Spent the morning w/ the California Council of Goodwills, learning more about the opps & challenges they face as leaders in employment social enterprise. Goodwill is SO much more than just a place for donations & thrifting! I encourage you to learn what goes on behind the scenes.

[California Labor Secretary Stewart Knox @CALaborSec]

Proud that @CAgovernor, @CALaborAgency, @Cal_HHS & other state agencies here and across the country are teaming up to expand the #HealthcareWorkforce as part of the Next Generation of the Healthcare Workforce Collaborative led by @NatlGovsAssoc.

So I am one of the millions of Americans who has tested positive for COVID. In hospital now for monitoring for shortness of breath but hopefully out soon. I was cautious but this really does happen to everyone. Stay safe out there!

We need to build bridges as we rebuild the economy—bridges to high road jobs with fair wages—and support both working people and employers who view investments in the workforce as essential for their business’ success. https://t.co/HZjgigJNUs #InternationalWorkersDay

If you are working fewer hours because your children’s school is closed and you need to be there for them, you may apply for unemployment insurance. There is no medical certification needed. https://t.co/uqyVPMOMEK

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

BREAKING: CA has waived the 1 week waiting period for those unemployed or disabled as a result of COVID-19.

If a medical professional says you’re unable to work, if your hours have been reduced, or your employer has shut down -- you can file a claim.

After High Road to Public Sector Summit, got to spend time with workers, including day laborers from Pomona Economic Opportunities Center, at IDEPSCA, who shared their experiences with wage theft, automation, job insecurity. #CAFutureOfWork @CALimmigrant

Investments in skills pay off for businesses, workers and their families!

[National Skills Coalition @SkillsCoalition]

Thank you to @RepHorsford and @RepGuthrie for introducing the SKILL UP Act! This bill would empower businesses to invest in workers who need it the most by improving the Work Opportunity Tax Credit. Learn more in our skills blog: https://t.co/Iewy0B19ic

[Julie A. Su @JulieSuLabor]

Too often, centers of power/wealth are assumed to have the answers but the best ideas are coming from people historically relegated to the margins, including workers themselves. (1/2) #CAFutureofWork

@SkillsCoalition @Katie_SpikerNSC High quality wrap-around support can make all the difference in completing training and finding new jobs!

@JulieSuCA: 50% of #California population makes $15 or less. We have to think about #skills but also the #quality of jobs. #CAtalent2020
