CHAPTER 11-C. DISPLACED WORKERS RETRAINING PROGRAM
§1841. Legislative intent; purpose
A. The legislature finds and declares that, because of state environmental laws, rules, and regulations, many industries have chosen either to relocate to other states or to make technological changes in their operations to conform to the state environmental standards.
B. The legislature further finds and declares that these instances of industrial relocation or technological modification have left unemployed many workers in these affected industries, and businesses and industries dependent on them.
C. The legislature therefore enacts this Chapter to establish a program which, through the retraining of such displaced workers, shall help relieve the onerous burden of unemployment.
D. In no event shall state funds be used to fund this Chapter.
