Vice President Harris Visits Wisconsin to Announce Apprenticeship Executive Order

Vice President Kamala Harris recently visited bricklayers and other union apprentices at a new Metro Transit facility being built in Madison, Wisconsin. There she discussed the benefits of union apprenticeship programs and announced the Biden-Harris Administration’s executive order to expand registered apprenticeships.

The Madison Metro Transit facility is one of more than 46,000 infrastructure projects currently breaking ground that are funded by the bipartisan infrastructure bill signed by President Biden in 2021. “This work that we see behind us is a function of that partnership around how we can get federal dollars out to local governments and local communities in a way that they then invest in the talent,” Vice President Harris said at the event
