Reagan proposes new job training act to replace CETA
The Reagan administration proposed a Job Training Act financed by $1.8 billion in block grants to states starting next fall. It aims to train disadvantaged youth 16 to 25, fund on the job training with local industries, and continue a reduced Job Corps program. Labor Secretary Donovan said it would not immediately cut unemployment but build long term skills. AFL-CIO leaders criticized the plan as underfunded and insufficient for displaced workers.

Committees reject deeper domestic cuts urged by Reagan
House and Senate Appropriations Committees say domestic programs are already cut to the bone and cannot meet President Reagan’s demand for an additional 14.2 billion in reductions. Subcommittee chairs tell Senate Chairman Hatfield no further cuts can be made. The House committee passed a report stating there will not be significant reductions in current domestic funding levels.
