AB 1804 – Employment Training Fund

Fresno Chamber Position: SUPPORT

AB 1804 protects and maximizes the amount of training dollars that stay in the Employment Training Fund (ETF). AB 1804 specifically eliminates the provision that allows for the diversion of ETF dollars to the Department of Social Services (DSS). As one of the State’s only discretionary economic development resources, the Employment Training Panel (ETP) has been an essential tool in addressing the staggering 12.5% unemployment rate, to create new job opportunities and most importantly to help with the retention of jobs.
