State Rep. Lezlye Zupkus (R-89) co-sponsored a proposal at the State Capitol which aims to better educate parents, guidance counselors and students about the exciting and advantageous careers in manufacturing.
Zupkus said the bill, which was recently passed unanimously by the House of Representatives, seeks to re-introduce the manufacturing industry to middle-school and high school students through a hands-on, authentic industry experience.
The bill, which has the backing of the business community, aims to meet the needs of employers, create new middle class jobs in greater Bristol, and grow Connecticut’s economy. It awaits a vote in the state Senate.
