After a number of campuses in the national Job Corps program were told they were being shut down by the Labor Dept and the results of Elon Musk's DOGE investigation, supporters filed injunctions and court cases have dragged on from summer 2025 until Congress stepped in. Legislators superseded temporary injunctions that were keeping Job Corps programs running and funded the program through June 2027.
Marion, Virginia's campus Admission Manager Heather Goodpasture ignored warnings not to talk about the issues, but she did. Along with other defenders, they made the case for the value of the program.
In this episode, Goodpasture reviews the complicated and devastating steps in reviving the program for now and also describes basic needs for bringing the program back to its full measure from before the shut down.
