Clarification Regarding TCIEA Acronym

               

Dear Amanda,

 

I apologize for the confusion caused by my previous email regarding the
acronym "TCIEA." The correct name of the legislation we are referencing is
the Transformation to Competitive Integrated Employment Act.

Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards,
Kehinde

Request for Inclusion of TCIEA in WIOA Reauthorization

 

Amanda Lincoln

Minority Staff Director, Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and
Pensions

 

Dear Amanda,

I am writing to respectfully request that the [House Education and Workforce
Committee/Senate HELP Committee] include the Transforming the Culture of
Incarceration and Employment for All (TCIEA) in the upcoming reauthorization
of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA).

Incorporating the TCIEA into the reauthorization would effectively end the
practice of paying subminimum wages to individuals with disabilities.
Additionally, it would eliminate the need for a separate government program
to oversee special wage certificate holders.

Thank you for your attention to this critical issue. I appreciate your
consideration of this important change.

Sincerely,
Kehinde
