In
February 2003, JFF submitted comments to the U.S. House of
Representatives, Education and Workforce Committee on the
reauthorization of the Workforce Investment Act. The comments focus on
the adult provisions of the Act, informed by JFF research conducted
with employers, employer organizations, and others on the strengths and
weaknesses of the current workforce development system from the
perspective of employers and their low-wage, low-skill employees.
