Bill overview
This bill aims to prioritize local workforce development during Salton Sea restoration projects in California. It requires state agencies undertaking projects exceeding $1 million to ensure that contractors and subcontractors utilize a skilled and trained workforce, specifically from the building and construction trades, starting January 1, 2026. The bill seeks to boost wages, improve job quality, and expand apprenticeship opportunities in the Imperial Valley, addressing economic disparities in the region. It also includes exceptions for projects covered by existing project labor agreements.
