by some of the sharpest minds @NewAmericaEd. Makes programs and certificates more portable to boot which will bring more employers to the table! @Social_Policy – at California, USA

Happy #NAW Everyone! Ancient wisdom for the 21st Century: #apprenticeship has the potential of being the ultimate equity engine. Grateful @Social_Policy to be working with @NewAmericaEd, @jfftweets, @CareerWiseUSA and and so many others to make it so!
Today @USDOL celebrates the start of National Apprenticeship Week!
Registered apprenticeships are a proven job training strategy and a key part of an inclusive recovery. Through @POTUS’ #BuildBackBetter framework, we can expand these opportunities across the nation. #NAW2021
