Retrain America utilizing Unemployment Insurance, A National Job Policy is Required to meet Demands for High Tech Skills

Petitions | The White House

Our petition is to require the Department of Labor to establish a National Policy for Retraining Americans through the use of Unemployment Insurance. The Department of Labor should not allow a mismatched patch work of each state developing policies which will in most cases not be in the interest of the nation.

 Workers collecting unemployment should be required to attend skill improvement or retraining classes offered by employers or community colleges in their area of expertise or in cases where skills are no longer marketable, retraining would be offered.

Bloomberg reports:

 "The inability to locate employees with the right abilities is holding back manufacturing, the industry that led the U.S. out of the worst recession since the 1930s, just as the economy shows signs of cooling. The number of factory jobs waiting to be filled climbed to 326,000 in March, the most since November 2007, according to data from the Labor Department."

 A Quote from the big man him self

"Too many young kids — particularly black kids — are still dropping out of school way too early. This country will never compete globally when nearly one in four kids fails to complete high school on time.

For you parents out there: Don't just encourage your children to complete high school, which should be a basic step toward a much bigger education. I was fortunate to have a mother who understood the value of education, even as she saw me join the NBA and have a successful basketball career. My mom knew that education not only would help me down the road, it also would make me a better person."

Identity Passport to Freedom (Nine-Step Success Process): Stedman Graham: Books

Identity: Passport to Freedom Booklet

Many of us spend years trying to find out who we are and, sadly, too many of us never do.  If we fail to find ourselves, we risk letting others define us by our race, gender, and background.  We buy into the labels that keep us in a box and, as a result of those limitations, never realize our greatest potential.  Identity: Passport to Freedom identifies a growing need for people of all ages to create “passports” to their true potential and offers a unique perspective that allows them to accomplish that end.

The booklet is available in a small, passport-sized format, making it easy for the reader to slip it into a jacket pocket or a purse.  In this easily accessible size, the book is constantly on hand for daily educational or motivational reading.

Full-length hardcover version forthcoming in 2012.
