Workforce Flexibility Act

Sponsored By: Representative Taylor, David J. [R-OH-2]

Introduced

Summary

Removes the statutory 75% requirement that certain WIOA youth funds go to out-of-school youth. The bill would let local workforce areas use those youth funds more flexibly for different local priorities and program models.

Show full summary
  • Local workforce boards and service providers: Would be allowed to shift youth funds across activities so they can support in-school programs, employer partnerships, or other locally chosen services.
  • Out-of-school youth programs: Would no longer have a guaranteed 75% share of these funds, making their funding less predictable and tying support more to local decisions.
  • In-school youth and other training activities: Could receive a larger share of the same youth funds if areas reallocate; the text does not add new funding or change eligibility rules.
