What it does
The Labor Market Response Act would require applicants for health profession opportunity grants under the Social Security Act to include evidence of in-demand jobs or worker shortages in their applications. This change affects organizations seeking federal grants to train individuals for healthcare careers by mandating that they demonstrate alignment with current labor market needs. The bill amends Section 2008 of the Social Security Act to add this application requirement and takes effect on October 1, 2025. It was introduced in the House and referred to the Committee on Ways and Means.
