A Stronger Workforce for America Act Advances in the House
As manufacturers across the country continue to face persistent workforce challenges, Congress is again considering how to modernize the nation’s primary federal workforce development law. A Stronger Workforce for America Act, H.R. 8210, would reauthorize and update the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), which provides federal support for employment, education, training, and related workforce services. The bill advanced out of the House Committee on Education and Workforce on April 21, 2026, along party lines.
