The bill proposes an appropriation of $1,000,000 from the workforce development fund for fiscal year 2026, specifically designated for a grant to Ramsey County. This funding is intended to support workforce development programming in partnership with the city of St. Paul. Key initiatives included in this programming are the Learn and Earn program, which focuses on creating training pathways for youth and young adults aged 18-30, as well as a technology training program and a driver's license academy.

This appropriation is a one-time allocation and will remain available until June 30, 2028, allowing for the implementation and sustainability of the workforce development initiatives aimed at enhancing employment opportunities for the targeted age group in the region.
