Hello NCL colleagues,

National Skills Coalition has released our analysis of the HEROES Act.
Bottom line: It's nowhere near enough. We're very disappointed that there
is such a relatively tiny investment in workforce development, and no
dedicated funding for adult education.

We'll have a lot more to say in the coming days about the next phase of
advocacy with Congress.

-Amanda
