Excerpt from Hearing of the Committee on Labor and Human Resources United States Senate One Hundred Third Congress Second Session: On Examining Proposed Legislation to Consolidate Job Training Programs Into One Program to Provide Incentives for States to Train Workers March 16, 1994 The committee met, pursuant to notice, at 2:33 p.m., in room SD-430, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Senator Howard M. Metzenbaum presiding. Present: Senators Metzenbaum, Dodd, and Durenberger. Opening Statement of Senator Metzenbaum Senator Metzenbaum Senator Metzenbaum. Secretary Reich, I am pleased to welcome you to our committee´s first hearing on the Reemployment and Training Act of 1994. I have intentionally worn my little button that says "S. 55 Now". I was informed this morning that the President is supportive of the legislation and will help get it passed, and I look forward to working with him and you and anybody else that wants to join the team to pass S. 55. I think today we direct our attention not to the issue of S. 55 but to the whole question of reemployment and training. I don´t have to tell you that we are all proud of the fact that our economy is finally emerging from a long recession, and the President and you and the other members of his team have a right to be very proud of that fact. In the first year of the Clinton administration, almost two million jobs were created in the private sector. That is encouraging news, but for the eight-and-a-half million workers that are still looking for work, it is of little consolation. No matter how much the economy improves, their old jobs are gone for good, and that is a matter of concern for you and me and for them as well. Nineteen-ninety-three saw the highest percentage of permanent job loss ever recorded by your Department. Seventy-five percent of all laid-off workers will never return to their former jobs. Permanent layoffs due to increased global competition and overseas plant relocation have long plagued manufacturing workers. Job loss is no longer the exclusive problem of these blue-collar workers. Tens of thousands of white-collar workers have found themselves in the unemployment line, their jobs the casualties of corporate downsizing. Others have lost their jobs to low-cost part-time and temporary workers hired for low wages and no benefits.
