(voicer) - Senators Mark Warner and Tim Kaine broke the news on Friday, saying more than 17-million-dollars in federal funding will help grow workforce developments in Northern Virginia and Hampton Roads. The money from the U.S. Department of Labor will also expand the state's Registered Apprenticeship programming in industries like education, supply chain and clean energy. The lawmakers say creating jobs is one of their top priorities, which is why they were excited to help pass a series of related federal laws over the past few years. The latest effort is expected to give residents access to more high-quality training programs and new opportunities. I'm Madison Roberts.
