I've seen a lot of businesses who hire individuals with disability with disabilities, cafes that are thriving, new businesses that have opened. It's actually a very just exciting trend in the district where the community is involved and invested. We've also seen a lot of second career older Americans who are getting trained for a new career as a result of workforce development. Can you tell me why the Department of Labor even cares about programs like diversity, equity and inclusion? Thank you, Congresswoman. (01:43–01:55)
