These apprenticeships don’t just teach a trade; they open doors to long-term careers, economic mobility & the dignity that comes with skilled work. I’m committed to expanding access to these opportunities and ensuring every resident has a pathway to thrive.

Seeing these programs up close reaffirmed how essential strong career pathways are—especially for young people and adults seeking stable, family-sustaining jobs right here in DC.

Thank you iupat dc 51 and Linus midatlantic for hosting me!
