Massachusetts Business Coalition on Skills - Conference Budget Letter

The Massachusetts Business Coalition on Skills (MBCS) appreciates your ongoing efforts to prepare an FY 2022 budget that prioritizes economic recovery and invests in workforce skills development. The MBCS is a coalition of 27 diverse business organizations from across the state that advocates for equitable skills development policies so our current and future workforce can meet employers’ needs. As you reconcile the differences between the House and Senate spending plans, the MBCS urges you to support the funding amounts for the following two line-items because they expand access to innovative education and training opportunities.
