Adding flights to DCA’s congested runway – the busiest in the country – poses significant threat to passenger and crew safety, as evidenced by the recent near collision. Today, Secretary Pete Buttigieg, the highest transportation authority in the country, agreed: we must prioritize safety.
At today’s Foreign Relations Committee hearing I echoed the voices of the Sudanese Diaspora in VA and the need to end the war and provide humanitarian assistance to Sudan. I’ll continue to support the efforts of U.S. Special Envoy for Sudan Tom Perriello to secure a democratic and peaceful future for Sudan.
Now more than ever, high-quality, short-term programs are a crucial step to preparing our workforce for the jobs of tomorrow. It’s time to expand Pell Grants through the JOBS Act to cover these programs. Thank you Senator Tim Kaine and Senator Mike Braun for promoting this legislation.
No one should be shut out of job training because they can’t afford it. Alongside Senator Tim Kaine, Senator Mike Braun & a big bipartisan team, I’m pushing for the JOBS Act so folks can use Pell Grants to cover job training, helping more Americans access it & fill the jobs of the future.
#PellYes is still alive and well in the #JobsAct . Let’s get it done for the more than 4 million students in these critical workforce training programs. Senator Tim Kaine
