An Act Increasing Access to Skilled Trades for Individuals with Senior High School or High School Education, Strengthening Technical-Vocational Employability, and Promoting Blue-Collar Dignity

In plain language

The bill would stop employers from requiring a college degree for blue‑collar jobs when a high‑school or technical‑vocational credential is enough, standardize skill certifications, expand apprenticeships, give tax breaks to hiring firms, and run a nationwide campaign to improve the image of skilled‑trade work.
