The incompetence on display from our Secretary of Defense is unacceptable. It's time for the Trump administration to put their money where their mouth is and show us they know how to hire based on merit like they claim.

13 years ago, President @BarackObama signed the Affordable Care Act into law – protecting folks with pre-existing conditions & bringing down costs for families nationwide. I’m focused on protecting the ACA and keeping up the fight to make health care more affordable.
Hartwick: “This includes creating opportunities for students to learn about manufacturing through career exploration programs, strengthening training opportunities, and providing solutions to other issues that impact employee well-being, such as childcare.”
Carson: Our program is proof that by working together, educators, businesses and policymakers can make a real difference in our communities.” @RCCDecaturIL
“Everybody deserves a chance to build a life they can be proud of, and that starts with learning skills that employers value.” - @Rev_Carson7, Assistant VP of External Affairs at @RCCDecaturIL & IMA Ed Foundation Board Member, who oversees the @EnRichRCC training program.
You can feel the energy in Gina Taylor's Essential Skills class. The students in @RCCDecaturIL College were a joy to speak to and listen to. This curriculum should be required for students at every college. #twill
