Astoria State Senator Michael Gianaris and Fresh Meadows Assembly Member Nily Rozic introduced the Good Jobs Guarantee Act in Albany this month, which could unlock $1 billion in private funding for workforce development.
The legislation was introduced in partnership with Pursuit, a workforce development company based in Long Island City that has a proven job training program for low-income New Yorkers. Pursuit’s fellows go through full-time training, with no upfront cost, before receiving job placements at leading tech companies.
