H.R. 5748 · 116th Congress
Jobs, On-the-Job Earn-While-You-Learn Training, and Apprenticeships for Young African-Americans Act
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 116th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Jobs, On-the-Job "Earn While You Learn" Training, and Apprenticeships for Young African-Americans Act
This bill requires the Department of Labor to encourage labor unions, general contractors, and businesses that will rebuild infrastructure, transportation systems, technology and computer networks, and energy distribution systems to actively recruit, hire, train, and provide apprenticeships to African Americans ages 18 to 39 through existing jobs, apprenticeships, and programs. Labor must help coordinate such recruitment.
The jobs, training, and apprenticeships must be conducted in conjunction with Labor, labor unions and associations involved in infrastructure rebuilding, and the National Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee.
Labor unions, contractors, and businesses involved with such infrastructure or systems must recruit by seeking assistance from the African American community, churches, and civil rights organizations.
