Senators Warnock and Durbin introduced the Investing in Tomorrow’s Workforce Act (H.R. 7585) in February 2026, directing the Labor Secretary to award competitive AI education grants for pilot projects lasting up to four years. The bill prioritises populations facing employment barriers including women, people of colour, and low-income workers. If passed, it would create the first federal mechanism specifically targeting AI workforce training access for non-technical populations. The bill remains in committee as of April 2026.
