House Concurrent Resolution No. by Representative Freiberg calls on the United States Congress to provide states with optional flexibility under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA). The resolution emphasizes the need for states to integrate and enhance the delivery of federally funded assistance programs, which are crucial for supporting individuals, particularly those facing significant barriers to employment. It highlights the challenges faced by residents in Louisiana, where many struggle to navigate fragmented service systems, and points to successful models, such as Utah's "one door" policy, which has streamlined access to services and improved employment outcomes.

The resolution advocates for a similar approach nationwide, allowing states to implement integrated service delivery systems that can lead to cost efficiencies and better resource allocation. By memorializing Congress to take necessary actions, the resolution aims to empower states to create more effective support structures for their citizens, ultimately helping them transition from poverty to opportunity. A copy of the resolution will be sent to the relevant congressional leaders and Louisiana's congressional delegation to further this initiative.
